On Trend: Wireless Lounging
Cut the cord on outmoded ideas of comfort with these furniture picks that make the most of your mobile time
Are you currently reading this from the desk in your home office? Or are you more likely to browse the Web from a more comfortable perch? As the use of Wi-Fi devices has skyrocketed, our likelihood of booting up the ol' desktop computer to surf the Web has just as rapidly declined. The new mobile lifestyle isn't just about taking that smartphone outside; it's about checking emails at the breakfast table, reading from your tablet while tucked in bed and popping on the laptop in the living room.
But finding that sweet spot where a) you're not hunched over, b) the screen is at the right angle and c) the laptop or other device isn't burning the tops of your thighs is tricky, to say the least. Thankfully, furniture designers have taken note and are introducing designs to help us easily unplug at home with our wireless devices.

| The hidden compartments in BoConcept's Occa Coffee Table are perfect for stashing remotes and magazines, but the top is even more clever; raise it up and you have a desk for your laptop right in the middle of the living room. Your back will definitely thank you. Tell us: Where is your favorite spot for checking email or browsing Houzz? We'd love to know. More: Thanks, Steve: Apple-Inspired Design at Home |
