Illuminated Architectural Installation

Counterpoise Workstation
Counterpoise is a hand-cranked sit–stand desk. One removable crank drives both lifting columns through a mechanical cross-shaft; there is no motor, battery or mains connection. The 1200 mm centre top accepts two 250 mm leaves, extending the working width to 1700 mm. A rear rail carries the proposed monitor arm, pen cup, light and plant holder without consuming the work surface.
The desk is a pre-production proposal. Before any order enters production, the studio will prototype the lift, verify the synchronising shaft, finger clearances, load capacity, stability, leaf connections and accessory rail. Accessories are specified individually so the workstation is useful rather than decorative.
Configure a commission
Custom crating, insured freight and installation quoted to destination
Indicative 12–16 weeks after prototype sign-off and finish approval.
Signed record, approved drawings, operating guide and maintenance plan
Design development, the selected standard configuration, approved studio material and finish, hardware, workshop assembly, inspection and signed handover record.
Site-specific structural engineering, custom crates, insured freight, taxes and duties, rigging, installation and final calibration.
Configuration and site review
The selected scale is the starting configuration. Final dimensions, structure, clearances, finish, movement and controls are confirmed against site drawings before fabrication.
Power and controls
No power required for height adjustment. Optional cable tray and removable power module are separate accessories. Power location, switching, control integration and cable routes are shown in the approved project drawings.
Installation
Freestanding; level on site and verify anti-tip stability through the full height and extension range. Structural capacity and local compliance remain subject to review by the project team.
Shipping and field assembly
Flat-packed top, leaves, rail and two frame assemblies in labelled protective modules; assembly by trained installer. Freight is quoted after crate size, weight, destination, insurance and access are confirmed.
Service and replacement parts
Removable covers, serviceable hardware and reversible connections are planned wherever the approved design allows. The final handover identifies care, adjustment and replaceable parts for the actual piece.
