Mid-Century Secretary Desk with Drawers, by Richard Hornby – 1960s, UK

This elegant mid-century secretary desk, designed by Richard Hornby for G Plan in the 1960s, combines functional storage with timeless British craftsmanship. Crafted in rich teak, it features a drop-front writing surface that opens to reveal a beautifully organized interior with small drawers—ideal for letters, notebooks, or stationery.

Below, three spacious drawers provide generous storage, all resting on tapered legs that emphasize the light and modern profile typical of Hornby’s design language. Both practical and sculptural, this piece works perfectly as a compact home office solution or a stylish accent in the living room or bedroom.
