Designed by Pavel Vetrov for Russian home decor brand Zegen, the table boasts a metal frame and wood. The furniture is completely adjustable and multi-functional. While it openly embraces the aesthetic and instrumentality of a modern standing desk, the UFO Lift can also transform itself into a [traditional sitting piece of office furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herman-miller-spout) with the touch of a button. Thanks to its timeless aesthetic and contemporary use of materials, Pavel Vetrov's creation carries a design-forward ambiance in both its formats.
