Laura Desk
The Laura Desk is a modern solid wood secretary desk, with a minimal footprint and ample surface for a laptop and writing space. The desk has two tapered tray drawers that hide clutter and help organize, with playful shapes routed into the front of each tray. Each desk has three cubbies towards the back of the writing surface to sort paper or books. Two cord ports face down and hide in the back of the shadows of the two outside cubbies to help with cord management.

Phloem Studio
Phloem [floh-em] (noun) – the vascular structure in plants that provides nutrients through photosynthesis.
Founded by designer/craftsperson Benjamin Klebba in 2010, PHLOEM STUDIO creates timeless contemporary furniture with an emphasis on natural materials and traditional joinery. All pieces are designed by Benjamin and occasional collaborators.
Ben grew up in the Great Lake state of Michigan in the woods across the street from Lake Huron. His father built the house he grew up, the furniture inside it, and sailboats their family would sail on Lake Huron. This left a lasting impression. After college, Ben moved to Chicago, first apprenticing for a luthier building acoustic guitars, then working for a master furniture maker. Ben moved to Portland, Oregon and PHLOEM STUDIO was formed. Ben's family has since moved out to Oregon and his dad now works for PHLOEM.
