Four legs desk is normal, but this eye-catching desk don’t want to be normal. Using only one leg under the desk, strong enough that the desk won’t need the other three legs. Minimalist and amazing design, two words which can characterize this product as well as possible. Alexandre said that the we could see the final product at the Paris design show 2009.

After casulo, here comes another invention from Japan called Trunk Station Ad, a workstation in a box. I guess we are going to see a lot of transforming furniture design in the future, this is due to saving space issue that we are going to face. The W 906mm x D 615mm H x 1190mm sized melamine resin trunk opens to reveal an efficient work space, complete with pre-drilled holes for electrical and component wires/cables, a fold out desk, and plenty of shelving for a whole lot of extras (including some add-on units). The price tag is around $1,980, quite expensive, well … saving space is never cheap.
Casulo is really a magic box, you will find a desk, a bed, a mattress, an armoire, a height-adjustable stool, a six-shelf bookcase. Designed by Marcel Krings and Sebastion M?hlh?user, casulo is a ready furnitures package for an apartment, very smart modular setup design. With this perfect solution for frequent movers or small space dwellers, no wonder casulo won the “Abraham & David Roentgen Award” in November 2007.

It’s quite difficult for disabled teachers to move freely when using overhead projector. That’s why Reinier Halbertsma and Sarah Hay came up with this overhead projector desk design. This was inspired by a disabled Professor who generously field-tested many prototypes. Users can switch easily between overhead slides, use the central grab rail for mobility, and it can be used in many configurations.
The main idea was to create a personal computer that doesn’t look like a plastic box, and could really put a design touch on a desk. To arrive to Spice PC, Fred decided to use an infra-red system for the keyboard, that will appear like a magic item on your desk… same concept for the screen, that he wanted integrated to the tower, and use a video projector system, that permit the computer to show all content on a simple wall. Forget about your old square shape PC, Fred bring a new meaning in Personal Computer casing design.
