    Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: Jean Prouvé, 1953

    The Compass in Steel and Wood

    Jean Prouvé developed several versions of the Compas table around 1950, basing the design on the structural principles for which he is known. Common to all of them are the slender, elegantly splayed legs — their form a direct reference to the hinged arms of a compass, le compas in French. The solid wood top gives the Compas Direction an individual touch that sets it apart from the more industrial pieces in the Prouvé canon.

    With its compact dimensions, the desk is ideal for the contemporary, largely paperless home office — particularly in combination with the Vitra Fauteuil Direction or the Vitra Fauteuil Direction Pivotant.
