Modern Rectangular Wooden Desk in Birch Wood, Glass

About the Item

A modern piece of statement furniture from British designer Christopher Duffy. The Abyss Desk expands Duffy London's explorations of depth with a mesmerizing depiction of the Earth’s seabed, played out in vivid turquoise colours and grounded on stainless steel drawers. Layers of glass and wood combine to create a three-dimensional viewing canvas; the yellow-tinted wood reacts with the blue glass to produce an array of luxurious colours, offering a glimpse into the thrilling ocean depths from the comfort of your workplace. The Abyss Desk is raised to office level at 75cm high and sits across two matte black plinths made from powder-coated stainless steel. As well as shelving, drawers can be provided on request, along with holes for network cables and electricity. Bespoke sizing is offered to all clients. Every edition piece is handmade to order at the Duffy London studio here in Victoria Dock, East London using eco-friendly materials from controlled sources and wood from Forestry Stewardship Council-managed forests.

  • Modern Scandinavian Wooden Work Desk and Side Table
    By Interior architects FYRA
    Located in Halikko, Finland
    FEM work desk with Interior Architects Fyra FEM is a compact piece of home office furniture, created in collaboration with Interior Architects Fyra. FEM is a multifunctional desk that is easy to adjust, functions perfectly for working both sitting and standing, looks beautiful and has a purpose – even if not used as a work desk. Made by Choice’s Fem desk is a multifunctional work-from-home station designed to respond to the demands of modern remote work, even in smaller spaces. Created by interior architect agency Fyra, specialised in office interiors, the desk is inspired by the designers’ own experiences of working from home – for lack of a better alternative, they have had to set up work stations on drying racks or highchairs and even in a home sauna. The Fem home office desk is easy to assemble without any screws, and just as quick and easy to disassemble and store when no longer needed. Whether studying or working from home, it is important to change your posture throughout the day. The Fem desk is therefore designed so that you can work sitting or standing: the desk’s back panel can be used as an upper shelf on which you can place your laptop to create an ergonomic standing desk. Due to the simple yet adjustable structure, the Fem desk can also be used as a practical sideboard in the kitchen or a minimalist...
