Ryerson University School of Interior Design graduate Shirley Pui-Yu Cheung asks:

Why not maximize a piece of 4' x 4' baltic birch wood by taking advantage of its natural beauty and making it multifunctional? An occasional side table that functions like a study or laptop table with an extra height space for a glass of juice or a book. When not in use as a laptop table it can be easily transported by grabbing on to the oval cutouts. Not only is it multifunctional but its non-conventional form makes doing work more fun!
