Trade terms for professionals and design studios

Almost every desk in a catalogue is a top placed on legs. The D1 series by Colombini Office is described differently, and the difference is one word in the technical sheet: the structure receives the top recessed into it.

What that changes is visible from a standing height. There is no lip of laminate overhanging a frame, no shadow gap that collects dust along the edge, and the profile — extruded aluminium, section 50 × 45 mm, 3 mm thick — reads as the outline of the desk rather than as something underneath it. The fixing is spelled out too: metric screws with zama M6 bushings on the melamine top, stainless steel threaded plates glued underneath on the glass one.

The same construction runs through the operative desk, the executive desk and the meeting table, so an entire floor shares one silhouette.

Send La Mercanti the floor plan and we will check the composition with Colombini Office before the order goes in.
