Japanese studio Moku Woodware created the Desktop Stool. The piece is a laptop stand that can do several things: it holds your portable computer in style, frees extra space on your desk, and allows you to have a better posture while working. All and all, an impressive attempt at a more holistic workspace. The piece is especially useful if you are working with several items of tech at the same time. The Desktop Stool comes in two finishes, white basswood and brown walnut. Available for purchase here.
If you are blessed with a proper workspace at home – that’s fantastic for you. If not, check out this clever item by San-Francisco based studio iSkelter. Slate Mobile AirDesk is cut from a block of pure, renewable bamboo. It is ultra lightweight, strong, and it absorbs the heat from your laptop. The studio’s tagline “hand-built in America by people who give a damn” seems especially appropriate for this product. The curves, air ventilation, and docking station are chiseled, hand-sanded, and polished by hand to achieve the flawless look and feel. Nice. Available for purchase through Etsy.
