Normann Copenhagen Flow Table Lamp
All of these things are perfectly beautiful. All of these things have designs that exhibit an understated elegance. All of these things will help your loved one keep everything tidy, organized, and just so. All of these things are items they can display proudly on their office desk or in their home. All of these things are things you should get for the neat freak in your life, even if that neat freak is you. By the way, has anyone ever told you that you have excellent taste?
Japanese Ceramic Mugs
Coffee is never to be sipped out of a mug with an ironic slogan or a gaudy logo. They know this, so get them a vessel that fully honors the delicately crafted beverage within. These Hasami ceramic mugs are made in Nagasaki, Japan out of a mixture of porcelain and clay. They stack for orderly storage, too. Aren't they truly beautiful? Buy for $56.
TRNK NYCBluelounge CableDrop Multi
Wireless charging is a gift from heaven, but it's not that practical yet. So things still need to be plugged in with cords, which generate unsightly clutter. Tame the fray with this genius device from BlueLounge. They can stick it out of sight—on the back of the dresser, under the desk—and never be bothered by the sight of a cable just, like, sitting there. Out in the open! Buy for $9.

Ideaco Granroof Slim Tissue Case
One thing neat freaks always have on hand: tissues. This gorgeous case conceals the godawful cardboard box most tissues show up in. It's understated and discreet, just like every one of their sneezes. Buy for $39.
IdeacoNormann Copenhagen Flow Table Lamp
The best lamps are also sculptures—just look at your loved one's dwelling spaces, and see how many museum-worthy lighting pieces you can spot. The Flow lamp is Zen-like in its purity. The thin structural elements articulate in three places, so they can position the LED in the head to properly light whatever beautiful object they're inspecting. Even if it's just a spreadsheet. Buy for $370.

Bluelounge Quick Peek
Your loved one is proud of their tidy storage system. The Quick Peek will help them organize it more intelligently. Take some photos of the contents of the storage box, then put one of these stickers on the box. Inside the companion app, scan the sticker and add the photos of what's in the box. Then, a year or two down the road, there's no need to open the box to be reminded of what's inside. Just scan the sticker again; the contents will show up on the phone. Buy for $10.
Blue LoungePoppin White Super Stacked
You don't expect them to keep their writing utensils in the cheap company-issued pen cup, do you? Poppin's desktop organization collection is smart, inexpensive, and has more clean lines than a Sol LeWitt. They get two letter trays, an accessory tray, and a (gorgeous!) pen cup. The set also comes with 12 matching pens and a silicone "This + That" tray for paperclips, change, or whatever. Buy for $55.

Kikkerland Bedside Caddy
Yes, the Kindle and magazines on their bedside table are neatly stacked. But you know they'd rather have them out of sight. This felt caddy does the trick. It slots between the mattress and box spring (or between the mattress and bed frame) where it functions like a little pocket. Buy for $18.
KikkerlandTurms Complete Shoe Care Kit With Wood Case
There are two ways to get perfectly shiny, scuff-free leather shoes. One is to watch for the first signs of wear, then immediately replace the shoes with a fresh pair. The other is to carefully clean and polish the shoes regularly. This shoe care kit will give your loved one all the tools and supplies they need, including a wide selection of brushes with different stiffnesses, four tins of polish, and even a lovely shoe horn. Of course, it all packs away into a handsome box. Buy for $975.

Inkaren Memo Clips
These chipboard paper clips are much more refined than the pedestrian metal ones. Plus, since you can jot notes right on them, it's a great way for your loved one to annotate their readings without leaving even a single pen mark in the margins. Buy for $6.
Joseph Shin/WIREDDocX Magazine Rack
You know they love their periodicals. And like any true fan of modern architecture, they love raw concrete. This magazine rack melds the two obsessions. Plus, the 14-pound sculpture is whimsically shaped like a computer folder icon. A digital symbol to cradle their analog passions. Pick it up from the retailer Industry West, which has a bunch of smartly designed items for your home. Buy for $159.
