Daystak Desk RD3 by Robin Day
The Daystak Desk highlights Robin Day’s skill for blending form with utility. The addition of a drawer box with visible dovetail joinery to the Daystak Table creates a desk that embodies Day’s singular creative focus. The drawer box can be ordered separately and placed on either side of the table.
Perfectly paired with the Daystak Chair to create a distinctly mid-century ensemble.
Born and raised in the furniture making town of High Wycombe, Robin Day (1915-2010) grew up surrounded by timber yards and cabinetmaking workshops. Robin and his wife Lucienne Day (textile designer and artist) are often compared with their American contemporaries, Charles and Ray Eames.
