The aim: »Cetera Office« - an archetypal desk forming the strategic centre with docked-on elements for organization purposes. The result: A desk, which is well organized with a view to modern telecommunications, and a conference table that can be docked on, together forming a spacious piece of management furniture for personal communication. Convincing elegance-technically perfect. The details speak for themselves: The veneered tabletop, the writing pad of leather, the well arranged drawer for your personal utensils, the characteristically moulded table legs. Features that add a sensuous side to our modern working world. Side by side, yet distinctly set off against the desk with regard to its shape, the docked-on conference table lends itself to meetings in a small circle. It offers free space for communication - at the same time, all required documents are near at hand. The continuity from the working area to the conference programme is maintained by the characteristically shaped wooden edge, which - starting at the powerfully modelled corners - taper off elegantly towards the middle. And then the structural core of the »Cetera« idea: the table leg, which is not rigidly fixed to the top, but can be removed and relocated with a only little effort by means of a precise lever mechanism. New wave: The undulating recess of the add-on top is an ingenious solution for the passage of the cables and - optionally - serves for fixing the monitor support or a functional bridge.
