This line of bFRIENDS desktop organizers is by British industrial design firm Pearson Lloyd. They're 3D printed by British manufacturer Batch.Works, out of recycled plant-based plastic that was formerly packaging, and make for quite the vibrant deskscape.

"bFRIENDS is an ambitious project to develop legitimate and deliverable closed–loop circular design principles into the workplace," Pearson Lloyd writes. "All products can be returned directly to Batch. Works. to be recycled into material for reprinting and reuse."


"The PLA can be integrated back into the production cycle and we can convert it into a new accessory. All bFRIENDS that are made from more than one material can be separated from one another by type at the end of a product's lifetime, allowing them to be fed into different cycles. Our collection makes it easy to see how we can complete the cycle and help preserve resources."






The bFRIENDS line was designed for Austrian furniture manufacturer Bene Office. (See also: bFRIENDS Power Modules.)
