Penrose

Penrose desk, designer home office desk, was created by Isao Hosoe together with Lucia Fontana and Masaya Hashimoto.‎ It represents the aesthetic and functional metaphor of man’s challenge to exceed nature and its equilibria through the use of glass, and results as the ideal furnishing complement for the studio.‎The asymmetric structure in transparent glass, also available in extra clear finish, is able to create a perfect balance between the finely cut glass slabs.‎Penrose seems to rest on one point.‎ Bonding the glass slabs – finely fnished in the oblique cut of every edge – makes magic: the glass becomes lighter and bends on itself, remaining in perfect balance.‎ Penrose is the aesthetic and functional metaphor of mankind's challenge to exceed nature and its balance by using glass.‎
