Double Tee

Description

The Double Tee distills a defining element of mid-century modernism into a singular moment. In Gene Leedy’s work, the double tee was a declaration that structure itself should be beautiful. The table honors that legacy, reducing architecture to its essence: a load is carried, a span is expressed, gravity is acknowledged.

Concrete, often seen only as brutal, is treated here with playful precision. Formed by hand through the casting process, the material reveals its ability to hold subtle imperfection within a disciplined geometry. Curves cast soft shadows across the table’s hard faces. The weight of the material is unmistakable, yet it carries a quiet sense of balance.
