The top is not a flat slab, but a long trough lined with brushed metal, and this inverse layering of a metal finish into stone sets up a contrast in both finish and form, cool against warm, reflective against matte.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tblack.au\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tom Black<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-597067\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-597067\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-01.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"c310f7d0383c6444e320af06-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ad-1 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"c310f7d0383c6444e320af06-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-597075\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-597075\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-06.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The underside curve lifts the edges off the floor so the table reads as a solid volume that barely touches the ground. The concave channel on top mirrors that curve, turning the center into a controlled void rather than a flat surface. The metal inlay sharpens that void, catching light differently from the travertine and making the negative space feel as intentional as the stone around it, a second reading of the same carved gesture.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-597068\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-597068\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0;

It shares the same exploration of form and material but takes a different approach to curvature. Instead of resting directly on the floor, the curved upper element sits on a rectangular base, and that base is what highlights the juxtaposition between curve and block, between the flowing top and the grounded plinth beneath.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-597071\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-597071\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-03-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-04-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-597072\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-04-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-04-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-597072\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/coffee-table-01-04-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-597073\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-597073\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Tom Black Carves Travertine Tables That Look Like They\u2019re Floating\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/12\/tom-black-carves-travertine-tables-that-look-like-theyre-floating\/side-table-01-06.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The side table effectively rotates the coffee table\u2019s gesture into a more vertical, totem-like object.

The stone offers classic materiality, while the metal introduces a precise, almost industrial note.

The coffee table stretches low and horizontal between seating, the side table stands as a vertical accent beside a sofa or chair, and both share the same carved gesture and material palette. For anyone who likes furniture that behaves like small pieces of architecture, these two feel like a quiet study in how far one curve can go when you pair it with the right material and the right inlay to make the mass feel like it might lift off the floor.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
