Sheraton Desk
-
This is my adaptation of a desk designed by Dan Faia for a workshop he taught at North Bennett Street School in Boston. You can't see it from the 2D, but as an exercise Dan threw in an instance of just about every kind of joint he could. I modified it by making the front edge of the table curved and curving the drawer fronts to match. I also added the cockbeading around the drawers. I changed the valences at the top of the gallery to be little drawers instead.

Very impressive, indeed.

After posting that image I thought it looked a bit odd and rechecked the model. The depth of the base desk was off! Here is a more accurate image that looks a bit less top-heavy!

I'm glad you fixed it. I thought the first one looked strange but figured it was just me. The second one looks much better.

That's why I love SketchUp. It took me just a couple of minutes to fix the model once I realized it was off!

Indeed! And no wasted wood.
