tim vinke: kruikantoor
'kruikantoor'
'kruikantoor' is a portable office made from EPS foam and covered with a coating of
polyurea hotspray. the office, consisting of 2 chairs, a table, light, electricity connection
and storage, can be put together into one entire unit or taken apart to create a complete
office environment. equipped with wheels, 'kruikantoor' allows users to swiftly change
work locations.
one legged table top can be slid into the 'kruikantoor' for support
Well, that a great idea for a compact unity for transport, but I get an unconfortable overall feeling about this.

I get the same feeling....but I think its the setting and the "model"....sorry. I think the idea is fun though.

Agree with all of you. The thing could be much cooler too - more geometrical and cleaner but with the same originality - perhaps he didn't have enough time - the surrounding really are bloody awful - taken in the workshop corner I guess...

Looks like a response to grotty grad school studio conditions to me! I like the compactness and portability of it, though!

I like the integration of a coffee maker :) Shows what we really care about in our office. The presentation is indeed terrible, how did this happen?
Nonetheless, funny concept and there is potential in the thought I think. You could store like 5 "offices" in a small space and only occupy the space when there is actually somebody working on it. I would argue for a way to keep your items on the table while it is stored, then you can immediately continue when you are back at work.

If this didn't look like an industrial waste bin I'd be a lot more excited about it. Still, a great idea.
tim 06.30.10

Clever idea with lots of potential. Keep up the good work!
Just imagine an office filed with a lot of Kruikantoor units. Wouldn't that be fun?

What a waste of valuable space and materials! You people realy think this is a good concept?! Come on!
DAO 06.30.10
Like many originally designed stuff: Nice idea, funny concept, but of course totally useless.
By the way, for who's interested: "Kruikantoor" means literally "trundle office".
