Seoul-based industrial designer Jina U has designed a brilliant desk and accompanying chair that not only looks great, but is also very practical and functional.
Named ‘The Soundbox Desk’, it features a vintage style design with an equally old-school sound feature.
Instead of high-tech speaker systems that require a high voltage of power to function, the desk has a built-in docking station that amplifies the sound from your smartphone through a large copper amp resembling a phonograph horn.
This creates a fantastic, low-energy and low-tech amplifier.
The desk is made of Acacia wood, copper, and steel, and finished in a combination of white, turquoise, and natural shades of brown.
