The Puzzle Table is a creation from designer Hsien Chang, who took the concept of sliding puzzles, and applied it to your everyday computer desk so that users can see what is stored within the desk by a simple slide of its dividers. Each of the baskets inside each grid are removable allowing the user to sort and organize the contained items easily.

If you are interested in having a place in your home to get some work done but are short on space, then check out this Convertible Compact Desk ($500) from Crate & Barrel.

What appears to be a 30-inch cabinet can easily be converted into a 55-inch full-size desk with a quick slide of its top panel.

It comes in a deep ebony stain finish, and features generous storage space, cubbies with removable dividers, ball-bearing drawer glides, and cord management cutouts.

Looking to re-decorate your home office? Check out the Level 34 modular office system designed by Werner Aisslinger for Vitra.

What’s with the 34 you ask? It represents the distance (in centimeters) between the floor and each of the modular components, and is significant because of the visual aspect of having several pieces of furniture connected as one, all at a uniform hight.

The office system allows for multiple desks, filing cabinets, and even an inspirational bench. Moreover, it has cable baskets incorporated into the bench structure which means you can keep all of your electronics connected while keeping any cables hidden

The Emperor Workstation might be made for die hard video gamers, but imagine how much work you could get done on one of these everyday…that’s at least like 20 TPS reports or something.

This bad boy is a a “ergonomical solution that enhances comfort, productivity, and gaming work experience” by giving you features such as three TFT displays, light therapy, THX-sound, an air filter, and possibly an overinflated geek ego. Oh and in case you were wondering how you get into this thing, a simple push of a button makes the arm holding the displays lift up to allow for your magnificent exit.

The Eclipse Office Partioning System is considered the future of cubicle workspaces by some.

Not only does it roll around and look like a mini-spaceship (sort of..if you squint your eyes), but it comes with all sorts of high tech stuff. For example, the top shade can be projected onto, meaning the operator of the system can visually project themselves into any environment they please…like a intergalatic space battle. The Eclipse also comes with video cameras, integrated speakers, and embedded lights.

Sadly, the Eclipse Office Partitioning System by Marcus ward Curran is a mere concept at the moment, so for now you’ll just have to throw a blanked over your cubicle and pretend your in one.

Summer is officially upon us, and if you are lucky enough to work by a window, then you have probably started fantasizing about running out of the office and rolling around in the grass…Ok that’s probably just me, but it I’m sure most will agree that it has become harder to focus now that the days are brighter and the weather is perfect for…well anything besides sitting at work. While you probably can’t get out of your job duties, you could at least bring nature closer to you with the Sensory Lamp by Sara Rossbach.

The Sensory Lamp is meant to enhance creativity and productivity by creating a closer relationship between our work environment and nature.  The lamp has lights that mimic the natural day cycle, slowly changing in color and intensity throughout the day.

The smell of the grass, along with the act of nurturing the grass acts as a sort of therapy and increases work productivity and happiness.

The snack vending machine has long been a favorite hang out for office workers.  Often containing choice delectables like mini-donuts, fruit snacks, chocolate candies, and a variety of potato chips, the vending machine can usually offer a treat to fit any mood.  However, there come days when a Hershey bar just won’t do, those days where everything seems to be going wrong, and you just want to go break something.

The solution to this problem comes in the form of the Passive Aggressive Anger Release Machine, an interactive sculpture by Yarisal and Kublitz.   Simply insert a coin into the Anger Release Machine, and feel your anger fade away as a piece of China slowly moves forward until it is released and falls to the bottom of the machine and shatters.

Have you ever tried replacing the water tank on a typical office water dispenser?  If yes, then you know how absurdly hard it is to get the water tank into the dispenser cabinet without fumbling and spilling a gallon of water all over yourself.  Well luckily someone finally got fed up and did offices around the world a favor by making the Right Side Up Water Dispenser

Did you get a big raise recently, along with a new bigger office? Then perhaps you are on the market for a new office desk that will properly exemplify your new elevated status in the company. Well if if your raise involves a new sign on your office that reads CEO then I may have found your what you’re looking for.

The Executive Desk is a fully functional visual and kinetic desk by artist Dale Mathis that is perfect for the man who needs to see the bigger picture of how things work, and who doesn’t mind spending a measly $21,000. Aside from the fancy woodwork and intricate moving gears, the desk also features trays for your keyboard and mouse, which in my opinion in simply not incorporated into enough desk designs.
