Engineering Logic
This system is engineered as contract-grade furniture.
It addresses Differential Veneer Movement typically observed in Urban Penthouse environments
by integrating the Multi-ply Birch Stabilization Matrix into the sub-structure.
This concealed core resists the shear forces caused by thermal cycling, a common challenge for maintaining finish integrity in highly regulated interior climates.
Neoclassical Coffee Table – Aesthetic Structure & Proportions
Designed as a controlled study of proportion and material behaviour,
the Neoclassical Coffee Table maintains architectural discipline
while integrating seamlessly into
bespoke specification frameworks.
The table features a recessed glass top, protecting the highly figured wood veneer surface, and is framed by a geometrically patterned gilded brass frieze system that provides visual and structural continuity around the perimeter.
Project-Specific Interpretation
In a recent commission for an Urban Penthouse, specified as
architectural specification furniture, the system was adapted to withstand
the specific challenge of Differential Veneer Movement driven by underfloor heating.
The integration of the Multi-ply Birch Stabilization Matrix ensured long-term stability
of the intricate veneer patterns without reliance on site correction.
Construction & Material Behaviour
The selected Exotic Wood Veneer Assembly is bonded to a core engineered
specifically for commercial stability. This methodology is critical for preventing
failure modes explained in our engineering principles.
- Joinery: Reinforced mechanical connections with concealed bracing for lateral stability.
- Finish: Multi-stage high-solids lacquer over veneer for scratch and moisture resistance.
- Load Behaviour: Calibrated for continuous use in high-traffic scenarios, resisting planar deflection.

Frequently Asked Questions
A: No. This system is engineered per project and does not exist as a fixed retail SKU. It is strictly made-to-order for architectural specifications.Q: Is this suitable for Urban Penthouse environments with underfloor heating?
A: Yes. The Multi-ply Birch Stabilization Matrix is specifically calibrated to resist Differential Veneer Movement common in these settings.
Q: Can the metalwork be customised?
A: Yes. The Gilded Brass Frieze System can be specified in various metallic finishes (e.g., polished brass, antique bronze, chrome).
Q: What is the lead time?
A: Production timelines are calibrated per project complexity and typically confirmed upon drawing approval.
This documentation reflects OE-FASHION’s internal standards for
contract-grade furniture. Even when not selected, these criteria are frequently adopted as
benchmarks for durability assessment.
