01 — Geometry

Elevation strip — every table and pouf in the family at its own height, drawn in a single line

02 — Moodboard

Measured sheet of the Espacio Escultórico at UNAM — the ring of sixty-four concrete wedges drawn in plan over the contours of the lava field, with the section below it
Pedro Ramírez Vázquez's concept sketch for El Paraguas, dated 11 September 1961 — a section through one mast carrying a flat canopy with the water falling free off its rim, annotated in Spanish, with the canopy drawn in plan below and the architect's signature beside it
The Espacio Escultórico from directly above — a ring of sixty-four concrete wedges set into the black lava field at UNAM, scrub and forest all around it
Looking up the column of El Paraguas — the radiating steel ribs of the canopy above, and the water falling in a fine curtain all around it
The courtyard of the Museo Nacional de Antropología across its reflecting pool — the vast flat canopy of El Paraguas carried on a single column, the museum's lattice façades either side
The six stone tops as material samples — two discs in green-grey and white-grey marble, and four rounded rectangles in pale veined marble, dark grey stone and a black-and-bronze figured marble

03 — Tavolini da fumo

The table family on white — four stone tops at different heights and diameters on thin black steel frames
The same table family from a lower angle — the tops overlapping in silhouette, the frames reading as a single thicket of legs
The table cluster in a dark interior, seen from further back — the tops reading as a single stepped surface

04 — Pouf

The pouf family on white — quilted black and white upholstery, round and rectangular, on the same thin black legs
Macro of a white pouf's corner — the quilted grid of the upholstery running into a thin black steel foot
A black pouf and a matching tray beside a sculpted white bath, in a pale bathroom with fluted wall panels

Next project

The master suite's living half — two tan leather sofas and a low walnut coffee table on a grey rug, a walnut credenza under the television against a slatted walnut screen, the bed visible through the screen beyond Viaducto
