"aperian reception desk"

walnut, fiddleback maple, stainless steel

2001

designed by wells mason

this particular company was opening new offices around the country, and they needed reception desks for each of their new locations.  we built and installed these desks in several different cities, including austin, dallas, phoenix, tampa, and atlanta.

it’s one of my favorite reception desk designs.  it’s compact, because there was very little room for a reception desk.  and, I think, it’s sculptural, with a careful combination of materials, and with multiple horizontal and vertical planes.
