DETAILS & TEXTURE
CONCEPTS TO CHOOSE
Neon Code
The first concept transforms the T-Bank brand color (yellow) into a dynamic neon installation. The reception desk is made of tempered glass 19mm thick with edge neon lighting that creates a glowing outline effect. The frame is black anodized aluminum with a matte finish. Built-in LED strips with individually addressable LEDs (WS2812B) allow programming of any lighting scenarios. The front facade features an interactive screen displaying real-time fintech data. Dimensions: 3600×700×1100 mm. Cost — from $31,000.
Cryptographic Shield
The second concept visualizes digital security. The reception desk is made of carbon fiber panels with a Kevlar weave pattern. The countertop features built-in touch panels with encrypted communication system. Facades are clad with metal mesh through which LED matrices display dynamic cryptographic patterns. A Faraday cage ensures electronic shielding of the workspace. Dimensions: 3800×750×1150 mm. Cost — from $37,500.
Fintech Cluster
The third concept creates a modular ecosystem. The reception desk consists of 3 independent modules that can be reconfigured. Each module is equipped with its own screen, NFC reader, and document scanner. The modules are made of aircraft-grade aluminum 6061-T6 with a brushed finish. Magnetic connectors allow quick reconfiguration. Built-in UPS ensures uninterruptible operation. Dimensions: 4200×800×1100 mm (assembled). Cost — from $35,000.
Holographic Interface
The fourth concept integrates a holographic display into the desk design. The countertop contains a built-in holographic projector that creates a volumetric image above the surface. Staff can interact with the projected interface using gestures. The desk body is made of tempered glass with nano-coating for optimal hologram contrast. Built-in biometric scanner for client identification. Dimensions: 3500×700×1100 mm. Cost — from $43,500.
Cyberpunk Minimalism
The fifth concept combines cyberpunk aesthetics with strict minimalism. The desk is crafted from blackened stainless steel (PVD coating) with minimal neon accents. The countertop is made of anti-reflective glass with an integrated e-ink display. Concealed cable management with wireless charging Qi2. Pneumatic lift mechanism for height adjustment (700-1100 mm). Dimensions: 3400×650×700-1100 mm. Cost — from $28,500.

TECHNICAL
INFO
Production and installation details.
Why does a reception desk need screens and NFC?
In a fintech company, the reception desk is the first point of contact with technology. Built-in OLED screens display real-time data: exchange rates, company news, queue status. NFC readers enable contactless client identification — by placing a card or phone, the client automatically checks in. This reduces wait time by 40% and creates a 'digital welcome' from the first second.
What is a Faraday cage in a desk?
A Faraday cage is a conductive shell that blocks electromagnetic radiation. Built into the reception desk, it creates a protected zone where data cannot be intercepted wirelessly. This is critical for a fintech company handling financial data. The cage blocks Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC signals outside the protected zone. Certified to FSTEC standards for information security systems.
How long do electronic components last?
OLED screens from LG Display have a lifespan of over 30,000 hours (about 10 years at 8 hours/day). LED modules WS2812B — over 50,000 hours. NFC readers NXP — over 100,000 cycles. We provide a 3-year warranty on all electronics with the option to extend to 5 years. In case of failure, we replace the module within 24 hours.
Is it possible to update desk software?
Yes, all electronic systems support OTA (Over-The-Air) updates. Lighting scripts, interactive interface, NFC configurations — everything can be updated remotely. We provide an admin panel for managing content on screens and setting up lighting scenarios. The desk becomes a digital platform that evolves with the company.
How is maintenance performed?
Daily: wiping screens with a microfiber cloth. Monthly: checking cable connections and cleaning ventilation (dust filters). Annually: full diagnostics of all electronic systems, firmware updates, lighting calibration. We provide an annual maintenance contract including all the above plus priority support with 4-hour response time.
Can the design be adapted for any office?
Yes, every project is custom-developed. We adapt dimensions (from 3400 to 4200 mm), the number of screens and NFC readers, and lighting scenarios to your brand colors. The modular design allows easy reconfiguration as needs change. All concepts can be combined: for example, neon code aesthetics with a cryptographic shield.
What happens during a power outage?
Each module is equipped with a built-in UPS that ensures 30 minutes of autonomous operation for all electronic systems. Critical systems (NFC, biometrics, security) have a separate battery backup for up to 2 hours. On power restoration, all systems automatically resume normal mode. Settings and data are stored in non-volatile memory.
How is data security ensured?
All data transmitted through desk systems is encrypted using AES-256. NFC readers operate on a separate VLAN isolated from the main network. Biometric data is stored in encrypted format with hash functions — it is impossible to reconstruct a fingerprint from stored data. Physical protection is provided by the Faraday cage. All systems undergo annual penetration testing.
Can I order just the design without production?
Yes, we offer design project development separately. The cost starts from $5,000 and includes: 5 concept variations in 3D/VR visualization, electrical and network diagrams, specifications for all electronic components with vendor codes, a technical brief for IT infrastructure integration. If production is ordered within 6 months, the design cost is fully deducted from the total.
What is the lead time?
Full cycle takes 11-16 weeks: digital brief (2-3 days), design (7-10 days), component procurement (5-7 days), production (30-40 days), installation (3-5 days), commissioning (1-2 days). The timeline can be shortened by 20% with a fast-track option (additional 15% of cost). Components for the most popular modules are always in stock.
