Wall mounted wood veneer and aluminium secretary desk
S1 Chapter is a wall mounted wood veneer and powder coated aluminium secretary desk, a reinterpretation of the historic bureau that, in its own distinctive way, answers the demand of a new solution for work, because of the balance between working and living spaces being renegotiated, the boundaries between the digital and physical worlds blurring and space itself at a premium. The result is an understated, wall-mounted item of furniture, reduced in form to lines and surfaces. A fold-up, oak-veneered tabletop covers a compartment for hidden storage. The sloping aluminum rear panel is an exceptional place to feature books, notes, and objects, or keep utensils and other materials within reach. Made of single elements, the product is economically packaged, 100% recyclable and straightforward to repair. It can be used as an individual work surface, a standing desk, or a sideboard. When arranged in a row along a wall it can be used to create whole workspaces.
The aluminium parts are manufactured by a specialised partner in Berlin. The powder coating is applied at the same facility as the last step of the manufacturing process. The wooden parts, including their finish, are manufactured by a technical supplier in Bavaria. All small parts used are made in Europe. The special hinges are sourced from a quality manufacturer in Austria.
