Studio Vincent Eschalier presents Bench Gustave, a meticulously crafted office masterpiece that seamlessly combines practicality, ergonomics, and user experience. This tailor-made desk is a direct response to the evolving needs of modern workspaces, particularly emphasizing mobility.
The driving force behind this project is the vision to introduce a retractable table that addresses the challenges of workplace flexibility. To harmonize the mechanical and ergonomic requirements of an office setup, the design team has meticulously selected a range of materials. Concealed within a sleek 2mm stainless steel casing, the entire mechanical system skillfully integrates cutting-edge technology, all the while remaining inconspicuous and beautifully aligned with the desk's aesthetics.
The desk's sturdy ash top, enveloped in a layer of linen rubber, offers a luxuriously smooth and tactile surface, ensuring optimal comfort for users. These two components combine to create a commanding presence, both visually and physically. As the oak top gracefully ascends, the fabric lining flawlessly extends, evoking a dynamic sense of motion within the office space. Furthermore, the desk boasts advanced technological integration, including a remote control and Bluetooth connectivity, enabling users to remotely manage the Bench Gustave and program automated platform adjustments according to their preferences.
In addition to its contemporary design, the desk embraces a tool-free assembly approach, eliminating the need for screws. The fabric encasement employs a user-friendly scratch system, facilitating easy opening and closure while also allowing for convenient cleaning when necessary.
Maintaining a clean and minimalist aesthetic, a discreet channel on the side of the tabletop discreetly houses the electrical outlet and the sole cable that emerges from the desk, ensuring an uncluttered workspace.
Adhering to the vision of creating exceptional furniture rooted in quality craftsmanship and domestic production, the electronic and mechanical components of Bench Gustave are manufactured in France, while the carpentry work embodies the rich expertise of European artisans.
