Scale 1:1, the contemporary furniture company committed to producing compelling and innovative products, launches Sidekick, a collection of mobile work pedestals aimed at eliminating the gap between hybrid, in-office, and remote employees. As a part of the DeskMakers family, Scale 1:1 understands the needs of today’s workers unlike any other manufacturer and Sidekick is no exception.
A trusted companion of the hybrid office that provides secure mobile storage and height adjustable workspace, Sidekick pedestals truly do it all – and look good doing it. Offering an innovative 3-in-1 solution for a better workplace, their ergonomic, patent-pending design builds upon the traditional strengths of the sit-to-stand desk and mobile pedestal categories by merging the two into a fluid, adjustable height workstation, lectern, and mobile storage unit in one. Its height adjustability and ease-of-mobility offer unprecedented flexibility. With Sidekick, companies can reconfigure their workspace by adding or removing furniture instantly, responding to the ever-changing needs of their team.
Available in four distinct variations, the Sidekick collection offers the ultimate in personalization. Tabletops on pneumatic lifts create an ancillary workspace, while casters keep things mobile. Type T features a unique locking tambour door for securing personal items. Type C provides a combination of traditional cabinet and mobile work cart. For Type B, the cabinet is replaced with box file drawer units. And Type W, also known as the workhorse, adds a sliding padded seat that one straddles like a hobby horse for adults, complete with foot stirrups for added comfort, and a hidden storage space for personal items. Multiple finishes are available for all four types, allowing for branding and personalization.
“Sidekick was born out of the inspiration to create a portable, mobile workstation designed specifically for the hybrid workplace,” stated David Winston, Director of Creative Design for DeskMakers. “It creates a fully functional workstation that is mobile and self-contained, making it ideal for home or the office.”
Designed for the modern individual, Sidekick works to create a more equitable and inclusive experience for all team members, in office or at home, by providing everyone with a space to call their own. Sidekick also works well in education settings where it serves as both lectern and projection equipment storage. In Information Technology, techs can keep valuable equipment in locked storage while roaming offices addressing issues. The flexibility of Sidekick provides solutions for many markets.
