Many businesses have shifted their office interiors towards open-concept styles to increase collaboration which can cause disruption for those trying to get work done, so the 'COCO' desk is here to offer an alternative. Designed by MASHstudios, the desk features a series of electrical functionalities built in, while the shifting design enables it to be used in sitting or standing positions.
The 'COCO' desk has been designed along with the 'KINNEY' wall system that is essentially a shifting series of dividers that are covered in wool and felt materials to inhibit sound pollution. Both of the office interior products acknowledge the increasing need for new solutions for modern workplaces to help provide individuals with a way to get work done in an open-concept space.
