Once upon a time, coffee tables were used to hold little more than cups of tea and reading materials, but now they must adapt to our technological needs. The Keeper Side Table does this with a clever design that helps to hide the unsightly side of electronics.
Joris Bonnesoeur's piece of furniture looks like a fairly simple example of contemporary design with bold features and no fussy details. Part of this is a secret container beneath the tabletop that can conceal your laptop adapter, hold your excess wires and even store an entire power strip so that your various devices can be plugged in and conveniently rested upon the Keeper Side Table. Just feed the cords through it and out the bottom, where they can trail off and connect to the wall socket.
