Office Desk

Anybody know of any suppliers for office desks?

I'm looking for a smaller version of something like this.



The large part of the desk is quite deep and I'm looking for something smaller...

Anybody?

'staples' are usually fairly good at office stuff.

Been through their site a few times - could not find anything suitable.

---------- Post added at 21:14 ---------- Previous post was at 21:11 ----------



Thanks - don't want anything special - just a flat L shaped surface - and none of that rounded "designer" rubbish - they are pain to sit at as the bulge gets in the way....but that enough of my belly!!

---------- Post added at 21:17 ---------- Previous post was at 21:14 ----------

BTW - contents to fit:

Towers x 2 (under desk)

19" TFT, keyboard, mouse, small speakers with sub under desk
Small Laser Printer
HP Inkjet Printer
Small audio mixer
49key Korg keyboard - that was going on the smaller part of the desk
Router, NAS

Quite a bit of kit for a small ish desk!

One printer might go on a pedestal type thing if the desk lacks room.

Re: Office Desk

May be able to make you something along those lines in veneered (beech - oak - walnut - maple - mahog) chipboard - laquered to a sheen of your choice. Would probrably come in over the price, but it would be bespoke, to your design\specs. (dont know about delivery though)

Re: Office Desk


Thanks for the links Coggy! Already looked at link 1, but links 2 & 3 were new to me!

I think that what I'm looking for - to narrow it down a bit is a a desk / table with a 600mm (or less) depth. The problem is that most of these are called "return" desks and are normally attached to a main desk which is normally 800mm in depth.

I'm looking for a desk (or L-shape) which is 600mm or less for both desks - that's the problem I think...

Hey! Thanks for that Alferret! That's a very kind offer - if I can't find anything off the shelf - I give you a shout!
