For the flagship station of this major east coast network, Eastboard Consoles recently designed and built a fully-functional newsroom Assignment Desk, the centerpiece of the station’s unique on-air news set. Comprised of two large, dual-sided, mirror-image workstations, this desk combines the critical operational elements required by daily news operations with the aesthetics and quality necessary in sets for today’s high-definition broadcasting. Special features include wrap-around, curved solid-surface worksurfaces, inside and out, and matching cabinetry with interior wireways, aluminum monitor arm mounting tracks, and reconfigurable equipment turrets and filler panels on the desktop. Our design studies guided the project’s development and finish selections, as visualized through extensive 3D models and renderings.
