What if we reinvented the past?

Happy Hour & Schreibtischteiler John

Alba Lucia Aviles Semjevski

The Schreibtischteiler John is a modern desk divider meant to help you find privacy in an open work setting. It solves the inevitable problem of constant distractions that are so common in shared office spaces.

The Happy Hour cup holder is a practical and comfortable way to enjoy an aperitif with your loved ones. Its wooden finish gives it a timeless look, and its space-saving design ensures you'll always find a place for it in your home!

My source of inspiration for the desk divider "Schreibtischteiler John" was a wall cabinet found at the Tiroler Volkskunstmuseum in Innsbruck.

As Found. Design Inspiration from Regional Folk Craft Museums.

Human history can be found in the things we have made and used. We furnish our world with everyday objects, works of art and ritual artefacts. Many of these things seem to have a story of their own, and some even have a career that has brought them to the museum. Taken out of time and context, they can now be found and discovered in glass cabinets.
