PK52 Professor Desk

The PK52 Professor Desk was designed by Poul Kjærholm when the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts needed working space for lecturers and students. Drawing on his cabinetmaking experience, Kjærholm developed a new table structure that showcased his mastery of steel and wood. Metal ferrules separate the steel and wood to lend this desk a dynamic, light look.

Furthermore, the tabletop is reversible, allowing the user to work on both sides – or use one side for work and the other for meals/entertaining. Versatile and slender, the desk established Kjærholm’s reputation for uniting the best of traditional craftsmanship and industrial design.

The PK52A Student Desk is a smaller version with the same design. Both can easily double as dining tables.

The optional PK115 Drawer Module offers elegant storage space. The tabletop is always reversible, with or without the drawer module.

Carl Hansen & Søn is a Danish design company bringing visionary design concepts to life for over 100 years.

Just as Carl Hansen did with his furniture shop, Carl Hansen & Søn continues to be committed to honest and sustainable practices, preserving Danish design classics while expanding their collection with new designers. Everything revolves around the belief that iconic design is "a combination of simplicity, aesthetics, and functionality brought to life through skillful work with the highest quality materials."
