Height-Adjusting Desks

'Mobility' by ACTIU Allows Creatives to Find the Perfect Height

— May 30, 2014 — Art & Design
ACTIU has come up with a design solution for creatives that aren't satisfied with the fixed height of desks. Considering chairs are adjustable, it's about time that desks were equipped with the same function.

In a hilarious short commercial by ACTIU, two creatives have a stand-off as to which desk is better, and it soon becomes a height war as the two keep raising the levels of their workspace. This hilariously shows the versatility of the design, allowing creatives to have the desk as high or as low as they would like, all with the push of a button. This is also ideal for anyone who prefers to move between sitting and standing while working.
