June 20, 2007—Humanscale’s new desking solution, Slim Line, offers space savings and integrated technology while supporting a suite of ergonomic tools for a healthy and comfortable workstation experience, says the company.
Designed by The Humanscale Design Studio to meet the challenges of today’s home office or office work environment, the Slim Desk provides convenient storage and technology access in an attractive design, according to the company.
A built-in power supply, USB dock, and data ports, including speaker and microphone, are conveniently positioned within the user’s reach. Sliding worktop panels keep technology access out of sight and out of the way, and also provide storage space below the work surface. Notebook computers up to 17″ are easily stowed in this area.
Slim Desk offers added ergonomic function and space savings through its integration with Humanscale’s Access Rail, which provides a mounting surface so desktop tools can be attached in easy-to-reach positions while keeping desktop space clear. Monitors, task lights, printers, and faxes, telephones, and paper management devices are easily mounted to the Access Rail, the company notes.
To maintain order and enhance the Slim Desk’s streamlined esthetic, cable management is hidden within a leg of the desk. Additionally, keyboard supports and CPU holders can easily mount to the Slim Desk’s underside.
Designed with sustainability in mind, the Slim Desk is constructed of aluminum extrusions, eco-resin, wood veneer, and steel. The Slim Desk is 99% recyclable and designed for quick disassembly.
Slim Desk was introduced during NeoCon at The Merchandise Mart, Chicago.
Humanscale’s Switch Mouse received a Gold Award in the Office Accessories category.
