The desk Cavour is an iconic creation by Carlo Mollino, the Italian designer and architect known for his bold and inventive approach, dating back to 1949. This desk perfectly reflects Mollino’s quest for the ideal balance between functionality and aesthetics, originally designed for a ski chalet. This model stands out through a harmonious contrast between an organic-shaped frame and two storage elements with clean geometric lines. On the right side, a cabinet with five drawers offers generous storage space while providing sturdy support for the desktop. On the other side, a sliding drawer acts as a dynamic counterweight, with its boomerang-shaped inclined frame adding a touch of visual lightness. The desktop and drawer are topped with tempered glass panels, respectively 12 mm and 8 mm thick, with crystal-clear reflections that emphasize the transparency and finesse of the design. The solid wood base, available in natural oak, brings warmth and strength to the whole. Manufactured in the 1980s by Zanotta, this desk is a timeless piece that combines elegance and space optimization. It makes a strong statement in any environment, whether at the office or at home, and will particularly appeal to those who appreciate sophisticated and functional design.
