Planning your workspace

Choosing a style that suits you
Wherever you choose to install your desk, it needs to match the style of your interior.

The choice of material should also be taken into account, depending on the style that suits you best: glass, oak, chipboard or metal, the variety is wide enough for you to find the ideal furniture.
Finally, color is the decisive element in your choice. White or black, colored, transparent or with a wood tint, your preference should match the style of the rest of your furniture and interior decor. Colors are more difficult to match than wood tones, which are easier to adjust to different decorative styles.
