Pacco: A Minimalist Desk for the Home

University North of Paraná industrial design students Artur de Menezes and Leonard Sitta came together to design a desk for Latin America’s biggest design competition, Salão Design. The idea behind the Pacco desk was to have it fit into small spaces against a wall, which is where the two-legged design originated.

Built from wood and white sheet metal, the minimalist desk easily transitions between the two contrasting materials, which give it a modern look. The open space underneath the desktop provides extra storage for the compact design.
