Surface design is an exciting arena at the moment, and Israeli-born, Paris-based artist and multi-disciplinary designer Arik Levy is breaking new ground.
Levy, in collaboration with luxury surfaces company Compac, is presenting a new installation at Somerset House as a part of Design Frontiers during London Design Festival.
The designer's new masterpiece is a minimalist setting that will explore the dialogue between the horizontal and vertical parameters of our living environment.
The centrepiece of the installation is a massive sculptural mono-block mineral quartz kitchen island that “floats” within the space like a black iceberg—appearing as though it has been carved from one block of quartz.

Thin vertical slices of different quartz-based slabs of Compac quartz and marble forms the backbone of the installation. The installation will also feature an audio-visual presentation that journeys through the history of Compac.
The London Design Festival is on till September 24.
