Elegant Italian executive desk designed by Luisa and Ico Parisi for MIM Roma during the 1960s, combining a richly toned wooden tabletop with a slender steel frame and refined architectural detailing.
The desk features a generous rectangular writing surface with subtly angled corners, finished in warm reddish-brown wood with a beautiful natural grain. Its clean horizontal silhouette is supported by four slim steel legs, connected to the tabletop through distinctive sculptural metal corner fittings.
The combination of warm wood and industrial materials reflects the innovative approach to furniture design associated with Luisa and Ico Parisi. The carefully shaped metal connections introduce an elegant architectural detail, while the slender construction gives the desk a light and open appearance despite its generous proportions.
Known for their influential contribution to Italian mid-century modernism, Luisa and Ico Parisi explored the relationship between architecture, art and functional furniture. Their designs are characterised by carefully considered proportions, expressive structural elements and a sophisticated use of materials.
A refined example of Italian mid-century office furniture, combining functionality with the distinctive design language of the Parisi’s. The desk retains its original MIM Roma manufacturer's label underneath, confirming its Italian production. Desk-chair and decoration sold separately.
