The desk is a surface that earns its clarity. CONTOUR is built to protect it.

Designed by Minimum Design in Seignosse, southwest France, CONTOUR is a minimalist document holder with clean, deliberate lines — made to sort mail, keep books upright, and organise papers on a desk or worktable. It holds the surface clear without hiding what matters.

What makes it worth noticing is the material. The body is 3D-printed from bio-composite wood — approximately 70% recovered European wood fibres, bound by a corn-derived polymer rather than a petroleum-based plastic. The result is an object that looks and feels like wood, with a matte finish that sits quietly in any interior, and a production process that starts with what already exists rather than what needs to be extracted.

 

Fits A4 and Letter format documents, standard notebooks, books and correspondence. Wipe clean with a dry cloth — no water, no solvents needed.
