The TWEN desk by Günter Renkel

Designed by Günter Renkel, this modernist desk, produced by TWEN, perfectly illustrates German design of the 1960s. The period catalog presents it under reference 7400, with a teak top, a three-drawer unit, and a grey lacquered tubular steel base. Its clean design reflects the new lifestyles of the era, where the desk gradually moved from workspaces to naturally integrate into the living room or library.

The 8700 model tripod chair

The desk comes with its original tripod chair, also designed by Günter Renkel and listed as 8700 in the TWEN catalog. Its triangular foam-padded seat, curved teak backrest, and tubular frame echo the desk’s aesthetic language exactly. Designed as a set, these two pieces strike a remarkable balance between visual lightness, comfort, and functionality.

The TWEN brochure presents this collection as part of a complete program designed to furnish modern interiors of the 1960s. Desks, chairs, storage, and bedroom furniture shared the same materials and lines, creating perfectly coherent ensembles. Finding today the 1960s TWEN 7400 desk with its vintage 8700 tripod chair, both documented by their original catalog, is a true asset for lovers of vintage furniture and German design.
