Coolest Desk EVER!

This could very well be the coolest desk ever created… behold MILK.

I found it earlier this morning somewhere out there. I saw some random link and boom, there it was. The coolest desk I have ever seen. Sure I have a great desk with loads of space. It even has adjustable legs. This thing is called MILK and was designed by Soren Kjaer owner of In2media, a new media design company out of Denmark. OK everyone, HOLY CRAP, this is one cool desk. Wanna know why?

Thats right, you can get a special fish tank that fits right in to one of the storage areas. Like huh? Fish in your desk. I couldn’t believe it either but there they are. Fish. Ok, so beyond the damn fish this thing really is something special in terms of how it is designed and how it functions. I dont think that Soren left anything out. There are four storage containers built in that are flush with the table top. That means your not going to snag something on the lids. They look pretty big too.

MILK’s working surface measures 55 1/8 by 25 2/8 inches. Thats a pretty big desk. Not Google CEO big but it’s enough room for a couple of Apple’s 30 inchers with some room to spare. MILK also sports a cool cord compartment in the back big enough for your little sister to live in. I love this idea. I have more cords under my desk that I occasionally get entangled and have to cut myself free. Makeing a compartment for them IN the desk is just plain genius.

Simple solutions to complex problems… sounds like good design to me. The web site says that the only visable cords are the power cord for the desk. Hold on a minute… a power cord for the desk itself? Thats what they say. MILK is height adjustable with the touch of a button. Thats where the power cord comes in, it has an electric motor that does all the heavy lifting for you.

So I will begin taking donations imeadiatly cause you just know this thing is going to cost as much as a Hyundai. I hope I am wrong but in my experience you get what you pay for and this is no Ikea particle board desk. Anyway I think I may have rambled on long enough, have a look for yourselves at MILK.DE. You might also be interested in Soren’s new media company, In2media. They have one kick ass website and some real nice work to look at on the inside. Enjoy
