Marina Bautier’s simplicity



Bureau / 2007
Without trying to dissimilate its function, this sober, clear and warm desk adapts itself to all living places. Visually and materially light, reserved but practical, it offers a workspace in the domestic environment. A metal plate is lifted to release the laptop. Its magnetic surface allows posting memorandums or personal documents. On the left, a drawer holds the work material. The construction is such as not to corrupt the geometric simplicity of the structure, moderated by the quiet softness of the materials and the colours: the cutted and folded metal plate is fixed to the furniture without any additional hinges; the visible joints participate to the dynamic play of the proportions.
