Nesting Desk by 4 Pli by Tim Yu

BrainPopDeskthumb.jpg BrainPopCPUholderthumb.jpg

The Nesting Desk, by Brooklyn architecture and design firm 4 Pli, features an integrated screen made of stacked wood to hide and house a CPU without sacrificing ventilation needs. Providing a more organized experience, a plate of knotted wood creatively disguises wire holes located on the desktop (above right) and a sliding keyboard tray is optional. Constructed from natural birch plywood, aluminum details are added to maintain the desk's light-weight durability. Space efficient, the desk is pre-fabricated to easily nest and combine with others to form clusters of larger work spaces. Options include an integrated privacy screen to help separate space and a helpful tack surface.

Made to order, the Nesting Desk is available for $2,389. Inquire at 4 Pli.
