BaObab
by Vitra
The BaObab desk is ideal for computer-based and paper work. Constructed as a single piece, it is designed to include storage space and accommodate cables. BaObab is a sculptural object. It's warm colors are inviting and it's organic form challenges the conventional world of right angles. BaObab provides a refreshing approach to office furniture. It's curved shape, shields the user and provides a pleasant feeling of security. Owing to its lack of right angles BaObab can be positioned freely. It is ideally suited to businesses and retail outlets as well as to established organizations who wish to create a fresh image. The design was inspired by the monkeybread tree, also known as the baobab. The baobab tree is traditionally a place for meeting and communication. The shape of BaObab is based on the seed of the baobab tree. Designed by Philippe Starck.
