If you know us you’ll know that we do find it a little bit sad that desks aren’t as useful as they used to be. Back in the days desks had drawers. For example.

Dana Cannam’s desk doesn’t have drawers, but is does have a wonderfully simple raised level; a small ledge that not only provides the desk with the most wonderful optic, but which, much more, positively invites us to use and interact with the piece.

Just like ye olde desks of yore.

The design is simple, the design well executed and if Dana can find a use for that “spare” leg end….If not, we’ve got a few ideas :)

The desk probably does have name, we forget to note it. It is however being displayed as part of the “Thoughts of Home” exhibition.
