Home work: New desk makes itself at home

By 20.01.2010 Bleisure : Voice : IMM Cologne

Cologne – When regular office hours are not long enough, a new desk by Swedish furniture manufacturer Voice might just be the solution.

Displayed at this year’s IMM Cologne interiors design fair, ‘Overtime’, which features slim lines and a curvy silhouette, is perfect for the limited space at home. The clever design allows for computer cables to be discreetly tucked away, minimising clutter.

As the defining lines between business and leisure become increasingly blurred – as tracked in our Bleisure trend report – brands must recognise that people are also investing more money in the new workspace – the home.
