Gothenburg, Sweden-based Staffan Holm and Johannes Tjernberg have designed the CEO, exhibited at this year's Stockholm Furnituture Fair. In their words:
CEO is a desk for a powerful person that reflects on a glimpse of the lost childhood, when life was easier and freer. We want to invite the director to a journey back to a time when life was filled with playfulness, more fun and when he or she was better at showing their feelings. We created the desk bound by the structural laws of LEGO-building bricks, combined this with the grace of the late Rococo furniture style and painted it glossy black to evoke feelings of exclusivity and power. CEO is made up of massive beech, MDF and painted with black enamel paint.
Love "the structural laws of LEGO," and of course, in addition to "the massive beech." [Link]

Hasn't there been enough of this "modernized" rococo stuff already?
