About the Item

'Ripple' black walnut desk by Tom Vaughan British, 21st Century Height 70.5cm, width 179cm, depth 81.5cm This intriguing contemporary desk was expertly designed and made by the British designer Tom Vaughan (b. 1976). The overall shape of the desk is elegant and paired down, however, the intricacies of surface finishing and manufacture add complexities to the final design. The plane is curved and finished with a rippled effect, imitating what one would normally see on the surface of water. The wood majestically curves and drops to the ground on both sides of the desk, leaving the central space under the furniture piece free for the user to move around. An unusual feature and a testament to the high quality of work produced by Vaughan is the rippled detailing seamlessly swimming on the undersurface of the desk. Depending on what angle the piece is viewed, the water ripples masterfully carved in wood appear and disappear from one's view. This superb desk would present wonderfully in both traditional and contemporary interiors, its subtle yet complex design features showcasing the craftsmen’s skill.

Solid Walnut Work Desk by Attune Design
Located in Geneve, CH
Solid walnut work desk by Attune Design Dimensions: W 165 x D 78.7 x H 72.4 cm Materials: Walnut. This solid 3 piece walnut desk, takes notes from feminine energy and beauty: strength and curves at every angle. The sturdy, solid walnut desktop, supported by the graceful curves in the legs and cross bar, represents strength in femininity. We wanted to imagine a solid wooden desk that can be assembled and disassembled without tools, one that had individuality yet adaptable to its environment, and we wanted it to serve as an inspiration for creativity. We are a group of designers passionate about helping businesses reach and resonate with their customers. Whether you’re looking for strategy, customer insights, product or service development, conceptual development, graphic, branding, or packaging design we’re here to help. We specialize in delivering on the unknown; bringing resolution to the “what if’s” and the ”I don’t know’s.” Our human-centered approach has conditioned us to listen to the expressed needs of stakeholders, while identifying the unexpressed. To us, everything is about the user experience and we work tirelessly to make sure it is considered at every turn. Driven by the desire to bring harmony, honesty, and beauty to the things and places we live with, Attune was founded by Nelson Jenkins, Zach Boomer and Mitch Barbon in 2020. The interdisciplinary design team with backgrounds in furniture, product and mechanical design have collaborated on projects ranging from environmental tech, interior design, modular and art-furniture. Applying their design principles, Zach and Nelson now create expressive pieces which stand at the intersection of form and function. They are drawn to works that challenge assumptions of form, while pushing the limits of the materials and processes they use. Their first collaborative furniture piece produced, Zola, has both Latin and African origin...
