Postmodern Memphis Design Writing Desk, Germany, 1980s

About the Item

This striking postmodern writing desk exemplifies the bold aesthetics of the Memphis design movement. The desk features an asymmetrical green laminated wood surface supported by a black steel structure with shelves, creating a dynamic and geometric silhouette. Its minimalist yet playful design reflects the era's avant-garde approach to form and function. This piece is not only a functional workspace but also a statement piece that adds artistic flair to any interior setting. Some light traces of use to be noted on top, otherwise in good condition.
