Cilindro

Cilindro is a mobile desk designed for home working. The cylindrical body divides into two semi-cylinders. One half serves as a container with shelves, while the other half opens into a horizontal work surface. A telescopic steel leg folds out from the underside and holds the surface at 720 millimetres high. The semi-cylinders are made of curved MDF panels coated with laminate, and six wheels allow easy movement through interior spaces. Folding steel panels at the base give access to cable storage. The rounded form avoids sharp edges and suits small rooms.

Double Ten

Double Ten is a desk designed for small homes and frequent moves. The desk is made mainly of bamboo or beech wood, combined with metal, plastic and leather.

Assembly is done by hand in three or four steps, and the desk can be taken apart again. Leather pockets can be added to the legs to hold books or tablet computers. The flat package reduces transport costs and suits online sales.

Deskable

Deskable is a desk designed for single-person households. Deskable combines a desk and a dining table in one piece of furniture, which saves space in small homes.

A carved line on the drawer marks the opening limit and removes the need for a separate stopper. The materials are oak plywood, coated ABS plastic, tempered glass and stainless steel.
