Capa desk24. Dec2011
Capa: which means 'layers' in Spanish, is a visual composition of colors and textures intended to redefine the archetype of the writing desk.
The 'capa' desk was created by Reinhard Dienes for The Foundry Collection.
The philosophy behind the Foundry Collection is the merging of creative vision and artisan skills in an attempt to design furniture with character and soul. Working with materials known for their longevity, Foundry manages to design pieces that can be current even in the context of tomorrow.
