The 'BACKUP' desk has been designed by Denis Aktay as a multifunctional furniture solution for the modern home or office that would provide professionals with an efficient everyday experience. The desk is characterized by its two-part design that sees the desktop achieved with two intersecting pieces that meet almost in the middle to offer ample space on the top for working. The space where the two portions meet maintains a V-shaped gutter that doubles as a storage space for keeping stationery or tech essentials securely stowed and organized when not in use.
Aktay commented on the 'BACKUP' desk to Home Crux saying, "The idea of BACKUP is to rethink the freely playable concept of a flat area offered by classic desks because this freedom comes along with great disorder. BACKUP is designed to work as a daily support for the new digital sensibility by enhancing it with storage possibilities for general technological equipment and devices."
