The Design

About Wavy Stůl

Design byl inspirován přírodními prvky. Psací stůl byl vytvořen s motivem vody, aby se domů dostal pocit přírody. Deska stolu vytváří efekt vlnění, které vytváří kapka vody. Hrana psacího stolu plní funkci. Nenechá spadnout psací potřeby na zem. Je také jako meditační nástroj při přemýšlení nebo relaxaci, protože je zde možnost válet malé kuličky podél čar. Psací stůl je vyroben z neporézního materiálu, takže otevírá více možností a mnohem více svobody. Uživatel tak může pracovat s notebookem nebo malovat akvarelem.
