David Gill is delighted to present the next evolution of Zaha Hadid’s series of Liquid Glacial tables. The latest version, entitled, Protoytype Liquid Glacial table, was unveiled at David Gill Galleries, St James’s, on October 15 2013. The exhibition will run until 16 November.
The flat table top of the Protoype Liquid Glacial table appears transformed by the subtle waves and ripples evident below the surface which seem to pour into an intense vortex that forms the table legs. Like the previous Liquid Glacial tables, this new table is milled and hand polished to create a pristine finish. The design embeds surface complexity and refraction within a fluid dynamic.

When it was launched in May 2012, the Liquid Glacial collection was acclaimed by collectors and press alike and the table was shortlisted by the Design Museum as one of the ‘Best Designs of 2012’.
“I have always been interested in the concept of fluidity,” says Hadid. “Using all the advances in design, material and manufacturing
technologies, we are now able to achieve even greater results in the work.”
