When the time comes to start looking around for a desk, you will need to make a decision regarding materials.

Desks come in all shapes,Desk Wood Options. Articles sizes, and materials these days, and since you are the boss, it’s all down to you. Regarding wood, you will basically choose between natural solid wood, or a type of engineered wood, basically made of wood parts and composites. So let’s review to the two, and see what the options are regarding choices of woods for your future desk. It really comes down to elegance. In my opinion, solid wood offers the most elegance, engineered products offer the most is mod shapes, colors and materials. Executive desks are created to be made of wood. Solid wood has always been a trademark of the executive, especially at the office. I’m talking about heavy, large, strong and functional desks built to survive a hurricane.

Such a desk makes it quite clears who you are, what you are, and often garner compliments for their appearance, size, and overall beauty. As for shape, oval and rectangular are the usual design. Yes you will drop some coin for such a desk. These beasts of beauty are not cheap. Yet do not forget what you are paying for. Solid hunks of wood. Rugged sturdy construction. Luxury and comfort as well as usability. Many are bought just once, and with the owner until retirement, and often beyond. Cheaper desks many times need to be replaced eventually. These days great deals can be had online, especially if you are willing to accept products made outside the USA. There are also websites such as overstock dotcom that may have a true steal available to you.

As i mentioned earlier, it’s about the level of elegance required, but if you need less of that, and a better deal on price, engineered wood has come a long way in what it has to offer. These items are often made of very heavy duty composite particle board sections. Strong, thick slabs that are sturdy and able to take the brunt of everyday use. Even though they can get quite heavy, they are easy to take apart and much more portable if moving is in the future plans. Also much more is available in options regarding colors, and finishes, and textures. If you are in a mod environment, maybe your desk should make a mod statement. If you are a younger company owner, and say the business is graphics, you may desire a more artistic appearance and shape of a desk that represents art and modernity. It’s up to you. Be who you are. Anyone checking out your office will understand what your desk is and what it has to say.

Lastly i want to touch on glass for a moment. Glass is what i say is ultra modern. Can be colored any color these days, and plenty of people are going glass with desks. Again just look into it, and i hope whatever you decide, you will love your new desk.
