The desk of Johanna Agerman Ross, curator at the V&A museum
What does your desk say about you? According to a new photographic exhibition at the showroom of German furniture manufacturer Walter Knoll, examining the way in which we work today could help us explore how we might work better tomorrow.
Called ‘DeskTop’, the exhibition offers a glimpse of the workspaces of some of London’s most inspirational minds including Serpentine Galleries director Yana Peel, architect Sir Nicholas Grimshaw, curator Johanna Agerman-Ross, designer Luke Pearson of Pearson Lloyd, architect Matthew Blain of Hassell, architect and designer Sevil Peach, designer Mike Holland of Foster + Partners and our very own Tony Chambers, Wallpaper* brand and content director.
Curated by writer and editor Jonathan Openshaw, the eight workspaces are presented through photographs taken by Anton Rodriguez – the photographer behind the 2016 book Residents: Inside the Iconic Barbican Estate.
