Postmodern Small ‘La Vuelta’ Desk by Perry King and Santiago Miranda for Akaba, Spain, 1980’s

The ‘La Vuelta’ desk was designed by British designer Perry King and Spanish designer Santiago Miranda in 1986 for the Basque manufacturer Akaba. An iconic postmodern piece, it reflects the playful yet industrial geometry characteristic of King and Miranda’s 1980s designs.

The desk combines burlwood, leather and steel, with distinctive tubular steel legs in chrome-plated and black-lacquered finishes. Inspired by the visual form of bicycle forks, the unusual legs give the desk its recognizable character and dynamic appearance.

With its compact proportions and distinctive construction, the La Vuelta is both a practical desk and a striking example of 1980s Spanish postmodern design.
