The following is from the designers:


The Buro range is the result of Adrian and Jeremy Wright’s first collaboration with renowned design brand Lexon. The London-based designers were invited to create a product, or range of products, to celebrate Lexon’s 20th anniversary.

Ubiquitous items like staplers, hole-punches and calculators clutter up most of our desks. They rarely match or have any sense of unity. Here, the designers saw an opportunity to create a range of desk tools which work well and look great, both individually and as a set.

Buro brings together the objects commonly found on the desk into a coherent, practical range. With each item taking the form of a simple block, they can be neatly aligned or stacked in any orientation much like a collection of books.

Buro is available in three colour gradients – green, grey and purple.

Materials: ABS plastic with a rubberised finish.
