Room
The wall the table sits against, the door people enter through, the light source it sits under. The room decides the shape first.
Editorial — Room-first furniture
Furniture planned around the room.
Slab & Space is a slow, room-first reading guide about live-edge and epoxy resin dining tables. We start with the wall the table lives against, the walkway around it, and the light that falls across the grain — and only then talk about slab, resin tone, and dimensions.
Written and edited by ThawHome, a small studio that builds made-to-order wood and resin tables.

Room, Material, Scale
Three constant lenses. Every guide on Slab & Space is written through all three, in this order.
Material
Slab species, grain direction, resin tone, and finish. Warm walnut reads very differently from bleached oak beside the same window.
Scale
Length, seat count, and the walkway around the table. Comfort is a function of clearance, not surface area.
