The Airia desk balances fine furniture design with features that help keep you organized.
Use the primary surface for your laptop or when working by hand. Keep clutter off the primary surface by placing peripherals, papers, coffee cups on the elevated secondary surface. Three removable covered cutouts route and hide cables and wires. A drawer with three removable organizer trays keeps small items in place, out of sight, and handy.
Curve
"A desk you'll keep for the rest of your life—and give to your kids."
The desk's solid walnut frame, sculptural curves and edges, and tapered cast-aluminum legs with sculpted detail on the insides evoke fine furniture design and add up to an elegant desk for the home.
Hard-Working Design Details
More than just elegant, the Airia desk works hard and helps keep you organized. The primary surface is high-performance white laminate. The elevated secondary surface lets you keep the primary surface free and clear. Three removable covers with cutouts route and access cords and cables. The center drawer has three removable, cork-lined organizer trays.
Just One Tool
The desk is easily assembled with a single tool—included, of course.
Storage Partner
Additional storage and display capability is provided by the matching Airia media cabinet.
A desk for a lifetime.
A "just right" desk.
Cutter Hutton, who cofounded Kaiju Studios with Ayako Takase, understands the balance between beauty and function. Of the Airia desk he says, "We designed it to be shown off and on display in your home. It's timeless. We intend it to be a desk you'll keep for the rest of your life—and give to your kids."
Purposeful and Intelligent Features
The desk was designed by Hutton, Takase, and Chris Specce to artfully combine the needs of work with the comforts of home. To the elegant desk profile they added what Ayako calls "purposeful and intelligent features," like the dual-level desktop, efficient technology management, and natural materials.
"A desk you'll
keep for the rest
of your life."
– Cutter Hutton
Rave Reviews
Their focus on function, purpose, and beauty won raves from designer Reiko Gomez. In a New York Times article about choosing a "just-right" desk for the home, she described the ideal home office desk as "one that makes you feel successful and abundant when you sit at it, without costing so much that you feel foolish for having spent the money." Her favorite? The Airia desk.

Coated Metal
For normal cleaning, wash coated metal surfaces with a soft cloth soaked in detergent and warm water; rinse thoroughly and dry. Remove scuff marks from low-gloss coatings with pre-softened paste wax, following the manufacturer's instructions. Remove scuff marks and scratches from high-gloss coatings using automotive polishing compounds, either liquid or paste. After polishing, apply a pre-softened automotive paste wax to restore original sheen. For assistance in determining the appropriate color and gloss for Herman Miller touch-up paint, contact your Herman Miller Customer Service Representative.
Wood & Veneer
This includes Herman Miller products finished with wood veneer or recut wood veneer, except the oiled Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman with Rosewood, Oiled Walnut, or Oiled Santos Palisander veneer unless specifically noted.
Normal Cleaning
Dust regularly with a slightly damp, soft, lint-free cloth. Wipe dry with a dry, soft cloth in the directionof the wood grain.Spills should be immediately wiped up with a damp cloth.
Once a month
Clean the surface with a soft cloth dampened with a quality cleaner formulated for wood furniture. Wipe the surface in the direction of the wood grain to remove dirt and fingerprints. Wipe dry with a clean, dry cloth.
Twice a year
Apply a good quality furniture polish with a soft cloth. Do not use aerosol-powered cleaners or polishes.
Also, do not use polishes containing waxes or abrasives, or polishes that are oil based.
Stains
Herman Miller veneers meet strict testing standards for resistance to wear, light, stains, water, and pressure. To reduce the risk of damage, take some precautions: Use coasters for glasses and mugs. If a glass top is added to the veneer surface, be sure it rests on felt pads. Don’t place a potted plant on a veneer surface unless it’s in a water-tight container or in a drip tray.Don’t let vinyl binders stay on a surface for very long. Use protective pads under equipment with “rubber” cushioning feet. Some chemical compounds used in the feet on office equipment, such as printers and monitor stands, may leave permanent stains or marks.
Minor repair of water rings, stains, and scratches
Rub the surface lightly in the direction of the wood grain using No. 000 steel wool. Apply a scratch-removing polish with a color and value that simulate the veneer. If the scratches are deep, consult a professional furniture refinisher.
Other Damage
Wood is susceptible to bruising and scratching from heavy office equipment, so we encourage a protective surface is placed underneath. Objects should be lifted instead of dragged across a surface. Protective pads should be used under items with a rough bottom, like pottery. Denting, caused by extreme pen pressure when writing, can also damage veneer. Use desk pads or some other protection where a lot of paperwork is done.
Sunlight can damage veneer as well, so veneer surfaces should not be in direct sunlight. To help a surface age evenly, users can periodically move items on their desks so that the entire surface is exposed to an even amount of light over time. In addition to light, extremely high or low humidity is a damaging environmental factor. Herman Miller suggests maintaining a relative humidity of 35-65 percent.
