Ideation


Concept 2 was chosen for further development. The reason for this choice was based around its unique form factor that differentiates itself from common designs on the market, the idea of having the desk unfold from a slim form is the ideal approach to space saving and ease of transporting the desk.



Final Design


Piano hinges and mending plates are used to unfold and fold.
