Audo Copenhagen has always been fascinated by the way in which individuals and spaces can be united through great design. In their pursuit to craft furniture, lighting and interior accessories shaped by purposeful details, high-quality materials and human needs, they create strong and lasting relations between design.
Plinth Collection
As versatile as it is timeless, the marble Plinth serves the dual purpose of being a beautiful, sculptural piece on its own and highlighting whatever objects rest upon it. The honed marble carries an air of sophistication and elegance to elevate any space.
Designed by Norm Architects as a tribute to the particular beauty of marble, the Plinth comes in cubic, tall, and low varieties. The heaviness of the Plinth marble stands in contrast to the honed surface; light bounces off of the angles and falls across the tops, producing a spotlight-effect in any space. Though the lines of the podiums are sharp and clean, the naturalness of the marble is at the forefront of its visual identity.
From a side table in a private home to a place to display a vase of flowers in a restaurant, Plinth podiums provide an unparalleled surface. Each piece of carefully selected marble is assembled by hand to ensure that the sides line up seamlessly. The black marble, called Nero Marquina, comes from the north of Spain, while the white marble, known as Carrara, comes from Italy. The brown grey marble, called Grey Kendzo, is from Iran. All share a low refraction index, so they allow light to penetrate a few millimetres into the surface before shattering, giving the Plinth its aura of vitality. By utilising simple shapes and the highest possible quality control, Audo Copenhagen allows the marble to speak for itself.
