| DESIGN NAME: Slim PRIMARY FUNCTION: Desk INSPIRATION: As architects from the mystical Azorean islands, our work is always surrounded by nature, peace and tranquility. In our working method we always try to integrate all the elements, materials, decoration and everyday experience. The inspiration for this desk was the feeling of lightness we have when we are working with our laptops in an outdoor environment such as a balcony by the sea or in the middle of nature. Thin and elegant elements highlight the value of wood that float on metal structures. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Delicated and thin profiles that always have empty spaces between the materials (structure and wood). Every material has its own space and identity, they never overlay each other. Contemporary,minimal OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This desk can be transported to its destination as well assembled in place. The top design is prepared to receive several extras features such as invisible built-in wireless charging, built-in cable spots for electronic devices, built-in mouse pad, among others customized items. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Started in May 2020 and ended in September with a full company's office design project of 6 desks and several other pieces. Location : São Miguel Island- Azores, Portugal FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Office Furniture Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The main materials are Metal frame and Azorean Wood slab. Nevertheless this desk is also producable in marble or stone (basaltic stone form azores) top slab and several colors for the metal frame as well finishes like matt and gloss. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Dimensions are always adjustable with the same proportion. The representative model consists of 2000 mm x 900 mm x 750 mm TAGS: Desk, Table, Office, Slim, Minimal, Minimalistic, Frame, Suspended RESEARCH ABSTRACT: A rigorous study of the preparation of this desk was carried out with close monitoring and constant exchange of ideas between UNIKA and the local iron/steel artisans. We sought to achieve perfection in the finish of all delicate and fine profiles. It was also came to the conclusion how the wooden slab was better used and respected the metal structure.
