Tab Keeps Papers Visible on Your Desk Instead of Buried in Folders - Yanko Design
"Tab is a desk organizer that rethinks the file through form, material, and use. It is made from a single folded sheet of metal, forming a self-standing sleeve that holds papers, books, sketches, and everyday tools in one continuous, open structure. Instead of zips, lids, or clasps, it borrows the logic of a folder but leaves everything accessible from the top and side, removing the need for hiding or closing."
"The open, continuous form changes behavior in small ways. Because there is no lid to open or box to slide out, grabbing a sketch or document feels as low-friction as picking something up off the table, which means you are more likely to put it back when you are done. The metal walls keep everything aligned and upright, so even a handful of items feels ordered rather than precarious."
Tab is a desk organizer formed from a single folded sheet of metal that creates a self-standing sleeve for papers, books, sketches, and tools. The open, continuous geometry provides top-and-side access so items remain visible and ready without zips, lids, or clasps. The organizer holds active projects upright as a physical 'now' stack, enabling quick retrieval and low-friction return of materials. Metal walls align and support items to create order and stability. Minimal bends and a solid color keep visual presence quiet while maintaining structural clarity and ease of use.
