PairDrop
July 2020
Introducing our newly developed cable management flap! Designed to be accessible from all sides. Open one facia panel and the other follows automatically.
Available in a wide range of finishes, from matching veneer to laminates, fenix, powder coated metals, brass and stainless steel.
Mobile Edit Desks
April 2019
One of our latest developments is a compact, adjustable edit station for agile workers. The desk is made of a black paper compound and can rise, fall and swivel to give the user ultimate flexibility. All connectivity is hidden behind a curved modesty panel and bright, industrial yellow wheels allow it to be moved across the office floor.
Private Equity Firm
December 2018
Here is one example of a range of tables recently manufactured for a private equity firm, all of which required a variety of specialist techniques. The surf edge detail is coated in a patinated liquid bronze finish, post-lipped to surround the leather top and decorative bronze inlay. The base is constructed from solid European walnut in a tapered cross formation, with cables running down the inside of each leg. The tables were accompanied by a 3.6m long patinated bronze and leather fronted reception desk.
Branching Out
September 2018
Opus Magnum recently worked with Kurt Geiger on a new shop display by manufacturing and installing these leaf-like, rotating shoe shelves. Each shelf is individually cast in Jesmonite and features an integrated LED to illuminate the shelf below, all cantilevered off a single powder-coated aluminium pole. There are close to 100 of these shelves in the space creating an organic, adaptable, footwear forest.
12m Boardroom Table
August 2018
Opus Magnum is currently producing an impressive 12m long boardroom table in grey-stained, quarter sawn, European oak. The top includes a black Fenix inlay with 16 matching flaps to house retractable data monitors and microphones. The large base is clad entirely in Fenix with flush access doors for cable management.
A table this long is always a welcome challenge!
Pictures to follow upon completion.
A Stone’s Throw
June 2018
To aid in the selection of two Onyx slabs for a current project in the Heron Tower, a day trip to northern Italy was required. These slabs were hand-picked fresh from the source and will be water-jet cut to lie in the centre of an impressive, 8m long, corporate dining table.
Environmental Achievement – Compressor
We have recently installed a brand new air compressor to further improve our environmental credentials and increase efficiency throughout the workshop. The compressor is a vital machine that provides air to the large majority of our machinery including the speed sander, spray booth equipment and veneer saw to name a few. The new compressor will save an impressive 11,952kg of CO2 per year and is one of our 2021 ISO-14001 targets ticked off already!
