## Summary

Mid-century modern executive desk featuring a wood veneer top with integrated drawers and a polished chrome pedestal base.

## Description

When Florence Knoll couldn’t find a piece she needed, she designed it herself. Believing that an executive’s desk should be a tool to facilitate communication, she designed her pedestal-base Executive Desk (1961), first known as Model 2485, to serve as both a desk and table in order to promote collaboration. The final result is a sleek, spacious desk with a slim wood top, pencil drawers, and a sturdy steel base.
