The Slab Collection was created by furniture studio Union Wood Co, collaborating with Alyssa Lewis of Studio Block. Boasting a minimal design, the collection features undetailed pieces that focus on the beauty of its wooden materials. The pieces are a true celebration of the natural form and beauty of wood.
Studio Union Wood and Studio Block collaborated for the first time to bring the Slab Collection to life. Customers can marvel at the beautiful woodwork in the collection's three pieces. A dining chair, a counter stool, and a bar stool are intentionally reduced in design to highlight the minimalist beauty of the wooden slabs they are made from—the studios aimed to create something fresh amid the visual noise that surrounds us every day.
