From the outset Pawson’s work has focused on ways of approaching fundamental problems of space, proportion, light and materials - themes he also explored in his book Minimum, which examines the notion of simplicity in art, architecture and design across a variety of historical and cultural contexts. Concept Pawson’s design sets one hand-made glass cylinder within another, the outer cylinder aring into a re ned disc lip at its lower edge.
