A system's aesthetic-functional feature is the aluminium joint between the panels, which allows the desks to be completely disassembled. Chosen by many companies since the early 1970s, including Olivetti and Brionvega, Modulo 3, after being used in the Mount Pleasant headquarters, became a distinguishing feature of IBM offices worldwide.
