Corianation

     Thanks to Eventscape for sending in this project info :

'A feature reception desk was required which would establish the main design motif of the office space. The design and engineering teams at Eventscape were brought in by the architects to develop the best fabrication option to achieve all aesthetics and functional requirements. The custom formed and milled Corian reception desk on millwork and metal subframe includes lockable storage, wire management and glass top. 

Eventscape conducted several tests with corian; heat forming, molding, and vacuum forming to obtain the best result for the curved corners of the desk. The main challenge was to maintain accuracy, as the corners had to be both angled and curved. A millwork frame was utilized around the metal subframe and special jigs were used to create the specific angle required. All desk sections were cut on the CNC machine to maintain accuracy. 

The flat sections of corian were milled to create the angled graphic patten using the CNC machine. Each panel was then sanded by hand. The flat and curved sections of corian were glued together while simultaneously being adhered to the wood substrate to maintain alignment. Eventscape was able to create a seamless facade on this custom desk using a premium material which required exact fabrication processes.

The desk top was made up of three quarter inch starphire glass in blue and green. The privacy screen used one half inch laminated starphire glass with color in the center. The desk also incorporated wire management, lockable storage compartments and stainless steel kickplate.'

Angora Gold

Design graft realised by Craft312 Studio, Ankara based designers and architects . A subtle swatch of tectures in surface articulation .The satin matt lacquer upon rich veneers as well as the high polished stone floor all abstract the light to every plane from artificial sources to the  borrowed luminance spilling down from above the generous wedge of  stone and timber reception desk. A celebration of the amorphic rather than merely a pleasure of product placement - a cerebral interior that celebrates timber as petrology rather than just the purely organic.

Swiss wash

 A deft blue floral display of a manifestation swathes across the white core central to this space  - a  reception desk merged into the horizon. Here this calm focal point can be seen across the creative chaos of an interior landscape that is an overflowing bottle half full of ideas from the design studio of Berlin and Zurich based Designers - Camenzind Evolution. A pleasure to view and I imagine physically explore. 
A product found on the virtual shelf of Designs and Projects.

Spinal Taps

The functional crystal clear glass worktop floats above a structure that contains spinal 'pipework' that thread through 92 sonar slices of lacquered MDF, binding them together.

I couldn't resist the fluid sculptural cnc work (bottom pic) in the seating area, do I sit or just stand back and admire?
