Explore This Amazing WorkCompass Desk
“The Compass”, a working desk for architects and designers. This desk creates a comfortable workspace for one or two people and provides an opportunity to draw on a sloped surface thanks to a simple mechanism, which transforms part of the top into a drawing board with a fixed 20 degree angle. The shape of the support legs resembles two pairs of compasses. Many metal details were used in line with the idea of a technical drawing tool.
