Woofy
(02 August 2007) - Cute and plastic, Woofy is a dog that obediently sits next to you all day, holding a pile of cables inside to keep your desktop neat. Designed by Gabriel Nigro, the figures are about the size of a real small dog. We like the way it's a big conspicious design element rather than a way to try to hide cables away like other products....

The Art of the Grid Notepads
(26 July 2007) - Without grids our lives would be much messier—not to mention less aesthetically pleasing. Grid-It! notepads, specifically Le Modulor by Le Corbusier, helped me to get more organized at home and at the office. Originally designed for his architecture practice, the grid system is based on mathematics and proportions of human anatomy. Different grid lines, lengths, spaces and sections encourage an alternate kind of note...

Griffin Elevator Laptop Stand
(20 June 2007) - With little more than a simple u-shape design, Griffin's Elevator solves a few different problems and offers a few added benefits for laptop users. The device is so handy in fact, that a certain founding editor appropriated the sample from my desk while I was out of town. Now nearly every desk at CH HQ has one and we're all the happier (and maybe...

Rebound Notebooks
(14 May 2007) - Brought up in "book–ish households" surrounded by the likes of children's classics such as Paddington Bear and Trixie Beldon mysteries, Aussie duo Natalie Crupi and Ben Mason quickly realized their mutual appreciation for well–designed classic book covers. The pair came up with the concept of using the covers to create blank notebooks after sifting through piles of texts at thrift stores, the couple stumbled...

Haworth Zody Office Chair
(22 February 2007) - I was very reluctant to give up my Aeron but decided to give Haworth's Zody chair a try. It comes with all the bells and whistles you come to expect from high end office chairs but with less of a jaw dropping price tag. A number of cranks, pulls and buttons create a fully customizable fit—the most innovative being an adjustable lumbar support (above...

Shredding Scissors
(06 June 2006) - With the rise in identity theft and the unrelenting solicitation from credit card companies it makes sense to shred all of the offers that hit your mailbox. Power shredders don't make the cut for the most attractive items in the house (there's an opportunity), take up a lot of space, and use electricity. These Japanese shredding scissors provide an inexspensive (under $20) and green...

Camo File Folders
(28 March 2006) - While the creamy manila variety have a certain generic appeal, keeping documents organized with these folders by cheeky Boston-based stationers Bob's Your Uncle, adds pop humor to the workplace. Available in orange, blue, and pink colorways, two of each color comes in a set. $12 for a set of six from Fred Flare. ...

Lovely Address File
(18 July 2005) - As the modern world speeds towards complete digital integration, we're silently mourning the fact that some of life's simplest pleasures are thrown out the window in the name of progress. Just last week, our copy of The Sunday Times was pointed out as "analog chic," and even the post lady scoffed at my request to buy stamps for my paper correspondences. If you're as...

Post-It Note Mosaic
(29 June 2005) - Never pay for sex, drugs, or office supplies, especially when you can put them to noble causes like Mental Hygiene's Post-it masterpiece. Assembled over a weekend in the artist's office, the wall art can be recreated or you could come up with your own effigy using the thorough instructions posted on the site. ...

Ikea's Camouflage Chair
(28 June 2005) - Office chair design seems to lag about 50 light-years behind everything else. Somehow form rarely balances function and most seating options succumb to the same set of boring standards. Leave it to Ikea to make something as democratic as the office chair a little bit fun and edgy. While their Svenning chair isn't revolutionizing the traditional shape of work perches (nor is it necessarily...

The Cubes
(25 January 2005) - The idea of working in a cubicle scares the pants off me. Maybe it's not as bad as it seems. It pays the bills right? Well, here are The Cubes. There are four cubical sets. Each containing its own little worker bee, three full walls, one half wall, computer, desk, (whatever else goes in one of those prisons) and even a sticker so that...

Made Unique
(06 October 2004) - Made Unique T-shirts combine humor and slick graphics. This one is is pretty easy for any designer to relate to and also summarizes the mission behind the company.
