The COPENHAGUE moulded plywood desk CPH190, made in solid wood and plywood, by ronan and erwan bouroullec

The tabletop has a split that devides the table down the middle, which makes room for computer cords etc.

The structure of CPH190 is mounted on the side of the tabletop, to give the possibility of a vertical stacking.

HAY has invited Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec to design a new collection of furniture for the redesigned University of Copenhagen (KUA). The collection includes wooden chairs, bar stools and several tables.

The designers have attempted to create a range of educational furniture, which in form and identity has a clear dating in our age, and with it's compelling manner uncovers the current functional needs of a university. It has also been our aspiration, to distance ourselves from the slightly institutional expression of traditional educational furniture and create furniture with greater originality and a more domestic expression.
