Desk, mid 20th century design. Rosewood. Needs refinishing. Measurements: 76 x 152 x 85 cm. Desk made entirely of rosewood, with a design of refined shapes, regular straight lines and rounded volumes, which contrast expressively with the beautiful natural grain of the wood, with sinuous, organic lines. It consists of a rectangular, sharp-edged tabletop, raised on two side frames made up of two straight, rectangular legs, joined together by a lower footing of the same shape, and a half-height crossbar, which reinforces the construction. The back of the cabinet is closed with three doors, two simple side doors and a central one that acts as a hinged lid, each with an independent lock. Two drawer units are located at the front, on either side of the central leg compartment. Each side body has three drawers with smooth, moulded fronts and a recessed handle, made from the same wood.

Furniture-bar design, second half of the twentieth century. Beech wood. Metal handles. Measurements: 195 x 138 x 49 cm. The design of the furniture produced between the 1930s and 1980s fits perfectly in today's homes. The shapes, colors and materials of the mid-century furniture create a retro atmosphere bringing a unique and particular taste. The bar cabinet in tender is characterized by the strong geometric volumes and the formal purity of its structure, very much in line with the Italian design of the 80s. This structure stands out thanks to the bambi type stipe legs that support it, which give way to a curved table top on which the main body rests, distributed in two superimposed compartments. On the outside, the main frame is divided into panels, each corresponding to a folding door.

A large, slightly conical circular shade adds warmth to the structure. The tandem of Catalan architects Federico Correa and Alfonso Milá, both born in 1924, were one of the most outstanding references of the Modern Movement in the second half of the 20th century.

Architecture of summer houses in Cadaqués, institutional and residential buildings, sports stadiums, factories and offices, interior design for the legendary restaurants FlashFlash or Il Giardinetto and singular and iconic design pieces to equip their own works and for furniture companies such as Gres.
