Audo's new Rail Desk, conceived by Japanese designer Keiji Ashizawa, explores the way we use space and how design elements can be adapted to serve different functions.
With a view to the world of architecture, the clean, precision-made piece conveys a sense of serene practicality. With its multiple functions - as a desk, counter or shelf for storing books, suspended at any height - it is suitable for almost any environment and fits into both living areas and bedrooms where space is at a premium.
The minimalist steel bracket is fixed to the wall and is oriented towards the handrail of a staircase. The wooden platform, which is available in natural oak or stained oak, forms a haptic contrast to the precise metalwork.
