Commission this pieceDiscuss timber & finish samples

Collection imagery is a design visualisation. Timber, dimensions, construction and finish are agreed for each commission.

The idea

A generous working surface carried on a lean trestle. One integrated drawer holds the practical layer without disturbing the desk’s long horizontal line.

Illustrative close study of timber joinery

Material

Kiaat

Boards are selected together at full length, then arranged so colour and grain travel naturally across the finished surface.

Construction

Made from the inside out.

Wedged stretcher joints lock the base mechanically. The drawer rides on timber runners and the top is fixed to permit seasonal movement across its width.

Finish

Made to be touched.

Thin coats of natural oil are burnished by hand to keep the surface tactile and repairable.

Available by commission

Something similar.
Never the same.
