keep it secret - keep it safe

Lloyd Hartley Architects are currently looking for premises. 
During our prospective visits we've come across all manner of things.

 But this is just a little bit special...


Hidden beneath this cover plate in a concrete floor is....



This!


Combination unknown...

LHA Staple Off

There comes a time when a human must look into one's self and ask some serious questions, some of which can't be answered...

Here at LHA we are a supportive bunch and decided to lend each other some advice in order to help answer these behemoth queries, queries such as which way to tackle a stack of paper with a stapler!

Do you take Ben's 'toy soldier' approach and bang it straight up and down in the 12o'clock position?

Or perhaps you follow Mike and whip it in horizontally sending the 'aeroplane' across the page?

Or, maybe you're still a bit confused like myself and can't decide which is more appropriate... so you take the best of both, cut it up the middle, and fang it in sideways!
Considering I'm writing this post, I can also add that the 45degree pin allows for a near perfect fold when reading through multiple page stapled documents.


 

I hope this helps next time you're confronted by a stack of processed timber and armed with tiny pieces of folded steel!
