    He forgot to cast the keyboard, mouse and pen…

    I suppose if you absolutely have to have concrete, these are beautiful in a minimalist kind of way. Glad someone is doing something that isn't plastic.

    I wonder if this set was his source of inspiration: http://www.umamy.com/main/home_accesories/concret
    Nice work although i Think they have taken the idea a few steps further.

    NBY, similar although these look a lot better.
    And, by the way, looking at these UMAMY, concrete Iphone stand?? I agree with you they take it a step further, shame it's in the wrong direction..

    can't like this despite its apparent 'nicety'.

    using the same material regardless of an object's function, just to create a set?
    so passé.

    I think they look really nice and blend in well with the office environment without being too distracting and causing procrastination.

    I prefer this to the dull standard IKEA style offices we have all come to expect.
