Objects of Design #99: Filing Rack

Perfect for the home office, this filing rack is both practical and pretty. For some time now, I have had a set of four of those industrial mail racks on the wall in the kitchen and it has to be said that they tend to be stuffed full of things that are waiting to be filed.

This takes that one step further and allows for a little more sorting out before you choose where to put each item.

It would also work quite well as a display for children’s drawings. I do find they tend to pile up on the fridge and then one day the last picture is too heavy for the magnet and the whole lot comes crashing down, at which point you realise that keeping last year’s Christmas list and the shopping for a dinner party that happened three months ago isn’t strictly necessary.

So here’s to filing and being a little more organised with our bits of paper.
