Writing Desk | Prototype

Aldo Rossi, 1989

A desk is not just a table for writing on. It encompasses an idea of personal order, personal property; it’s a space where we concentrate and where we deal with everyday papers and writing implements. In a clear and simplified way, Papyro reproduces a type of furniture with its own precise tradition. Made of wax-finished walnut or aniline-dyed dark grey pearwood, it comes with drawers of various sizes and uses.
