Gimme. Please? Pretty Please?

Design George Nelson, 1958.
Walnut, laminate top, plastic drawers, chromed steel tubing. Made by Herman Miller.

I actually have a perfectly servicable, if slightly battered, shell chair and Nelson desk combo at the gallery already. This set does make me swoon though. I love the colorful accents against the walnut and white laminate and the surface of the desk is perfect for a laptop. I know for sure that if I had this in my house I’d be less prone to lying on my couch and typing. (Exactly as I am right this minute, ergonomics be damned.)

Available from Hive Modern. If you’re so full of Jen-love and at loss for how to express it, getting this for me would be a fine start.
