DipaliZ Retro Geometric Desk Mat Natural Rubber Base

The DipaliZ Retro Geometric Desk Mat is a printed desk mat that serves as a mouse pad and a keyboard mat together. The design sets interlocking arcs and blocks in a seventies palette of burnt orange, mustard and olive. Three sizes are offered, so the mat can sit under a mouse alone or run the width of a desk. It suits a home office that has been decorated rather than merely equipped.

The story behind this design

Seventies graphic design worked in flat shapes and a tight palette, and both constraints suit a desk mat, where a photographic image would be a distraction under your hands. The arcs interlock rather than repeat on a grid, so the eye never finds a seam, and the three colors are close enough in value that the pattern does not compete with a screen. Burnt orange against olive is the period's most characteristic pairing and the reason this reads as of its decade rather than merely vintage.

Care

Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, then let the mat air dry flat. Do not machine wash, soak or iron it, and roll rather than fold it for storage so the printed surface stays flat.
