06 Custom Furniture

This reception desk was custom designed for the non-profit organization Reading is Fundamental (RIF). This organization promotes child literacy in America. They believe every child should have the opportunity to learn how to read as that is the foundation of all learning from that point. The concept for this was to incorporate the shape of an open book into the design. This open book idea symbolizes that the book will never close on a child’s learning, and they should always be given the support they need. The final design was worked shopped a few times until it was settled that the top view of an open book would be created on the front of the desk.

The desk is also functional for the user and customer; it features storage options and two heights to accommodate ADA compliances.
