Light changes in a room all day, from sharp morning angles to warm late-afternoon spreads, but most stone decor doesn\u2019t respond to any of it. The idea that a piece of stone could feel different at different times of day doesn\u2019t come up often in furniture or object design.<\/p>\n<p>Denys Sokolov\u2019s ZEROS collection, manufactured by MUZ STONE, a Ukrainian company known for stone processing and creative design, starts from a different premise. \u201cZeros are forms shaped by absence,\u201d the collection states, and the openings across each marble block soften the weight of the object, letting light, air, and shadow become part of its design. \u201cIn their simplicity, they reveal that even the smallest void can transform the whole,\u201d which is a surprisingly accurate description of what these pieces do in a room.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svoya-sokolov.com\/portfolio-collections\/my-portfolio\/project-title-1-1-1-5c2217-1\">Denys Sokolov<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The perforations aren\u2019t decorative in the usual sense. Repeated voids give the object its rhythm and character, and they shape not only the form itself but also the shadows around it. Standing at a slight angle, the grid of holes reads as a pattern of overlapping light and dark ovals. Move a little and the composition shifts. Repetition creates a rhythm that is both structured and organic, which is a difficult balance to strike in stone, a material that usually communicates permanence and rigidity more than fluidity.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>These pieces play with the tension between mass and lightness, solidity and transparency. The marble is real and heavy, but the voids introduce a visual porousness that makes the whole thing feel less like a block and more like a porous, breathable presence. Even the smallest opening shifts how the eye reads the overall weight, which is the point the collection keeps returning to.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>When lit from within, the openings create distinct light patterns in the surrounding space, and the effect changes depending on the angle, distance, and intensity of the light source. That turns any of the pieces into a quiet ambient light source, not a bright lamp, but a patterned glow that makes nearby walls and surfaces feel textured without adding visual clutter or another device to the room.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The pieces can hold a single stem or branch through one of the openings, making them functional as minimal vases when you want them to be. They also work on their own without needing anything inside, and different sizes can be clustered together so the grid-like rhythm becomes more architectural, a small group of perforated blocks that feel more like a landscape than a collection of objects sitting near each other.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>ZEROS doesn\u2019t try to fix a problem or optimize a category. These forms engage with their surroundings, responding to changes in light, movement, and perspective, and they\u2019re not static, each moment revealing a new composition. Carving emptiness into marble is a quiet way to make a heavy material feel surprisingly alive, which is harder to do than it sounds and more satisfying to live with than most stone decor that just sits there looking expensive.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/02\/18\/these-perforated-marble-blocks-create-shifting-light-patterns\/\">These Perforated Marble Blocks Create Shifting Light Patterns<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/\">Yanko Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stone decor tends to be heavy, polished, and a little intimidating, the kind of thing you place once and never move.
