Compact and trim, the Enchord desk from the Lifework Portfolio fits efficiently in your busy home. By keeping it simple, Enchord can be used anywhere, and its function is open to personal interpretation. Its two surfaces at different levels make it highly flexible, and its sleek aluminum legs are strong and stylish.
Smart Desk
Top surface. Available in chalk white laminate or white oak veneer.
Lower surface. Extends 11 or 12 inches beyond the upper surface to the left or right, or it can be centered, extending 5 inches on both sides; lower surface is available in pesto green with white laminate top surface, or chalk white with white oak top surface.
Adding versatility. The lower surface helps keep the top surface clutter free and supports peripherals; it also provides under-surface storage and simple wire management.
Stylish legs. Tapered for style and made of steel for strength.
Multifunctional Mobile Cabinet
Multidirectional access. Houses small supplies in the front drawer with cork liner; binders and books in front open compartment; letter-size hanging folders in the removable oak bin accessible from both sides; and small supplies and equipment on the top surface with recessed tray.
Wire management. The top tray has a cutout for routing cords.
Two-inch casters. Move the cabinet right where you need it.
Design Story
Designers Sam Hecht and Kim Colin of Industrial Facility, a design office in London, say they set out to provide "discovered pleasure in flexibility" when they created the Enchord desk and mobile cabinet. In other words, "You become more aware of what it can do as you use it," says Hecht.
"We were inspired to design a table that was functional and flexible to match people's lives," says Colin, "yet be simple, understated, and elegant--not overengineered or too dramatic--so it fits in multiple environments."
Dual-level surfaces provided the solution. They automatically create different zones for different materials--for example, the computer on the upper surface and the printer on the lower. Between the levels is space for storage and wire management. All this without complicating the simple design.
