Lincoln, a Chic New Sit-Stand Desk/Console Brings Serious Charm

Room & Board for Business knows how to do resi-mercial right. Just look at Lincoln, the height-adjustable worksurface/console dreamed up with Gensler. Think warm woods, clean geometry, and tech that stays politely out of sight. This piece fits in just about anywhere, whether it’s heading to a C-suite, hotel lobby, or home office. It’s thoughtful, flexible, and clearly designed by people who understand how we actually work and live—shifting, multitasking, and craving a space that supports it all. Lincoln proves that function doesn’t have to sacrifice personality, and that a well-made piece can elevate an entire space.

With distributor collaborations underway and more designs coming, Nassimi’s just getting started.
