Vipp Studio Desk.

Vipp continues its journey with natural aluminium by introducing a new home office desk crafted from raw aluminium and marble. Made to be viewed from all angles, whether freestanding or placed against a wall, the design adds high-quality materials and refined detailing to any workspace. Perfectly paired with the Vipp Swivel chair, the desk features a polished aluminium frame and joints that mirror those found on the chair, creating a cohesive look when the chair slides under the table. 

The desk is completed with a hovering organic Ocean grey marble tabletop, which features signature white veins and natural beauty marks like fossils, giving the table a sophisticated play of colours. Made from Dolomite stone, a material more resistant than traditional marble, this durable stone top is ideal for a desk that will with stand daily use.

Material: Polished aluminium frame, Ocean grey marble table top.

About Ocean Grey Marble: The grey stone is a dolomite which is a hard and re-sistant marble. Vipp Ocean grey is a type of limestone which is compacted over millions of years, leaving a lot of details, like white veins, red marks from iron and minerals, glass veins, and long ‘cracks’ from ancient earthquakes which are filled with resin.

The stone has shades of grey varying from light grey to dark grey. Fossils and other natural marks are often seen which gives the stone a nice play. Finish: Honed (matte) and sealed with natural impregnation slightly enhancing the colour yet leaving a protected and matte surface.

Frame and legs: The four-legged frame is made from polished and passivated aluminium. The surface is susceptible for scratches, wear, and tear, which is to be considered as patina.

Marble Stain removal: Remove the stain immediately using a lint-free clean-ing cloth with warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid using dusting sprays or abrasive cleaners. In case of serious damage contact a professional polisher.

About Vipp:

The Vipp success story begins on a spring Sunday in 1931 when the 17-year-old Holger Nielsen wins a car in a lottery at the local football stadium. Holger loves cars, but has no driver's license, so he decides to sell the car and invest in a metal lathe. This marks the start of the Holger metal factory, where a few years later he makes a product that will become famous all over the world: the iconic Vipp pedal bin.

"A good design never goes out of fashion," said Holger. Time has proved him right; the Vipp trash has only marginally improved since it was born in 1939. Today, the trash can be recognized internationally as a design classic and in November 2009 it was even included in the architecture and design collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.

Holger and his wife, Marie's youngest daughter, Jette Egelund, decide to take over the company. So far the trash can has only been sold to the professional market, but Jette is convinced that it can also be sold to design enthusiasts around the world. Jette visits the best furniture and design stores in Scandinavia. After much time and determination, The Conran Shop finally orders the pedal bucket for their London and Paris stores.

Today, Vipp is a third-generation family business. Jette is now assisted by her two children, Sofie and Kasper, who, together with a dedicated team of employees and with a growing range of products, continue to add to the special Vipp story.

The original waste bin is available in five sizes and is accompanied with new bathroom and kitchen products. The new products are manufactured using the same characteristic Vipp materials, steel and rubber, thereby improving Vipp's more than 70-year tradition for excellent craftsmanship and durability.

Fun fact: Each hand-assembled bin consists of up to 42 components. One craftsperson can create six bins per hour ensuring quality that lasts.
