Zenblocks Bring Balance, Distraction To Desks

The Zenblocks don’t really do anything. Hand-carved from sustainable urban tree growth and rubbed with mineral oil, the angular wooden nuggets want you to touch them. Handle, stack or arrange the one to two-inch blocks in whatever way your subconscious desires. Build a tower, pile or delicately piece together a desk arch — the balancing blocks are there to channel your distractive energy into something pointlessly constructive. A six-piece block set is $24 and comes carved either from walnut or a walnut/boxed elder mix. [via zenblocks]
