Striking and nostalgic, with a sentimental connection to the past, the Zanotta Quaderna Collection is considered by critics as one of the clearest expressions of the theories of the ‘Radical design’ movement, born in Italy in the late 1960s. Featuring a honeycomb core, coated with white plastic laminate and a silk-screen printed finish, the 2830 Quaderna Writing Desk boasts a unique chequered aesthetic.
Well placed in an office or open-plan space, this iconic piece is the perfect place to study or write, gifting you home with a sense of style and practicality.
