Overview
Tiber Archways is a modern resituating of ancient Roman architecture. Classical arches structure an undulating, geometric repeat, the deft use of shadowing convincing the eye of its three-dimensionality. Inspired by the marble quarries that lie just outside of Rome, the shapes read as though carved from this coveted material, their subtle veining and gentle coloration creating a trompe l’oeil effect. This clean, striking rendering of the classical speaks to the studio’s passion for resetting traditional design in contemporary terms, working to imbue a modern scheme with a sense of timelessness, or to sharpen a traditional scheme with a modern edge.
