Custom-built desk is communications center

Designed as a separate furniture piece, this expansive desk is the communications center of the home for the lady of the house, and has spaces for incoming and outgoing mail, manuals, cookbooks and everything that keeps her retirement home in the Vermont hills running smoothly. A functional home office keeps her in the center of the action–the kitchen–and gives her access to the wonderful westerly views.

This desk/communications center has formal traditional styling with a unique hand-planed maple finish incorporating several layers of stain and glazing.

Special features: Hutch ends at the apothecary drawers, door-style wainscoting on the wall and base cabinet ends, and under-cabinet recessed puck lights
