Design desk launching at Design Indaba

17 Jan 2011

The Concept Designer's desk, to be launched at Design Indaba 2011, is a fully functional work station for the needs of designers in various industries. It includes a built-in light box for sketching overlays, as well as a utility rail, which enables the designer to clear the work space and move the keyboard and monitor in order to have an uncluttered work surface.

The cleared work space allows for many design activities such as story boards, concept sketches and overlay tracings to be the key focus while the computer is not far away.

The manufacturers, C.O. Designs, have followed the current ergonomics trends which emphasise the importance of body movement within a work station. It offers a sit/stand desk frame, which will allow the user to conveniently and seamlessly alternate between seated and standing positions. The importance of active movement, within a workspace, is to combat health ailments such as backache, circulatory and muscle tension caused by long periods of sitting. The Sit-Stand desk is designed to cater for these needs with the ease of activating a pushbutton.

The company also offers a wall unit created out of hollow core, an environmentally friendly product which is extremely functional and light in weight, making it an ideal product to reduce carbon footprint. For designers, it offers the opportunity to print graphic design images onto the surfaces.
