Desks are essential for getting work done but are notorious for taking up a lot of floor space, so the 'Radius' foldable workstation has been created to change this. Designed by Michael Hilgers for Radis, the desk features a wall-mounted design that can be easily affixed onto a wall to provide the perfect place to get homework or professional work completed. The desk virtually disappears when not in use and sits flush against the wall to take up zero floor space to make it ideal for smaller living spaces or rooms.
The 'Radius' foldable workstation features built-in shelving for holding small essentials as well as an LED illumination system to offer just the right level of light for working.
