After charming our senses with the remarkable bathtub and washbasin fusion Symbiosis, Ljubljana-based design studio Desnahemisfera amazes us with a high-tech savvy office desk named Katedra designed for Donar d.o.o. This functional furniture item is a high-tech desk that also charges your phone and does it in an elegant manner. Just place the phone on its surface, on the built-in wireless phone charger (AirCharge), and watch it turn from white to red to green as the phone stocks power.

Here’s what the product description has to say about this revolutionary desk/charger combo:

“Katedra office desk is a triumph of contrast; a large white surface leans onto a solid wood block that mimics stacked beams. The block has three push-to-open drawers and the desk itself is made out of Kerrock, which is fully recyclable. Its large working surface has a built-in wireless phone charger AirCharge, so your phone will never run out of juice while you are working. The charger is connected to the LED-charging indicator, which is flashing white when in standby mode and turns red when you place your phone on it. When the phone is fully charged it turns green.”

Contrasting materials helped shape this contemporary desk design. A curved white Kerrock surface rests one side on what resembles a stack of wood beams. Three push-to-open drawers help better disguise its function and appear sleek and contemporary. A pocket under the high-tech desktop can hide a keyboard or a laptop, helping you keep the ambiance uncluttered.
