Office To Go

The Mayfair steamer trunk has a secret - it hides a complete office!  Furniture maker Timothy Oulton of London redesigned this antique steamer into a secretary - displaying a desk, file cabinets, bookshelves, and cubbyholes.  And when you're tired of looking at your office, roll one of the sides and close it, and voila!

Nice antique furniture. This furniture design is good in a house that doesn't have cabinets..

This idea is incredible! Oulton is very creative. I have the perfect place for something like this. Now I just need to find a Mayfair Steamer.

Wow, that's amazing! So useful for someone with a home-based office. Open...work..shut back and that's it!
I really like this piece of office furniture but when you think about this in context of office clearance, hasnt it dawned on anyone that this has just been made into a mobile piece of office equipment? :) I'm wondering if this can be recessed into a wall?
