Product Description

First impressions now fold flat. The Paper Lounge Reception Desk unfolds from suitcase-thin to welcome-worthy in one satisfying sweep, giving you a front-of-house hub wherever "house" happens to be. Honeycomb kraft paper locks into a graceful arc that handles laptops, menus, PC's or badge printers without a wobble, yet collapses to briefcase depth the moment the crowd moves on. Pop it into an exhibition entrance, a pop-up restaurant for your Maître D, a coworking lobby—or park it in the hallway at home as a console for flowers, post and that bowl of unruly keys. Tool-free, planet-kind and light enough to carry, it proves reception doesn't need granite—just smart geometry and a little unfolding magic.

How to use

How the paper stools works: 

Simply open the stool as you would a book until the front and back covers are joined, then attach the velcro tabs. You’re done. 

How the Bench works:

You may need the help of a friend for this one, Using the handles at each end of the bench, pull apart the bench til you reach its maximum length, you can see the honeycomb “cells” stretch, then gently let go of the handles and the bench will shrink back to its natural shape.  

You can shape the bench to any shape you choose.

Please note, the product is made from a natural material and will behave like so. It will take several “stretches” for the bench to get to its eventual natural length and shape.
