A new way to work: On the ball!
All those stuck in a stuffy cubicle have dreamed of the day they could break free! Thank goodness Michiel can der Kley designed this amazing compact workstation for Gispen.

In another lifetime I was completely one of those who worked in a very boring looking cubicle, you know the ones with the gray felt and high walls. This would have been a welcome sight! van der Kley designed Globus originally for the corporate office but than saw there was an interest for it in the home, cafe and other lobby areas. You can now use it with your Xbox or even hook up a tv! The “ball” opens in the center to reveal a comfy swivel chair and a sturdy pull down board for your laptop. When not in use it can be closed, locked and with the convenient casters, easily moved from one area to another! Genius! I just love the sleek style and the comfort factor which might just equal more productive employees! Tell your boss you are really thinking outside of the box, actually I would say “ball”! At the moment it is only available in white, but can’t you just see it in fun, eye-popping colors? I am confident in saying this would make those long lay over waits in the airport much more bearable!

Is this something you could see working in yourself?

I work from home and have been trying to find the perfect work desk. That looks FANTASTIC! I love the design and the ability to close it up and have it look like a mini sculpture.
Definitely a great find!
