Space Saving Mobile Home Office Takes Inspiration from Mid-Century Aircraft
If you like the idea of a workspace that can be placed out of sight when it’s time to shut down for the day, take a look at this design inspired by the planes of the 1950s. The Blackhawk Secretary is an aviation-themed working station wrapped in a patchwork of aluminum panels and accented with exposed steel screws. On sale at the upscale Restoration Hardware, this office-furniture piece not only shuts down so you forget about work, but you can even move it totally out of sight and into another room.

This unique office solution sits on wheels and unfolds like an old wardrobe with plenty of shelves and drawers for storage on one side, and a small computer desk on the other wing. Industrial casters support up to 525 pounds, so no matter how heavy it gets, mobility wont be a problem. You can get this sturdy, six-foot-tall piece at Restoration Hardware for $4,000, and although pricey, it will surely last a lifetime—or two.
