The design of the Doble Desk by Studio 06 is sleek and clean yet it is ironic that it should invite the accumulation of visible clutter. This gorgeous and glossy table of polymer, steel and glass incorporates two layers of surfaces with one of them left gaping.
The smooth black tabletop is pressed against the center and back edge of the lower white panel, increasing the piece's thickness and adding visual dimension. At the front corners, however, the bottom sheet droops down to form broad trays for the storage of papers, electronics and office supplies.
There are no cabinet doors or drawers to conceal what one stashes in these open nooks. The seductively streamlined Doble Desk by Studio 06 still encourages its user to live with minimal mess.
