Trust stems from the idea that spaces shape us. For a culture built on respect, good manners, and open communication, the environment itself should take the “form of dialogue.”
Trust is a dssk, storage and shelf and desk system for the executive office, designed to encourage learning, sharing, and conversation through warmth, lightness, and a quiet sense of charisma.

Cercle task chair by Lievore Altherr Park for Poltrona Frau features soft lines and refined leather craftsmanship for elegant executive offices.

FORM OF DIALOG

Form of Dialog frames design as a catalyst for open communication. It creates settings that actively encourage exchange through clarity, human scale, and an inviting atmosphere. Trust and Cercle are two collections developed within this approach, conceived as mediators between people, supporting dialogue, attention, and shared presence.

As an invitation to talk, listen, and work together, these collections rethink the executive office as a more approachable space. They emphasize warmth, lightness, and charismatic ease, expressing a collaborative attitude—both internally toward employees and externally toward the market.

EXPLORATIONS

Trust began with an exploration of angles — the particular language that open, obtuse forms speak in contrast to sharp or closed ones. We worked through compositions of soft shapes, studying how the compositions changes not just posture but feeling. Open angles invite; closed ones contain. The difference is not formal — it is psychological.

What emerged was a vocabulary of shapes that communicate trust through their geometry: generous, structured but soft. Forms that do not demand a rigid way of sitting next to each other, but offer themselves as a considered, open proposition, that create an open-minded mood — a visual language that invites dialogue.

DESIGNING OPENNESS

Trust is a collection of tables and storage defined by open angles that introduce a lively, multidirectional dynamic, balanced by softened edges that feel calm and approachable. Extending beyond executive settings, its space dividers structure open interiors into lounges or more intimate nooks. Rectangular desktops support traditional layouts while maintaining a sleek, luxurious finish inspired by automotive interiors.

Conceived as a bridge between classic desk chairs and high-performance task chairs, Cercle brings a sense of lightness to executive spaces. Its iconic shell sits comfortably in traditional offices, while the slim, laminar form expresses openness and modernity, pointing toward a more progressive vision of executive work environments. Together, Trust and Cercle complete a coherent spatial proposition: one that takes the executive office seriously as a place of human exchange, and designs every element in service of that idea.
