Drawers!
And we don't mean that as an insult.
If there is one thing we really, really miss it's desks with drawers.
Back in the day, all desks had drawers.
Then, probably due to flexible office design where no one has a fixed desk, drawers started to vanish from desks.
Regrettably.
And so it was with a small scream of delight that we saw Ragna Gutschow's desk at Grassimesse 2010.
Sadly we didn't get to speak to Ragna and so we don't know any more than we liked it.
And not just on account of the drawer - the general form and construction of the article appealing just as much as the touches such as the "hidden" storage compartments or the in-built card/note holder slots.
And the fact that no felt appears to be involved.
In general Ragna Gutschow's work seems to involve a lot of drawers, and in addition to the desk her "Würfelschrank" and "Sammelschrank" are also wonderful examples of why the world needs more drawers.
Drawers!
