About Ebisu 라이팅 데스크
에비스(Ebisu)는 업무 공간을 주거 환경에 자연스럽게 통합하기 위해 디자인된 가정용 라이팅 데스크입니다. 절제된 비례와 균형 잡힌 기하학적 형태 덕분에 이 책상은 생활 공간을 압도하지 않고 조화롭게 어우러집니다. 가죽 필기면은 상판에 매립 방식으로 시공되어 끊김 없는 하나의 작업면을 형성합니다. 구조체는 CNC 가공한 MDF에 천연 파우 페로 무늬목을 입히고 무광 아크릴 바니시로 마감했습니다. 에이징 처리된 황동은 모서리, 서랍 내부 칸막이, 맞춤 제작 전원 박스에 사용되었습니다. 배선은 다리 내부로 숨겨져 형태의 명료함을 유지합니다.

- Unique Properties
- Ebisu is a residential writing desk conceived as a natural extension of the living environment. Its restrained proportions and balanced geometry allow it to engage with space rather than dominate it. A leather writing surface is structurally integrated into the top, forming a continuous and quiet work plane. Brass appears with precision in edges, internal dividers and a custom power box, while concealed wiring preserves formal clarity. Ebisu supports productivity without disrupting domestic harmony.

- Production Technology
- Ebisu is fabricated using CNC machined MDF as structural core, clad in natural pau ferro veneer and finished with matte acrylic varnish. The legs are constructed through laminated MDF layers, precision shaped and veneered. The leather writing surface is integrated and flush mounted into the top. Brass sheets are cut, formed and aged for structural cladding and internal dividers. A custom power box is machined in brass, with concealed wiring routed through the legs.
- Design Challenge
- The primary challenge was combining diverse materials such as brass, leather and natural veneer while preserving a cohesive, balanced and minimalist identity. Achieving visual lightness without compromising structural integrity required strict proportion control. The height of the desk top structural box was reduced to the minimum possible dimension while maintaining rigidity and functionality. Integrated elements were incorporated discreetly to preserve spatial harmony.
- Research
- The project explored how work functions can be integrated into residential space without disrupting domestic comfort. Spatial studies and material testing guided proportion and structure. User observation informed storage and surface organization. Prototypes evaluated concealed technical solutions. The outcome improves usability and spatial coherence, proposing a more natural relationship between productivity and living environments.
- Inspiration
- Ebisu reflects the transformation of contemporary living, where work has entered the intimate space of the home. Instead of importing corporate codes into domestic environments, the project explores how productivity can integrate into atmosphere rather than disrupt it. Inspired by Japanese structural restraint, where function and serenity coexist, the desk incorporates technology discreetly. Ebisu does not impose presence; it sustains continuity within the living space.
- Project Duration
- The project started in July 2025 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and was completed in October 2025. It was officially launched in November 2025 as part of the Tokyo Collection, a broader furniture series inspired by Japanese culture and craftsmanship.
- Operation Flow
- Ebisu operates as a seamless extension of the living space rather than a conventional work station. The integrated leather writing surface is structurally embedded into the top, eliminating the need for external accessories. Drawers with internal brass dividers organize materials with clarity and precision. A minimalist power box, crafted as part of the design language, allows connectivity without visual disruption. The desk performs by integrating productivity into the home while preserving spatial harmony.
