It Slices, It Dices: Desk/Bookshelf Combo. Think About It

Just what was Belgian designer Bram Boo thinking when he conceived this desk/shelf combination for his Novela collection? Hard to say for sure, but we suspect it was an effort to follow his goal "to produce pieces that constantly surprise the user, with a focus on functionality and flexibility so that the object adapts itself to the surrounding space and to the need of the moment!"

We like its less-is-more/multi-functional aptitude, but what we like more is Boo's challenge to the user: to make it work and to make you think about how you interact with your stuff (and do so more efficiently). So, how would you use this in your home? ::Bram Boo via ::Yanko Design
