Shift
Digital fabrication has allowed for the advent of minimalist designers to manufacture products with unprecedented results. Seamless design coupled with precision accuracy defines Alain Berteau’s Shift console, desk, and table for Feld. Shift, which is made of lacquered HPL panels, hides slim drawers within its sleek aesthetic, and includes a structural beam for cable management.
The form on the console desk is particularly appealing due to the symmetry of its legs and surface. Overall, the design is straightforward, clean, and functional. The console can contain three or four drawers, and the table with eight or ten drawers. Additional colors include red, navy, black, or brown. The furniture is flat packed for convenient shipping, and can be easily assembled.

I like the slim drawer profile. In the photograph they appear to me almost as lacquered trays. I can imagine opening one up and seeing a beautifully organized collection of fine papers and desk tools.
