Steel-Constructed Furniture

Harkavy Furniture Designs the Contemporary Office Essentials Capsule

— April 24, 2018 — Art & Design
Portland-based design studio Harkavy Furniture is the braid child of two brothers that formulated a few years ago. The latest introduction by the design label is a range of office furniture entitled 'The Office Essentials.' The label is often recognized for its sleek design of coffee and dining tables, but its latest range focuses upon a new space. The Office Essentials is comprised of modern furnishing that boasts clean-cut lines constructed from solid walnut and steel materials.

The furniture capsule includes a credenza, a standing desk, a bookshelf, and a table. The four-piece collection is all handmade from solid walnut and powder-coated steel to deliver an aesthetic that is minimal. Due to the fact that each piece is handmade, there are a lot of customizable options -- such as the choice of wood, the sizing, and the color of the powder coats. Additionally, Harkavy Furniture taps the local talents of other Portland-based companies for The Office Essentials. The standing desks look to the works of Fully, and Krownlab assists with the credenzas.
