Woodendot, a design studio and furniture maker from Spain, has created Alada, a wall-mounted shelf that transforms into a desk.
The design of the shelf was inspired by the movement that birds draw on the sky when they move their wings up and down.

This simple movement enabled the designers to seamlessly transform the furniture piece from a wall desk to a decorative shelf in just seconds, or vice versa.

When folded and on display as a shelf, the minimal design of Alada allows for invisible storage hidden behind, perfect for gadgets or notebooks.
