Hot Desk 2, Berlin, by Russell Bamber, 2018, Colored Laminate on Ply Structure
About the Item
Each plane of Hot Desk 2 is laminated in high pressure laminate. Each surface is a different color, and in perfect condition.
Hot Desk 2 is an eye catching centre-piece sculptural unit that can be used as a reception desk.
Hot Desk 2-Berlin teeters on the edge of design, painting and architecture; selecting and employing elements freely and playfully to suggest function and familiarity. It is made to invigorate a space, to bring unexpected joy and dynamism to our lives, bringing a new and exciting twist to the space it occupies.
Hot Desk 2-Berlin suggests function, and is functional, but its function is also to tease and beguile. The mischievous use of color and surface seduces the viewer into joyful excitement and further blur the boundaries of sculpture and design. Its dimensions are domestic but its forms create a frisson; a frisson that encourages the user to make a decision about their physical journey through a space (much as a kissing gate or linchgate), and pause to change direction or consider their journey.
Hot Desk 2- Berlin is made of four separate, strong, lightweight, laminated plywood boxes that simply slot together (no tools required). Two person assembly, and is shipped in two separate shipping crates.
It has been exhibited at 100% design, London 2019, and Clerkenwell Design Week, London 2018.
Signed under the flat horizontal surface.

Russell Bamber
My sculptures teeter on the edge of design, painting and architecture; selecting and employing elements freely and playfully to suggest function and familiarity. They are there to agitate a space; to bring unexpected joy and dynamism to our lives, bringing a new and exciting twist to the space they occupy. I thrive on solving spatial problems.
My sculptures suggest function, and are functional, but their function is to tease and beguile. My mischievous use of colour and surface seduce the viewer into joyful excitement and further blur the boundaries of sculpture and design. Their dimensions can be domestic but their forms create a frisson; a frisson that encourages the participant to make a decision about their physical journey through a space (much as a kissing gate or linchgate), and pause to change direction or consider their direction.
I make sculptural decisions on the unlikely, unexpected and delightful meeting of surfaces and how the viewer experiences those decisions. The initial simplicity of architectural form disguises the complexity of colour: Form is primary, colour secondary and function way down the list, but crucial. The actual experience of my work is what brings my work to life.
As well as making ‘one-offs’ and limited editions I am open to commissions.
Recent commissions include a television ident for itv; a sculptural intervention for Clerkenwell Design Week, London; and numerous articles and exhibitions.
