The Cosi Laptop Table is designed by Pearson Lloyd for Teknion as a compact, height- and tilt-adjustable surface that supports laptop use, writing or video calls from both lounge chairs and upright task seats. The table features a thin rectangular top with softly rounded corners mounted on a single column that emerges from a low-profile base. The base is slim enough to slide under chair frames, while the column offsets the top so it cantilevers neatly over your lap or side. The adjustable column and tilting top allow the surface to follow multiple seating postures, reducing strain on wrists and shoulders when working in informal spaces.
The detailing gives it the feel of furniture rather than just equipment. Hidden levers beneath the tabletop adjust the height and angle without visible mechanisms; the edges are clean and refined, and the finish aligns with the broader aesthetic of interior furnishings. The design also ships flat-packed to reduce transport volume, signalling a broader focus on efficiency and sustainability.
