"Locust" Wood desk with "Nest" chair by Alexandre Caldas
Desk:
Width: 120 cm
Depth: 80 cm
Height: 76 cm
The design can be inspiring for those who deal with it in a day-to-day use. In this case, the comfort and the organization frees us for the creative process, while is functionality tries to be unobtrusive and restrained, without harming the environment that surrounds it. Without great effort, its user can easily reach everywhere and access the tools of work…LOCUST Working Desk
The construction of the legs in an “X” mode, confers an extreme stability without further lockups, since the locking is already part of the design.
Also the way the top trapdoors are designed conceals the hinges, making imperceptible the way they open and close.
The fact of being higher in the back create a slope which allows a better reading and writing.
This difference combined with the 48 degree tilt of the front drawers, creates an illusion of thickness that completely eliminates the viewing of all the front storage when we are standing at it.
The inner hole in one leg carries internal electric power cable that allows to plug peripheral electrical appliances in the center console, eliminating the cables from the outside.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
