United States, 1950s
Mindful of the needs of architecture firms and other creative environments, George Nelson designed this tawny walnut desk and storage unit as part of Herman Miller's Executive Office Group. A free-floating work surface (7230-L) with a three-drawer case (PM-3) for supplies connects to the storage unit (6720) in an L-configuration. The storage unit has sliding black laminate doors on the front and rear of the case — behind which are six drawers as well as open storage — and a lockable cabinet to the right. The whole combination sits on metal legs. The dimensions of the desk are 30" D x 72" W x 29.5" H.
