Revolving Writing Pad Tables

Keep a Record of the Day-to-Day with the Analog Memory Desk

— May 31, 2013 — Art & Design
So many ideas run through our minds on a daily basis that it can be hard to keep up with our own thought processes, a task the Analog Memory Desk is more than capable of handling.

Created by designer Kirsten Camara, this basic wooden escritoire harks back to the days when pencil and paper were the norm and virtual technology had yet to make its interference with people’s everyday lives. Covered in a giant sheet of paper, the desk allows the user to write, doodle and jot down thoughts as they occur, with handles that turn the paper along, allowing for continuous free thought.

After it is completely filled up, the sheet roll from the Analog Memory Desk can be kept as a physical record.
Trend Themes
1. Analog Memory Desks - Create a trend of bringing back the simplicity of pen and paper for daily note-taking and record-keeping.
2. Continuous Thought Capture - Tap into the desire for a seamless and uninterrupted flow of ideas and thoughts with revolving writing pad tables.
3. Physical Record Keeping - Cater to the need for tangible and nostalgic ways of archiving information by introducing revolving writing pad tables with detachable sheet rolls.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture - Furniture companies can explore the opportunity to create and market innovative desks that combine functionality with analog memory features.
2. Stationery - Stationery manufacturers can tap into the trend by creating specialty paper rolls that are compatible with revolving writing pad tables.
3. Journaling and Productivity Apps - App developers can consider integrating features that mimic the experience of using an analog memory desk to cater to users seeking a blend of digital and analog note-taking.
