The Mox Storch Desk is a Simple Leaning Ledge for Your Notebook

— June 16, 2011 — Art & Design
For the purpose of leisurely laptop use, there's often no need for a big sturdy surface, and something like the Mox Storch Desk will suit you and your machine just fine.

Designer Nando Schmidlin of Switzerland came up with this compact carrel which fundamentally features a bend metal tray and two wooden dowel legs. The lightweight piece of furniture can be effortlessly propped against the wall when it's needed and stowed away when it isn't, making it ideal for small spaces that are subject to adaptation. All you need to do is pull up a chair. The surface is large enough to accommodate a portable computer, though the Mox Storch Desk offers troughs for pencils and pens, making it a great spot for letter-writing and drawing too.
Trend Themes
1. Compact Workspace - There is a trend towards more compact, adaptable workspaces, offering an opportunity for designers to create innovative, space-saving furniture solutions.
2. Multi-functional Desk - The rise of multi-functional furniture like the Mox Storch Desk, which can serve as both a workspace and creative outlet, offers an opportunity to redefine the concept of a traditional desk.
3. Minimalist Design - The Mox Storch Desk's minimalist design is increasingly popular, offering an opportunity for designers to create aesthetically pleasing, functional furniture that is easy to move and store.
Industry Implications

2. Home Office Equipment - The rise in remote work is creating demand for space-saving, functional home office equipment like the Mox Storch Desk, which can be marketed towards those looking for a clean, minimalist aesthetic.
3. Interior Design - Interior designers can utilize the trend towards minimalist design and multi-functional furniture to create functional, stylish spaces that maximize the use of small areas and cater to the needs of modern living.
