Wall-Mounted Flow Desk Unfurls From Art Piece to Workstation Instantly

Merging art and functionality for useful furniture

Minimalist and multifunctional are two loosely used terms in design. A table or a chair featuring a small resting space for pets is termed multifunctional, while an uncluttered living room exudes a minimalist vibe to many. Rationally speaking, not all these loose claims make me excited and I keep wandering in search of the most intriguing product that backs its proposed claim. In pursuit of unique, minimalist, and multipurpose furniture, I came across Flow Wall Desk, and I have to admit, its design and functionality have left me floored.

Unlike mediocre furniture, the Flow Wall Desk doesn’t disappoint in form and function and transforms from wall art to a workstation in a jiffy. The mere idea of turning an artwork into a sculptural desk was enough to hook my attention. So, I reached out to the designer to learn more.

“I was inspired by recent global events and the longer-term trends to design a statement piece that lends dignity to the digital workspace through craft, warm textures, and durably engineered fastenings,” Robert van Embricq, the man behind the ‘Flow Wall Desk’ tells Homecrux.

The Flow workstation is not only multifunctional but also space-saving. The minimalist furniture is perfect for a work-from-home setup and has the ability to transform itself.

Serving as wall art in one instance, the furniture can be unfurled to transform into a wall desk offering enough space to rest your laptop and other work essentials. Once you’re done, it can dwindle back to function as wall art again.

The desk features exposed brass hinges that are responsible for the transforming nature of the furniture. The brass hinges, provide durability and stability to the entire structure and can hold up to 40 lbs of payload. Boasting a very neat design, the pivots are attached to the desktop with hinges. The outer veins have a hinge at the top and are attached to the wall, the rest of the veins have a wire running through them, thus offering a simple, yet clever design.

“With a single turn by hand around its axis, a tabletop is created and once in its horizontal position, the tabletop is supported by wooden slats, creating a more natural look and organic effect that also serves as a screen for more privacy, ” Embricq said while explaining about the functionality of the Flow Wall Desk.

The result is a horizontal work surface that is comfortable yet functional. Embricq is looking for more sustainable options to design the piece. Before he finalizes a more eco-friendly option, the Flow Wall Desk is alluring a lot of buyers.

You can order it from the official website for approx $3,000. If the pricing has you wondering; the Flow Wall Desk adapts to any interior environment and can even be used in libraries and hotels other than at home.
