# Mobile Office Organizers SOTO II Worktools Enable an Open Desk Setup By Amelia Roblin | Published 2012-09-05 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soto-ii-worktools References: [indesignlive](http://www.indesignlive.com/articles/SOTO-II-by-Steelcase) & [steelcase.asia](http://www.steelcase.asia/en/products/worktools/sotoii-screen/pages/overview.aspx) SOTO II Worktools are a clever solution to the modern and flexible workplace in which many people are simply temporary tenants of their desks. This is a collection of objects by [Steelcase](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steelcase-flex-personal-spaces) that offers the benefits of adaptability and mobility but makes the employee feel settled at the same time. Each of the pieces is essentially a large workstation accessory that nullifies your need to use drawers and shelves -- if you even have access to any. Caddies afford the ideal place to stash your phone, your mp3 player and various office supplies. Screen-enhanced organizers and file compartments give you privacy from your neighbors. One of the particularly handy SOTO II Worktools is the briefcase holder that includes a slender storage dish and a newspaper rack. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Adaptability and Mobility in the Workplace:** Opportunity for innovation in creating versatile and mobile workstations that cater to the needs of temporary desk users. - **Decluttering Desk Space:** Disruptive innovation opportunity in designing efficient organizers that eliminate the need for drawers and shelves. - **Privacy and Personalization in Shared Workspaces:** Innovative solutions to create privacy and personal space within open office setups. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture and Office Supplies:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in designing furniture and office supplies that enhance adaptability and mobility in the workplace. - **Technology and Electronic Accessories:** Innovation opportunities in creating screen-enhanced organizers and storage solutions for electronic devices in the workplace. - **Workplace Design and Architecture:** Disruptive innovation in designing shared workspaces that balance privacy and personalization for temporary desk users. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Portable Personal Office Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beblau-vertical-office.md) - [Portable Desktop Workstation Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neo-box.md) - [Clutter-Tackling Desk Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-desk-organizer.md) - [Contemporary Dynamic Workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/officetopia.md) - [Modern Portable Work Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/worknic.md) - [Portable Organizing Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-organizing-desk.md) - [Vertical Desk Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tower-desk1.md) - [Scooter-Like Portable Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-work-station.md) - [Whiteboard Workstation Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deskboard-buddy.md)
