Grid Blocks by Vivian Carbonell – sculptural wood forms with lavender and yellow ceramic tile grids
About Grid Blocks
Grid Blocks are playful sculptural forms that merge minimal geometry with tactile surface contrast. Each piece is hand-cut from solid timbers and features a bold overlay of ceramic tile gridwork—applied to one or more surfaces in radiant hues such as lavender and chartreuse.
These blocks explore the tension between natural grain and human-made order, bringing color, rhythm, and a graphic sensibility to organic material. The clean, rectangular form contrasts with the imperfect texture of the natural wood grain, while the matte, modular tiles introduce color and repetition.
Grid Blocks can function as standalone sculptures, pedestals, or playful accent furniture, offering both formal presence and a sense of whimsy. Their approachable size and visual impact make them perfect for art collectors, designers, or curators seeking to add vibrant modernity to their space.
