Names of the Typical Desks You Can Find in an Office

Names of the Typical Desks You Can Find in an Office

There are different types of desks you can find in the furniture market. In the office furniture category, however, we can trim down the list into several types. Here are the names of the standard desks you can find in a workplace.

Pedestal Desk

Pedestal desks are usually a combination of storage cabinets and a top resting rectangular plane. They are typically styled and shaped to fit various offices' interior design and arrangement demands. Sometimes the storage cabinet comes to the right or left of the desk, and in most cases, the large size of this kind (more recognized as Double Pedestal desk) comes with storage cabinets on both sides, while leaving the center empty for the user's position. There are many different variants of pedestal desks available in the furniture market, including the ones featuring Metal, Victorian oak and Antique oak.

L-Shape Desk

If you see a desk that has a surface like a letter L, it's basically the L-shape desk. However, it can sometimes be a combination of two pedestal desks configured to form an L-shape desk to satisfy a certain office arrangement. This type of desk is usually best for an open concept working area and is a perfect fit for active office workers. The main portion of the desk is called the shell while the extended portion is called the return or bridge. With an additional desktop surface, it allows broad work area and at the same time extra storage cabinets available in the bridge, though some bridges don't have them. There are L-shape desks as well that don't have any storage cabinets at all, but only the desktop surface. There are also those where the shell extends upward like divider furniture.

U-Shape Desk

U-shape desks are comprised of a central desk and two side returns that are assembled in a U form. Think of an L-shaped desk with an extra wing. It is best for those looking for even broader desk space. It is ideal in home offices or offices with lots of floor space, though it can also turn a limited space into a operational work area. It is like a pedestal desk enhanced to include maximum storage system, functional partitions, and to hold computing devices altogether.

Computer Desk

Computer desks are used to hold, as its name suggests, computing devices in homes and offices. They come with functional features, including a keyboard tray, partitions for the system tower, other peripheral devices and documents, and a plane that is wide enough to hold the monitor and allow handwriting space. The simplest form of this kind only comes with a tray to hold the keyboard and mouse, while the most elaborated form can have drawers and extensions. Computer desks also come made in different materials, including those that are made of wood, metal, a combination of both, and more elegantly, the ones with the top resting durable glass.

Reception Desk

While reception desks are typically designed to fit all spaces and requirements, their construction is for the purpose of allowing the receptionists a work area and at the same time giving the kind of lasting impression to customers with its elaborated shapes and styles. The most notable feature of a reception desk is its transaction counter, which is usually positioned above the desk. And like the pedestal and computer desks, reception desks, depending on their construction, can also come featuring storage cabinets and functional partitions, and can hold a monitor while allowing enough space for paper works. A typical reception desk comes in an L shape while the circular types also capture the imaginations of many office space planners. Office furniture shoppers can choose between contemporary, traditional, and transitional styles.
