The 62 Desk was designed in 1952 by Greta M. Grossman but named the 62 Desk as it was deemed ten years ahead of its time. The 62 Desk appears light in weight as if it defies gravity due to its exceptional shape, quirky asymmetric line and slender metal legs balancing on small wooden feet, emphasised by the elegant pairing of materials. The desk is made in American walnut, with a deep-black full-gloss finish on the tabletop and cabinet door. 

Dimensions120cm W x 60cm D x 72cm H

MaterialsAmerican Walnut and Gloss Black Laminate

Greta Magnusson Grossman (1906-1999) maintained a prolific forty-year career on two continents: Europe and North America, and operated as mover and shaker in the male dominated world of mid-century modern design. Grossman's achievements were many and encompassed industrial design, interior design and architecture. The postwar creative climate was highly receptive to new ideas in architecture and design, and Grossman’s unique approach to Swedish modernism was a hit in Los Angeles. For her, good design was fundamentally humanistic; its role was to support people’s daily lives in a relevant and engaging way, and personal and social wellbeing were key considerations.
