⚒️ The Floating Marble Shelf: Thoughtful Planning for a Seamless Finish ⚒️ The construction of the floating marble shelf required meticulous foresight. Supported by seven custom-fabricated metal L brackets, each one securely bolted to the solid wall. These brackets were strategically concealed behind the marble and plaster, creating a clean, seamless appearance. To achieve this hidden support system, precise planning was essential. We needed to ensure that the brackets were fabricated and installed on-site well in advance, before the plastering and waterproofing stages commenced. This foresight allowed the design to maintain its minimalist aesthetic while preserving the functionality and strength of the shelf. It’s a subtle detail that ultimately makes a significant impact on the overall finish. #interiordesign #construction #architecture
