You do not need a broad desktop to get things done and organized -- as demonstrated by the Hidden Laptop Desk. This compact workstation has the space to accommodate a 15-inch notebook computer, it's got a drawer for storage and a flat writing surface that extends into two.
The a2 table integrates a hood on a track that can cover the recessed opening where your laptop is invited to sit. This enables you to close your computer and slide the top over it, concealing your machine and any small peripherals like mice, headphones and mp3 players that might be kept connected.
Access the retractable tray of the Hidden Laptop Desk while the electronics are covered. This configuration turns the piece of furniture into a convenient and compact console.
