Online education and work-from-home culture paved the way for the sudden increase in demand for study tables/desks. What type of desk should you choose? It depends upon a number of factors such as needs, style, layout, and space available. It would also depend upon whether it is for a child or an executive. Necessity is the mother of all inventions. Different types of desks/study tables are now available in the market. Whether you are working from home or the office, having a proper study table/desk can increase your productivity to multifold.
Let us have a look at the different types of desks that you can choose from:
Standard Desk
These are the traditional and most common types of work or study desks that you might have seen in various households. They are usually rectangular in shape with a flat surface on top and legs to support it. Small drawers or compartments are there to help you sort out writing or other material. They are great if you have a lot of writing work or if you are in a profession where you need a lot of space to do your work such as an architect. They come in various materials such as wood, metal or even a combination of both. They are best suited for bigger rooms as they take up a lot of space.
Computer Desk
These desks gained a lot of popularity in the early 2000s. They come with a specific space for your keyboard, CPU, monitor, mousepad etc. In case you are still using those old computers, they are perfect, as they have designated space for everything hence nothing is haphazardly placed. You can still find these types of desks in schools and some corporate offices.
Adjustable Desks
These desks have recently gained popularity. Being in a compact space, there is not much possibility of having a separate study desk and work desk for both the child and the parent. Having an adjustable desk solves this problem. You can adjust the height according to the needs of the person.
Writing-cum-laptop Desks
Writing-cum-laptop desks are the need of the hour. They are versatile pieces of furniture that can be used for both writing and computing. Many modern designs come with a laptop pad that can be pulled out desk and adjusted to the level where you want your laptop to be placed. They are convenient to use and prevent unnecessary neck injuries.
L-shaped/ U-shaped Desks
If you have ample space, go for L-shaped/U-shaped desks. They can be easily customized as per the size of the room. L-shaped/U-shaped desk provides extra storage space and is great if more than one person is working at the same time.

Corner Desk
They are best suited for a room where the space is limited or there is a need for greater privacy. As the name suggests, corner desks are designed for the corners. They are generally customized by taking exact measurements of the room. However, there are many ready-made corner tables/desks available in the market, we do suggest not buying anything impulsively. Take proper measurements. If you buy a corner table that is too big or too small, it will not fit the space. For corner tables to work, they should be of proper measurement.
Wall-Mounted Desk
Wall-mounted desks are perfect for small apartment spaces. All you need to do is pull the wall-mounted table down and your instant workspace is ready. People are often worried about the durability of wall-mounted desks, but with the latest designs and durable materials, it is not a concern anymore.

Standing Desk
Software Engineers or lawyers don’t have a utility for this type of table/desk. But teachers who are standing most of the time to take a class have immense utility for these types of desks. These are generally of adjustable height and have enough space to place a laptop, projector or any other material so desired. They are also very popular among cooking enthusiasts, as most of their work is also done standing up.
Executive Desk
These are the statement desks. Who says you can’t work in style? Mostly made of teak wood, these desks are bulky and need a lot of space. But if you are in a position of authority and want to make it clear that you are the boss, go for an executive desk. These generally have compartments on the sides to organize your material and a huge tabletop to work on. Needless to say, they are best suited for huge spaces.
