Mechanical Bureau by Joe Paine

Joe Paine's mechanical bureau isn't mechanized because the act of lifting a desk cover is too taxing. It's mechanized because Paine is a fan of the vintage mechanics of farm equipment from the last century. The bureau, with its extending work surface and protective cover, is also attractive to those who need to force themselves away from their laptop from time to time. With a simple crank, a heavy wood cover hides the computer stored inside, and maintains your work-life balance.
