One log, falling like water
La Paz is a live-edge dining table in solid Guanacaste — four meters long, 150 centimeters wide, and 3.5 inches thick. The top and the waterfall legs are milled from the same log and grain-matched, so the figure runs the full length of the table and falls straight down at both ends. The edges are curved to simulate a bend, and the wood reads as one continuous fall from table to floor.
The name comes from the La Paz waterfall — and from what the piece does to a room. A table this size seats twelve without crowding, yet the form stays quiet: no visible base, no hardware in sight, just wood meeting floor. The live edge is kept along the full length, and natural cracks are stabilized with hand-fitted butterfly keys that read as part of the design.
Finding a Guanacaste log of these dimensions is the real work — wide enough to seat six per side, and large enough to yield matched waterfall legs from the same timber. Each La Paz begins with that search, and no two logs are alike, so no two tables are either.
