TL;DR: We believe that millennials and their money are easily parted.
> In 2016 Vitra, a high-end Swiss furniture company, unveiled Hack, a modular desk designed by Konstantin Grcic. Made of chipboard panels that slot into aluminium brackets, its £2,557 ($4,775) price tag sits awkwardly with its knocked-up-in-a-garage aesthetic – but, as with Delaktig, this unfinishedness is deliberate.
I believe also the name and price tag are very deliberate.
>The “flexible and dynamic” desk can be adjusted in height, folded up, turned into a sofa, drilled into and sawn.
Just like £ 25.57 each chipboard panels.
