We all know and love Boston-based Vessel, images of candela lights and squat benches may come to mind. Looks like Vessel had a new desk on the block, the brand new Squat Worktable functions as a versatile storage table so you can store things inside (think last minute guests dropped in and you need to throw all your mess into a hidden space). A flat-packed furniture piece, it has discreet cable-routing slots in the sides and lower panels that keep tangles of wires out of sight but close at hand. The worktable incorporates nearly 5 cubic feet of storage into a solid, flat-packed furniture piece. Birch and aluminum, available in natural or black, 36 x 36 x 29.75?, $499. Please contact Vessel for more information.

If you're in Boston, visit their store located on the edge of Chinatown near the Leather District at 125 Kingston Street. decor8 posted a tour of thier store a few months back, click here to view.

Channel 4 in Boston is running a contest to vote for Boston's best online. If you're a big Vessel fan, you can vote for them here (although I'm not quite sure how they landed in the luxury furniture category with DWR and Roche Bobois, but oh well).
