open that drawer!
“As a society, our focus on sustainability is hugely biased towards environmental issues, on developing new products and technologies to address climate change. Yet the reality is, these solutions will not be effective unless we are all inspired as human beings to take more responsibility for our everyday lives and the decisions we make.”

“
With almost ubiquitous access to the tools and technology work requires, work has become a state of mind. We enter that state of mind whenever and wherever we access work-related data and communications. We enter a digital workspace.
But people do not exist in digital space. People sit, stand, move around, eat, and talk to each other. People are social. People thrive in environments where these very human behaviors are recognized, respected, and encouraged.

hidden drawers
is it a drawer? is it a shelf?
This interesting piece combines both the function of a drawer and shelf.
Now you can secretly hide all your personal items away from prying eyes!
If no one mentioned it, it just looks like an innocent shelf, until someone comes along and activates it with a magnetic key. I wonder if any magnet will work?
