Pegasus Home Desk

 Back to Projects list
Year
2014

The Pegasus Home Desk is a small, ingeniously conceived home workplace that provides space for the digital devices that have long since become part of our everyday lives. A well-designed workplace solution is conjoined here with the elegance of a perfectly crafted piece of domestic furniture. The thick bend-leather tabletop can be rolled or folded upward as needed to access the intelligently arranged compartments below. Here there is space for a laptop, tablet PC, mobile phone, paper, charging stations, power supply or other accessories. The finely perforated pattern of the leather not only creates a visually interesting surface structure but also hints at the devices stowedbelow while providing additional ventilation of the relevant compartments. Like in a functional saddle bag, these objects disappear inside and yet are readily available at any time. The Pegasus Home Desk brings order to the chaos of digital everyday life, juxtaposing high-tech aesthetics with the material qualities, feel and workmanship of the artisanal world of the leatherworker and saddle-maker.

Secretary Desk. Base of chromium-plated steel bar, optionally covered in bend leather with contrasting stitching. Body with drawer and four shelves in HPL/multiplex with colour matte painted finish. Front and back clad in burnished stainless steel, or with real wood veneer in walnut. Worktop of bend leather with contrasting stitching can be folded up at the side. Cable outlet. Height-adjustable metal gliders.
