Why settle for a plain cubicle, when you can have a *plane* cubicle? [Moto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moto-buds-2) Art turns vintage airplane parts into home and office furniture. This 747 Cowling Desk would be perfect in the lobby of [Virgin Atlantic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-booth-by-virgin-atlantic), don't you agree? The engine cowlings are 100 inches in diameter with a sanded finish desk. The aluminum is highly polished. Also included are black glass working surfaces and a lower shelf system. It's the ultimate in recycling.
