Project Goal
The mission of this project derives from a question: The pandemic pushes the transition of our work mode from in the office to the at-home. So how can we make the at-home work environment more playful?
'Pool' is designed for small object organization on your desktop at home. It is inspired by pool balls living at their table, the pool, with doing their work, that is play. Pool tries to merge the boundary between home and work, entertainment and severe task, official and personal.
