The Aviation Wind Desk is a perfectly modern furniture piece that will have your office looking like it's ready to take flight.

With renderings from a WWII fighter plane, this Aviation Wind Desk would impress any pilot or person who could directly quote 'Top Gun.' Polished aluminum panels sit atop hardwood to ensure durability.

**Implications** - The Aviation Wind Desk would look great in a [home office](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ab019-wall-desk), plus it has lots of room on top for [computers, lamps and books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balolo-setup-cockpit) and it also features [storage spaces along the sides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/desk-shelf-pro). You can see the steel screws perfectly along the desk which adds to the airplane effect.

At almost $2000, this workspace will have you soaring through the day's work.
