This desktop organizer features three drawers for optimal built-in organization and the legs elevate the unit for further storage space underneath. Ports on the top of the unit and along the back panel keep cable clutter to a minimum and textured grips prevent the unit from sliding or scratching surfaces.

This L-shaped desktop organizer offers a structured backdrop for privacy and also provides a structure for people who choose to use the area for books and other commonly used reference materials. The felt covering prevents scuffs and scratches and the small adjustable tray is ideal for smaller components such as glasses, keys or a wallet.

Two small compartments offer concealed stowing to minimize desktop clutter and a plug-in component provides USB charging via the hinged door. This unit is available in left or right positioning to accommodate a variety of workstation setups and the company also offers a “desktop multi-organizer” (sold separately) to add more organization accessories to the array.

Teknion TN Bag Drop

The Teknion store also offers a bag drop to minimize floor clutter around the home office. Rather than haphazardly discarding a messenger bag, purse or backpack, the structure provides a dedicated space for these larger items. The unit comes with a metal divider to help bisect the felt-lined top component as preferred and is available in left or right positioning depending on the setup. The company also offers a smaller “mini” bag drop for those so inclined.
