“Ala” is Spanish for “wing,” so “Alada,” Woodendot’s new folding desk, might loosely be translated as “take flight.”

As a metaphor for freedom, Flight is apt because the space-saving desk will help you streamline and clear out clutter, but it also evokes the movement of this clever convertible piece, which is modeled on a bird’s flapping wings.

And Alada isn’t only a desk. When placed in the upright (storage) position, it becomes an elegant shelf with a secret hidden slot for storing notebooks, desk accessories, even your laptop or iPad.

Alada also conceals its function with discretely hidden hardware for a “timeless folding desk that allows you to take the most advantage of your space.”

Made of solid oak and ash/oak plywood, Alada is available in four finishes: natural, white pigmented, white, and black.
