A curved desk is designed with - you guessed it - a subtle or dramatic curve, allowing you to sit right at the heart of your workspace. Unlike traditional rectangular office desks, this design keeps everything within easy reach while adding a little flair to your home office.
The best part? The curve maximises your surface area without stealing your entire floor space - a win-win for anyone working from home in a tight spot.
For those after something with tech-savvy features and even smarter storage, Koble’s Gino Corner Smart Desk is well worth a look - blending modern design with built-in charging. Fancy.
Let’s face it - home offices can be tricky. You need enough space to work comfortably, but you don’t want a desk that dominates the room. This is where a curved desk shines.
It fits like a glove - Curved edges soften the space and slot nicely into awkward corners or open-plan areas.
Feels made for you - The shape naturally positions you at the centre, making multitasking less of a faff.
Pairs perfectly with filing cabinets and storage - Making it ideal for keeping the chaos under control.
