Trade terms for professionals and design studios

Anyone who has specified stone knows where the eye goes first: the corner. On Nasdaq Keramik by Cattelan Italia the maker states the detail plainly — the Marmi ceramic runs with a continuous vein between the top and the side. The figure does not stop and restart at the edge; it turns the corner, so the piece reads as one block instead of two panels meeting at ninety degrees.

It is the kind of alignment a fabricator has to plan before cutting, and it is what separates a designer desk from a well-made table. Under it, a single steel leg in embossed lacquer — graphite, titanium or bronze — carries the wooden drawer unit, painted in the same tone, while a leather pad marks the working area in twenty-one colours.

The original version answers with Canaletto walnut, Heritage oak or black open-pore elm, in the same 215x100 and 260x120 cm. La Mercanti handles specification, freight and installation for American executive projects.

How to specify a Nasdaq for a US corner office

Five steps for facility managers and designers taking the desk from floor plan to installation day.

Map the delivery route first
A 215 or 260 cm top has to clear corridors, corners and elevator doors: verify the real dimensions before the size is fixed.
Set the seating direction
Where the executive faces, relative to door and window, decides which side the drawer unit belongs on.
Count the guest side into the footprint
Add the visitor chairs in front and the clearance behind them to the 100 or 120 cm depth: that is the space the room actually needs.
Protect the floor for assembly
The desk is built on open, protected floor; that is where the condition of the edges is decided.
Close one written specification
Confirm size, finishes and drawer side through La Mercanti in the order: production starts from that document.
