These brightly colored retro bureaus are a great way to liven up an office space. When closed., the clean lines of the desk suit any modern minimalist environment. The design features a gas-filled hydraulic mechanism for a soft close lid, and just to add to the cool factor, the piece even has LED lights with integrated wiring.
There's plenty of neat compartments inside the lid with a storage groove and elastic holders to keep everything in place and secure. The desk also has a draw at the bottom with pencil trays to keep all your stationary organized.
The design has been especially selected by Wharfside, and they can have it made in any colour you'd like.
