Copenhagen Office Cabinet

The problem in small spaces is not only getting multiple functions out of furniture, but making the furniture adapt to different conditions. For instance your desk may be covered with papers and your computer when the doorbell rings but you want the place to look neat quickly. That is what I like about this compact desk from Room and Board- the desk portion essentially is a drawer unit that pulls out to give you leg room and slides away, hiding the contents. It has a file drawer, additional storage and wiring holes at the rear. The photo after the fold shows it being used for a full size tower case, but there is insufficient ventilation for this. Great for a notebook, though! ::Room and Board via ::swissmiss

This is a very cool idea and an excellent design but the price is a little steep. Has anyone seen something similar for less cash?
