On the electrified Asymmetrical the black leather pad is not glued down. It is hinged: lift it and the outlets are underneath, in a kit with a black cover that Tecno supplies for the right-hand or the left-hand desk; plug in, lower the pad, and the surface is whole again, with nothing sticking out of it. No tower, no flip-up box in a different color, no cable tray under the edge of a luxury executive desk. The 1AS4821, 4831 and 4841 desks come prepared for the kit; the basic 1AS4811 keeps a fixed pad and, if asked, a chromed grommet instead. Piero Lissoni drew the executive desk in 2006 as a thick top floating over one solid cabinet, and the pad that lifts is how the power gets in without breaking that picture.

Everything else is a price-list line: sizes 95.3 × 53.25, 107 × 78.75 and 121 × 78.75 in at 29.5 in high; a 2.75 in top; a cabinet finished on both faces that Tecno asks you to keep away from the wall; fourteen lacquer colors, matt or gloss, and ten veneers, coded separately for top and cabinet. Asymmetrical Meeting, the conference table of the range, and the Solenoids tables share those codes. La Mercanti confirms with the order which desks take the kit and which keep the fixed pad, because the two versions look identical until the pad is lifted.

FAQ

How big is the side cabinet?
40 × 25.6 × 21.5 in on the smallest desk, 78.75 × 25.6 × 21.5 in on the 107 × 78.75 in desk and 78.75 × 38.6 × 21.5 in on the largest. The cabinet of Asymmetrical is finished on both faces and carries the whole desk; Tecno asks that it never be pushed against a wall.
Who does the wiring?
The customer's electrician. Tecno supplies the kit with the outlets, the switch and the black cover, and states in the price list that connection and cabling are excluded. An Asymmetrical is ordered with the kit and handed to the electrician before the top is closed.
Can I have the desk without the leather?
Yes, Tecno lists a version without the leather pad. The Asymmetrical top is then lacquer or wood from edge to edge; on the electrified desks the outlets stay reachable through the opening the pad would have covered.
What colors does the lacquer come in?
Fourteen, each named in the price list: White, Black, Chalk, Clay, Powder, Terracotta, Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Burgundy, Swamp, Forest and Sea blue, in matt or gloss. On Asymmetrical the top and the cabinet each take their own color code.
Which certifications does Tecno hold?
Three ISO certificates and one FSC license, all issued to the company rather than to the desk: 9001 for the quality system, 14001 for environmental management, 45001 for health and safety at work, and FSC-C171395 in the catalog. No product test standard is declared for Asymmetrical, so none is written here.

How to fill in the order line for Asymmetrical

Five entries in the order Tecno's price list reads them, so that an Asymmetrical desk arrives the way it was drawn on the office plan.

Start with size and side
Each Asymmetrical has a code per size and per side, DX right or SX left; the two sides are separate lines in the price list, not a note on one line.
Choose the top by its code
Matt lacquer LO, gloss lacquer LL, oak LE or special wood LS, followed by the color or the species: the full code of Asymmetrical carries the top right after the size.
Choose the cabinet, even a different one
The cabinet of Asymmetrical has its own finish code and need not match the top; a Black cabinet under a light oak top is one of the ten combinations Tecno prints.
Add what is ordered separately
The electrification kit for the right- or left-hand desk, the cabinet lock and the chromed grommet on the basic desk are separate lines; none of them is inside the desk code of Asymmetrical.
Send the line with the plan
La Mercanti checks the Asymmetrical order line against the office plan and the freight elevator route, then passes it to Tecno as one line per desk with the crate volume beside it.
