description
The Aksel office desk provides vital comfort and aesthetically pleasing style when it's needed most: when we're at work. The airy, minimal wood frame is a chic sight. For exciting deviation, a clear aperture in the top makes way for a top of a different finish, in either leather or marble. The natural qualities of these finishes work harmoniously to create an elegant look with the wood. Get projects done easily with ample space and store all your essentials like notebooks and writing utensils in the drawer. Optional round and oval trays can be inserted into the gap to quickly grab your items without searching through the drawer.
The top and frame of this table are Canaletto walnut. The second top can match but can also be customized using abundant leather and marble finishes. Choose if you want the drawer on the left or right and the oval and round trays. The Aksel office desk is designed by Meneghello Paolelli for Porada and manufactured in Italy.

designed by
Meneghello PaolelliIn 2006, Italian designers Marco Paolelli and Sandro Meneghello founded the design studio Meneghello Paolelli in Milan. But they go way back from there; both were born in 1979 and attended the Polytechnic University of Milan, where they graduated in 2004. Since then, they’ve established an impressive portfolio that stretches from industrial design to lighting engineering to supplies suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments to goods focused on wellness.
Through a mantra they dub “lateral thinking”, they craft furnishings inspired by other contexts, even ones outside of the design circuit. This openness to other spheres is fundamental to their creative method, as the novel stimuli produce innovation in their products. And experiences studying at schools in London, Paris, and Norway have only further established them as furniture visionaries. Partnering with companies such as Porada, it is evident how skillful the duo is. This skillfulness has translated into various accolades, including multiple Red Dot Design, Design Plus, and ADI Design Index awards.
