Projects

Walnut study under the eaves

A home office in an attic room, with a desk and shelving that follow the slope of the roof.

The brief

A translator working from home needed a desk for two screens and shelves for about 600 books, in a room where only half the floor has standing height.

What we built

Shelving that steps down with the roof, each section cut to its own angle on site. The desk runs under the window and hides cables in a channel along the back edge.

Finish

Clear oil on walnut, darkening slowly with the light over the first year.
