If your home studio set-up lives on a collapsing black particle board horror show purchased from Argos in 1992, then please direct your gaze towards the Compact One, the most beautiful piece of studio furniture we’ve seen in a long time. Created by Audio Housing, a company based in Barcelona, the Compact One utilises mid-century modern design to create a practical desk fit for the swankiest of pads. This is an aesthetically pleasing piece that knows you need a pull-out tray to accommodate, say, a Juno-6, another one for your computer keyboard and mouse, and a top shelf for monitors and a computer itself, all while providing a neat solution for those trailing four- way extension leads and other wire-related muck in the form of a custom Velcro strap. The desk is made from Finnish birch plywood and comes flat- packed using a clever system that means you can assemble, take apart, and then reassemble the whole thing without fear of damaging it. Reserve yours now and we reckon you’ll never look back.
