Ricardo Bofill Office for Habitat - 1990s
Large light wood desk and its drawer unit from the early 90s, designed by Ricardo Bofill for the Habitat brand. It is reversible. Consists of a work surface and two legs with multiple through niches. Dimensions: Top 180 cm x 80 cm. Height of the top 76 cm. The top shows some signs of use. The desk can be disassembled into three parts: top and two legs. Purchased at the Habitat store on Avenue de Wagram in Paris in the early 90s. It is complemented by a unit with 3 drawers and 2 side niches, bought at the same time as the desk. The finish is therefore identical to that of the desk. The unit does not slide under the desk but allows for a return and provides storage space (and possibly a support for a printer), including a drawer with hanging files. The drawer unit can be locked with a key hidden in the upper niche.
