About Drago Desk オフィステーブルソリューション
Drago Deskのアイデアは、ペットと一緒に時間を過ごすことで表される、非人称的なワークスペースと家という2つの世界をつなぐ試みから生まれました。プロフェッショナリズムの感触は、デザインのシンプルなライン、多様性、全体的な機能性に残っています。家のコントラストは、飼い主とペットの間のパーソナライズされた、ほぼ親密な絆によって示されています。 Drago Deskは当初、家庭環境向けの家具デザインとして設計されましたが、ペットに優しいオフィスのトレンドの台頭を反映しており、その汎用性がそのようなスペースでの成功を事前に決定します。

- Production Technology
- The main material is pine plywood, 15mm thick. The box is joined with wooden dowels and confirmats, under worktop construction is a mix of glued joints and confirmats. Worktop is just placed on protruded leg parts which go in worktop drills.
- Design Challenge
- There were a few unique challenges during design process. Very difficult one was to make the design working for any dog body type. I realized that even small dog can feel comfortable in bigger space, which was a win-win situation. I wanted to avoid any sharp edges or at least keep it as low as possible. During design process there was necessary sort out a problem with cable management, the goal was to keep the pet out of reach. I achieved it with closed main box, although there were versions with open sides to keep the overall weight lower.
- Research
- There were a lot of testing of final dimensions. It was a very important to get attention to ergonomics of any dog type, so it won't get harm to get in or being inside of box. Also dogs have to "feel" the owner, being able to see him whole day is making them comfortable. Other problem was to choose a proper fabric for cushions, as it has to tear resistant. There was also testing of final coating of plywood boards to avoid any possible poisoning.
- Inspiration
- It began when we started to work from home and therefore invaded the space of our Weimaraner who used to be home alone the whole day while we were at work. Suddenly, we had this big dog under our standard desks, entangled in cables, pulling out the cords, just to be close to us as much as possible. We had to come up with something that would work for all of us...
- Project Duration
- The project started with initial sketches in July 2018 and finished August 2020 in my workshop in Svaty Anton, Slovakia.
- Operation Flow
- Drago Desk could be used as a single or corner solution. The box has cut-outs to for holding the desk in position, with changing the positions of worktop you can achieve 3 different widths. Also with slightly amended worktop there is an option to have a corner solution.
