Daniel Schofield will probably have most people fooled when they first lay eyes on his simply deceptive furniture piece dubbed the Shifty Desk.
Walk by the Shifty Desk and most will probably assume that it's just a simple hallway counter with one functional front drawer for storage. However, take a good grip with both hands, pull and it'll reveal a whole new space that even more items can be put in. The interior reveals different spots that have been compartmented for several items such as agendas, paper, staplers and any other belonging that could use a home when not in use.
The Shifty Desk is a clever design that's deceptively simple. It saves and provides space, which is a combination that most home owners demand in furniture.
