Getting creative...

1. DESK
Everyone uses desks, either at home, at school, on their offices or even when they go to a restaurant.  Desks are very useful for placing things on top of it, for reading and also for writing. Many desks usually have one or more drawers or compartments, so that people can store things on it. But, many other desks are just single desks used for any function you’d like. Desks often come in many shapes, sizes and colors. The most typical desks are the ones that are made from wood and that are in a shape of a square or a rectangle. But desks are used in any contexts, for example we hear of the word desk in the following situations- an information desk at an airport, a reception desk in a wedding or other event, the front desk at a hotel, etc.

2. MIRROR
A mirror is an object with at least one reflective surface. Mirrors are commonly used for admiring one’s self, for decoration, and even for scientific purposes- for telescopes, lasers or even cameras. I personally think that mirrors are essential for girls and women- I mean who doesn’t have a mirror on her bathroom? You must have at least one for when you are dressing up, you need to take a look at yourself before going out. Also on the other hand, mirrors are great for decorating houses; it makes them look cleaner, bigger (with more space) and they are associated with a more modern style. Now there are even cell phones that have a mirror application!





IDEAS FOR COMBINATION: DESK & MIRROR
-    A desk with mirror on it’s surface (on top of it)
-    A mirrored desk
-    A mirror in the form of a desk
-    A mirror with a desk
-    A desk with drawers and the drawers are the only ones that have mirrors
-    A desk with a stored mirror (you can press it so that it comes up or down)
-    A reception desk decorated with pieces of mirror on its surface
-    A desk framed with mirror
-    A thick-squared mirror (sort of a table cloth) that you can place on top of a desk
-    A mirror on top of a desk


I think the idea of a desk with a stored mirror may be a viable and yet a creative product. This product may actually be useful for people, because for example, let’s say you’re on your room and you’re sitting there doing homework on your desk. You have papers on top of the desk and your phone is also placed there…the phone rings and your friend reminds you it’s almost time for her to pick you up…you need to rush and start getting ready, but also you need to write your last final thoughts on your homework...What do you do? Many would’ve written up whatever first comes to their mind and then leave everything there and then move to their dressing table. But what if you had the option to do both at the same time? You could just push a button in your desk, and a mirror would go up. As well, in the drawers of your desk you could store your make-up, blush, all of your eye shadows, and other cosmetics. So this way, you won’t have to move to another desk and you could finish up whatever you were doing in the same desk. Also, you could have the choice to click in the button for light to come up.

    Interesting! Mirrored desk would be a nice combination. Like you suggested, it would be definitely useful for multi-tasking. Good job!
