The Oree Board provides people with a way to enjoy their electronics with a more organic aesthetic. Crafted out of [walnut or maple wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakywood-standing-desk-pro), it adds to the decor of a living space or office instead of taking away from it. More than that, the Oree Board incorporates technology that is fast becoming standard, such as [wireless components](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wing45).

Entirely crafted from a [single piece of wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skiller-sgk50-s3-wood), the Oree Board is made to order. Carved, polished, oil-finished and assembled by hand, each one is built in Southern France. As written on their website, "Orée is about reconciling tradition & novelty to create exceptional products through an exclusive combination of timeless woodworking techniques and cutting-edge technologies." The Oree Board is an example of this. It is compatible with Macs and PCs.
