While the idea of owning a laptop case which appears more fragile than my actual laptop seems a bit strange, I can’t help but take a certain liking to this plywood laptop case designed by Brian Kelly.

It is formed from two bent panels of plywood that slide along one another to encase the laptop, and the inside is lined with cork to provide additional heat resistance and protection.

Can’t say I would ever actually carry this around, but I think it would work nicely as a desk laptop bin of sorts depending on what type of desk you have, being as how the finish on the case might not match most wood desks.
