U-Shaped Desks
These babies have been popping up in executive offices everywhere, and with good reason. It appears as though users are finally hipping up to what the original U-shaped design was intended for. These desks provide users with more space to work, more storage, and more surface area all within arm's reach. It was this clever modular design that likely made affordable U-shaped office desks for executive use such a favorite in the past. However, it would appear that many users have devised a new reason for bringing back this clever design, and that is to impress. Executives in particular like the U-shapes because, when given a commanding view of the room, they give off an excellent air of welcome. Any visitor that walks into an office will seem to be greeted from all directions, especially since U-desks encircle their owners on three sides. Most users pick a side for a different task, designating one for computer work, another for written work, and another side with chairs on the end for potential visitors. The result is a versatile piece of equipment that serves as a master control center for professional business executives in both home and commercial offices alike!
Straight Front Desks
To be fair, straight front desks have never really gone out of style, but that doesn't mean they aren't always in! 2014 has come to find the sales of straight front desks for office use still going as strong as they ever were, and probably for the same reason: versatility. Straight front desks look good just about anywhere. Most of them look fine facing walls, facing away from walls, free standing, or even clustered in groups. Straight front desks are one of the oldest furniture shapes, and it's probably the classic design that makes these desks so ageless. However, a recent trend has emerged in which straight front office desks are beginning to take the place of reception desks in many lobbies and waiting rooms. This could be because sparse decorating makes a room look much bigger than it actually is, which in many cases, translates to a cleaner, less cluttered look. Waiting areas are often crowded with people, so when a place looks bigger, it doesn't make guests feel quite so claustrophobic. So whether you work at home, in a public office environment, an executive office, a bedroom, or a welcome area, straight front desks are never a bad choice!
Bow Front Desks
Very similar in overall shape to straight front desks, bow front desks are different in that they have a slightly curved front. The elegant subtlety of this curved front is part of what makes this desk style so popular with executives, and those who receive frequent visitors to their office. Guests enjoy feeling welcomed when they are in an unfamiliar space. Because they are better designed to face the center of the room rather than a wall, bow front desks can provide this sense of welcoming reception. Another reason the bow front trend has become so popular recently is that the curved front offers a bit more surface space by going past the typical perimeters of the desk. Users have more space to set things, and guests also have a sliver of space to write on if need be. Like straight front desks, bow fronts also make an excellent substitute for reception desks. If you are in search of a welcoming office space, furnishing it with anything other than stylish bow front desks for executive use else would be a mistake.
Corner Desks
We all know interior designers head the pack in terms of decorating. Whether it's in homes or commercial offices though, corner desks are becoming a big trend. Many designers are very space-consious, and it seems the goal this year is to save space. As we've established, choosing smaller furniture and sparsely decorating can dramatically impress the size of a room. Part of why corner desks are so popular is because, if they are placed in corners, they leave the rest of a room open, giving the impression of a larger, cleaner room.Corner desks are perfect for rooms with multiple purposes and those that like to work next to windows. Staying in the out of the way leaves space for lounge furniture in a reception area, storage space in an executive office, and room for cabinets, beds, and dressers in bedrooms, for those that keep their offices at home. If you are hoping for a way to save space in your office, shopping discount corner office desks for sale is a great way to start!
Wall Desks
Like corner desks, "against the wall" desks are also excellent space savers. Not only do these desks stay out of the way by sitting up against walls, but they also provide super storage space in the form of cabinets, bookcases, or hutches. For this reason, wall desks are perfect for shoppers who like all-in-one sets. They make great companions for owners who use the same desk to perform multiple jobs. Often referred to as "workstations," wall desks can be placed anywhere against a wall rather than just against a corner. A modular design ensures that everything is at hand's reach with a wall desk. Executives and interior designers often prefer these office workstations with modular when decorating home and commercial offices because they are often considered the most stylish and the most functional. In fact, desks like the NT31CRY Napoli Series Executive Wall Desk are some of the most popular on the market. They may the last on our list, but they certainly are not the least on the trending charts!
