Space saving office tools

When designing office space we are always told by the client that they want to ‘maximise their space’ so we are always looking for crateful ways to achieve this. Upon our trawls through the wonders of the web we have just stumbled upon this cleaver little design by London-based studio DesignWright. The Buro range for Lexon collects up common desk objects such as staplers, hole punchers and calculators into a stack or a line. Buro is made from ABS plastic with a rubberised finish and is available in green, grey and purple.




We think we need to make a purchase for the hi design office!
