Tuck the workspace away. A bay or a nook is a great spot to place a desk, especially a small stylish table like one, this paired with a Kartell Eros Chair.
This fixture is the PH Snowball Pendant. This is such an unexpected yet perfect spot for one, tucked off-center into a very small bay window nook. It shows off just how versatile these pendants are, especially when you choose an all-white version. I also love the play between the fixture and the contemporary Philippe Starck Eros chair, mixed in with wood mid-century pieces.
The eclectic and beautifully selected furniture in this nook complicates the "when was it designed" challenge, even with the laptop in the frame. Help electronics blend by introducing materials that coordinate with them. In this case, the chrome chair leg speaks to the silver treatment on the laptop, while the woods of the desk and file cabinet maintain a warm, modern feel.
In addition to the translucent polycarbonate versions, the chair also comes in an opaque version like you see here. In this image, the EroS brings the new to this mix of old and new furnishings.
Mix modern with traditional. "Working with our client, we chose this desk because of its unusual shape and organic design," says architect John Lum. "Originally, the triangular table was designed for the executive offices of Esprit and was part of a matching conference table set."He adds, "The organic shape contrasts nicely with the rather formal Edwardian features of the bay window and allows the owner to sit and enjoy the view at a diagonal, transforming a staid interior into a dynamic composition."
