Unifor - Lessless desk

Jean Nouvel offers up a fresh take on the Less series, using new materials and employing sophisticated construction techniques to create the LessLess tables. Made entirely from aluminium, the pieces represent a modern vision of the contemporary office space.  The product of extensive research and development with a focus on attention to detail in both production and aesthetics, LessLess is the perfect solution for executive areas and key company spaces.
The LessLess series, an evolution of the Less series, consists of a modular system of tables, desk tables, and workstations with support for data technologies, drawer pedestals and filing
cabinets for use in task areas, executive offices, conference rooms and boardrooms. They stand out for their lightness of form, superior technical performance, and environmental qualities.
The table takes the form of a monolithic structure made entirely of aluminum. The legs consist of extruded L-shaped profiles while the table top is built from folded sheet-aluminum.
The legs and top are assembled together by means of a special fastening system that ensures elevated safety and technical performance. Made in both rectangular and square forms and in various sizes, the table can be used as a desk, in both executive and task-area versions, or as a conference table.

Jean Nouvel

Jean Nouvel was born in 1945 in Fumel, France. The first approach to design stems from the need to create objects for one's own architectures, such as the Less table, produced by Molteni & C. for the headquarters of the Cartier Foundation. The design activity of the designers' Ateliers responds to the desire to develop a "design of architecture". After graduating from the National High School of Fine Arts in Paris in 1972, he opened his own studio. In 1981 he won the competition for the Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris. Since then he has received many awards: the Grand Prix National d'Architecture, the Gold Medal of the Royal Institute of British Architects, the Golden Lion of the Venice Biennale and the Pritzker Prize, the nobel for architecture, in 2008.
