sebastian conran’s universal expert is a london-based brand with the aim of submerging functional and performance with practicality and style into each of its products. they believe that they should create things that would last for generations, so they tend to use natural and proven traditional materials such as woods with antibacterial properties, tough stainless steel, durable porcelain, and heat-resistant, laboratory glass. following suit, conran has developed the ‘home office collection’.

the work combines a minimalist approach with honest and raw materials. available through west elm, the cable collector, organization tray, multi dock, and other accessories are constructed from warm cork and timber that have been transformed into objects with smooth, filleted edges.
