The Khram dining table draws its geometry from medieval Russian architecture. The trapezoidal shatyor form, the tent-roof silhouette that defined Orthodox churches and wooden civic structures from the 15th century onward, becomes the structural logic of the piece. Four legs wide at the shoulder, tapering toward the floor, bring that architectural thinking into the dining room at human scale.
Figured mahogany is the material. The grain shifts across each board, alternating bands of light and shadow that change as the room's light moves. No two tables are identical. The rectangular top rests above the legs with the confidence of a piece that does not need ornamentation to make its case.
Aède Studios handcrafts every Racines piece in Europe, using traditional joinery techniques that match the ambition of the design. Founded in Paris by Fedor Velyaminov, Ana Mira, and Alix Declercq, who bring together backgrounds in architecture, interior design, and graphic design, the studio treats each collection as a material argument for a specific historical moment.
The Khram table is part of the Racines collection, Aède Studios' debut, available on Monde Singulier.

About
Aède Studios
AÈDE Studios is an interdisciplinary design studio based in Paris, working at the intersection of luxury furniture and fine objects. Founded by Fedor Velyaminov, Ana Mira, and Alix Declercq, three partners whose backgrounds span interior design, graphic design, architecture, and branding, the studio treats each collection as a vehicle for cultural storytelling.
The name "Aède" honors the aèdes of ancient Greece, the itinerant poet-singers who preserved epic narratives through oral tradition. That same commitment to transmitting history through craft defines the studio's practice. AÈDE draws from the Art Deco movement, weaving in medieval Russian motifs, Eastern European folk traditions, and material heritage to produce luxury furniture with documentary depth alongside aesthetic coherence.
Where much of the contemporary furniture market favors scalable production, AÈDE handcrafts each collection in Europe with emphasis on finish quality and narrative precision. Every angle, proportion, and material choice is tied to the conceptual program of the collection it belongs to.
The studio's debut, the Racines collection (2024), draws on research into little-known Russian Art Deco, shaped by the cultural legacy of Sergei Diaghilev and the neoclassical modernism of Igor Stravinsky. The Khram dining table, its centerpiece, takes its form from the trapezoidal silhouettes of medieval Russian tent-roof architecture, handcrafted from figured mahogany.
On Monde Singulier, AÈDE Studios offers furniture and objects for collectors who value scholarly grounding as much as formal invention, a rare quality in Paris luxury design.
