Calligaris Desks

A Calligaris desk can be useful when the working area forms part of a wider living space and the furniture needs to look considered as well as provide somewhere practical to work. Start with the space and how you will use the desk before concentrating on its finish.

Work out how much usable surface you need

A laptop requires less space than a permanent monitor, keyboard and other equipment. Think about what normally stays on the desk, the chair you will use and whether there is enough room to sit and move comfortably once everything is in position.

Consider the desk as part of the surrounding room

Where a desk sits in a living or open-plan space rather than a dedicated office, Calligaris's wider choice of furniture and finishes can help it relate to pieces elsewhere in the room.

Check the overall dimensions carefully and choose the desk for the work you need to do rather than allowing a compact or decorative design to leave you short of usable space.
