| THE SPUTNIK COMPUTER DESK ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE In many ways, the Sputnik Computer Desk is the manifestation of Antonioni’s multi-faceted education. He crafted the sophisticated form you’d expect from a designer who studied at Pasadena’s Art Center College of Design, addressing practical end-user needs without sacrificing style. “People’s desks are so cluttered,” says Antonioni. “There’s never enough space to hold all the papers, chords and daily detritus. And that has a huge effect on people. If you get overwhelmed just by looking at your desk, imagine what it’ll feel like to work there.” THE SPACE RACE The Sputnik Desk, with its ample workspace, clears the clutter and, as a result, your mind, so you can knock off every item on that To Do List. The frosted-glass surface, rotating 20 degrees to the left or right, provides the perfect LCD viewing angle. A keyboard tray tucks out of sight when it’s not in use, while a powder-coated wiring basket organizes your chaos of chords. A metal pedestal keeps your addictive communication devices at the ready when you need your fix—and out of the way when you don’t. PREPARE FOR TAKE OFF But the desk would likely have an entirely different aesthetic if Antonioni had not also studied aerospace engineering at the University of Michigan. The Sputnik Desk—made of steel, aluminum, glass, and Teflon—feels more like a space station than a workstation. And that has a way of making even the most tedious pile of work seem interesting. Featured in more than 50 magazines, from GQ to Interior Design, the Sputnik desk will catapult your productivity through the stratosphere. So go ahead, suit up. + Design + Engineering + Fabrication
