When I say that the Le Orchidee Desk has some junk in the trunk, I mean it quite literally. It may be curvaceous, but those curves were not made to go to work. Instead, the curves hide a nice level writing surface within.
Designed by Mark Fish, the Le Orchidee Desk was created for the Millinery Works 21st Century Furniture exhibition in London. With a bit of a 70s feel to it, I think this retro table has something going for it in the design sphere. Check out the gallery above to see if you agree.
