Formwork Desk Tools

$19.00

From Industrial Facility’s brilliant Sam Hecht and Kim Colin is a range of desk accessories designed for Herman Miller. Formwork is a modular system of containers that accounts for modern tools and frequency of use; the pencil cup has a ledge for a memory stick, while the stacking trays can be arranged (and rearranged) so that daily-use items are easy to access and less-needed items (like paper) are tucked away. The six pieces from this intuitive series are equally useful as individual organizers or as the full set.
