The client, a huge boating fan, requested a unique design and the use of sustainable materials. Inspired by baroque opulence and dry industrial design, the desk-design evolves. A force field between two levels, the desktop and the table base, generates the biomorphic geometry of the whole.

The white table base evokes a technical feel, whereas the slots are not lacquered and connect the lower part with the desktop, in the natural look of the material.
