In the world of desktop storage, plastics proliferate. We went on a search for desk organizers in a more natural palette. Here are our finds:
Above: The Tofu Stationary Set is the creation of Pana Objects, a collective of seven designers and makers in Thailand who specialize in wooden objects. Made from maple, the set has six cubes, each with a different function, that neatly rest in a fitted tray. Above: A streamlined receptacle to tidy up your desk, available from Connox. Made from a solid piece of oak, the Remix Log, designed by Gesa Hansen, has one large compartment for gathering papers and tools, plus spots to hold ten writing utensils. Above: Made of maple and brass by UK design company Another Country, the Another Desktop Series Two consists of a paper tray, note holder, and pencil holder. They’re high-style addition to any desk.
Above: Les Briques Lacquered are wooden lacquered brick blocks perfect for desk storage. Available in five colors, available from Neo-Utility.
![Flat-pack furniture may seem like a new invention, borne from the modern-day realities of small apartments and frequent moves—but leave it to Howe London to, well, dismantle that assumption.
Take-apart furniture, the antiques retailer and bespoke furniture maker points out, has roots in old French design and portable campaign furniture. And Howe London’s own take on the tradition, the Knock-Down Wardrobe, is designed, they say, “to easily dismantle or ‘knock-down’ in the same practical way the French conceived their ‘armoires’ in the 18th and 19th [centuries] and reminiscent of military campaign furniture intended to uphold a degree of home comfort for officers traveling abroad.”
With time-tested construction and nods to old design, the Knock-Down Wardrobe is well primed to fit with the practicalities of contemporary life (small doorways, for example). Take a look.
