Shelter
Shelter is a wooden desk designed for home office use. The desk supports productivity through better organization, with easy access to storage and hidden cable management that guides cables from a rear opening to the front drawers. Rounded corner drawers give the desk a distinct appearance, and all elements are aligned to form one continuous shape. The desk is made mainly of natural wood, with two metal hinges and a brass finish at the back. Production combines traditional techniques with CNC machining. The desk measures 1480 by 800 by 760 millimeters.
