# Interactive Nostalgic Desktop Accessories Designer Aree Song Unveiled the Escapist Momento Range By Elena Rahman | Published 2021-05-24 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aree-song References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2021/05/18/interactive-desktop-accessories-that-give-you-a-nostalgic-break-during-those-incessant-zoom-meetings/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+yankodesign) Designer of the Momento set of [fun interactive desktop accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toku), Aree Song, opted for a [nostalgic feel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipod-classic-fidget) to the [fidget toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slidergamemackey). The design goal is to capture a little bit of joy and give workers a moment of escape from mundane chores, especially when working long hours in home offices. Momento, which means "take a moment" in Spanish, uses simple forms and basic colors for its simplistic design. The collection includes three interactive objects, all of which serve a dual purpose. A tape dispenser mimics the exciting movement of a swing set. Second, a yellow seesaw-inspired pen holder boasts a retractable bottom. The final element in the collection is a triangular cord organizer, which features a sliding red circle.
