Earth Square is a reinterpretation of the original project that proposes the top developed in square rather than in round shape. It is characterised by a top made of resin and pieces of ancient Kauri wood: it is conceived to be a stylized symbol of the Earth as it was in the origin; in fact the wood pieces represent the continents and the resin parts the oceans. The colour of the wood and the transparence of the resin are able to create a special trick of lights and shadows. The peculiar base in dark iron, with tubular section and visible weld joints, was designed by Renzo and Matteo Piano and is inspired to the original project of the table “Antico” for the initiative Ground Zero…Ground Heroes; in fact it represents the nest of metal rebars remained after the Twin Towers collapsed.
