Hasta La Ideas

pAt the dentist’s office I never pay much attention to my dental charts or even the cute dental assistant; my eye is always drawn to that kick-ass swing-arm Dr. Goodteeth has got the lamp on, which despite being huge seems capable of incredibly precise adjustments./p

pI’m reminded of that by Humanscale’s A HREF=”http://www.humanscale.com/products/product_detail.cfm?group=M2″ M2 Monitor Arm/A, which has a similar aesthetic and won Bronze in the 2010 IDEA Awards. /p

pThe bulky gas cylinder used by some other swing arms, which has a tendency to fail, has been swapped out for a more reliable and long-lived mechanical spring. And although the M2 is only made from 52% recycled material, the sum of its parts is 99% recyclIable/I, and on top of that it’s built to last–Humanscale’s offering a 15-year warranty. Best of all, I can look at it and appreciate its looks without being interrupted by that drilling noise./p
