Most desks hide their structure — a beam, a frame, a pedestal that quietly does the work. The Air Desk by LAGO removes the argument: the top sits on tempered glass legs, and there is nothing else. What holds the desk up is the part you look straight through.
The manufacturer describes the result — a modern desk in the plainest sense — as a play of solids and voids, and it changes the room more than the desk: a floor that stays visible reads as larger. Designed by Daniele Lago in 2020, the desk pairs those legs with a top in Wildwood oak or in XGlass.
A desk like this is judged with the sample in hand. Tell us the top and the finish you have in mind: La Mercanti prepares the configuration with LAGO.
