Introduced at the Salone del Mobile Milano 2016, the PK52A Professor Desk showcases designer Poul Kjaerholm's fascination with elegant lines and immaculate detail. Poul Kjaerholm's quality and functionality demands fit perfectly with Carl Hansen & S√∏n values, making the Table Series a natural addition to the collection. "The unique tables tell us something about Poul Kjaerholm's development. He was not afraid to challenge his established colleagues and pave his own path. He was a talented cabinetmaker, but also adopted new materials such as steel, leather, flag halyard and canvas. He achieved a new lightness by combining wood and steel - a pairing that was not very common in his day, and which he succeeded in using in his own unique, simple and beautiful way," Knud Erik Hansen, CEO and third generation owner of Carl Hansen & S√∏n, explains.
