Actually selling price for an item in this category would be maybe 20% less. The ATM lists for 1170 BP in the UK. . To expect the Encord to reach a more refined level when it was designed to a price point is unrealistic. For the money, the Encord delivers a product that is ingenious in it's construction.

It is clear that Sam Hecht was inspired by Jasper Morrisons ATM desk for Vitra. Which is fine for me. But sadly, starting from such a high standard, he did not manage to bring this concept to a higher level. On the contrary, he ruined it and ended up with a cartoon of a dometic desk: The subtable is meant to be a hideaway for the cable clutter. Great, but this way your desk can neither be positioned against a wall (at home) nor clustered with other desks (at the office) as you will need to leave a gap for the cables that need to find their way to the electronics (computer screen) on your desk.

Following the link to Industrial Facility, gives a better idea of its construction and rational, that being inexpensive and a challenge to the user to to discover the ways the table can be utilized. The drawings show some sort of tray that slides between the two surfaces. Not mentioned is if this is an accessory or just a suggestion or possibility. The drawings indicate the table is assembled from 5 parts with minimal skill and time required. This needs to be kept at the forefront in a critique, I would think. Ingenious!

In this respect, it reminds me of various peripheral spaces commonly encountered in the home, such as The Space Under The Cooker, or The Space Behind The Fridge, or the Gap Between The U Bend Of The Toilet And The Wall (perfect for a printer). What we need is another one of those? If you could inscribe working spaces into these spatial vortexes, you could really be on to something. Can't wait for the Fultimunctional Mobile Cabinet - There does not seem to be a lot of clearance between the slidey bit and the legs, so you can’t actually store things under the table and get at them again easily.
