Hack
The height-adjustable Hack table system by Konstantin Grcic counters traditional office desks with an innovative functional and aesthetic approach that satisfies the demands of today's startups and other young, dynamic companies: Hack can be folded up into a flat 'box' in just a few simple steps, transported and stored in a space-saving manner. Users can configure Hack as a standing or sitting desk or as a sofa, creating niches for work, meetings or relaxation.
