In past desk use, it was common to place a sheet of glass over the tabletop, with photographs, letters or written fragments arranged beneath it—allowing personal memories and daily work to coexist on the same surface. Memoria draws inspiration from this habit, reinterpreting it through a new structural approach.
A system of drawers beneath the transparent surface accommodates objects of varying sizes, allowing everyday items to be rearranged and reorganized at any time, forming evolving compositions. The drawers are constructed with wooden tracks, preserving the most direct contact between materials and offering a more primal tactile experience when opening and closing.
Memoria retains the functional qualities of a desk while providing a space for objects to be both placed and observed. Fragments of time are quietly held, as everyday items accumulate into a spatial memory through use and display.
