Büchertablett, Auerberg, 2011Due to our many daily activities, a desk at home or in the office is often messy and chaotic. For this reason, the Büchertablett can be used as a storage place for objects normally populating a desk and can be seen as an extension to its surface; books, magazines, mobile phones, keys, glasses, etc., can be easily organized and arranged here. The particular shape of the legs under the object act as a cable passage for charging cables: i.e. smartphones, tablets and notebooks. The two metal parts run on a rail, so you can shift them dependent on the number of magazines or books. Maplewood for the basic element and anodized aluminium for the bookstands are the two materials used for this functional and playful object.Awards: Young and Design Award – Special mention Salone del Mobile, Milan 2011 www.auerberg.euFotos: Julia Rotter
