2. Innovative Use of Materials: Mid-century design took full advantage of advancements in material technology. From teak to brass and formica, a variety of materials were creatively combined in a single piece. Mid-century desks often feature a melange of such materials, bringing a unique and eclectic feel to the furniture piece.
3. Organic Influences: Designs from this era were heavily influenced by organic and geometric forms. This naturally inspired aesthetic can be seen in curved desk edges and inlays, making each desk a subtle nod to the beauty of nature.
4. Vibrant Color Schemes: While mid-century design does encompass a love for natural, warm wood tones, it equally embraces bold uses of color. Desks from this period might sport unusual, vibrant color schemes, anything from rich mustards to cool tones of blue and green.
5. Modest Size and Scale: Unlike the bulky furniture of previous eras, mid-century desks feel light and airy, designed with a modest size and scale that's apt for compact living spaces. They often feature thin legs and compact storage spaces, making them practical yet chic options for modern living.
The desk is a beautiful blend of exquisite craftsmanship and state-of-the-art ergonomics that stand out in its segment.

This high-end desk also charms with its rounded edges and stunning wood veneer-wrapped legs, a nostalgic nod towards the mid-century era. Adding a dash of convenience, the desk gives you the choice of opting for one or two felt-lined drawers or none at all, letting you tailor your storage requirements down to the T.

The Leatherwrap Sit-to-Stand Desk (2022), designed by BassamFellows for Geiger, delivers proven ergonomics, impeccable construction, premium details, and a look that’s worthy of the finest home or corner office.

The Airia Desk (2008) uses clever storage and visual cues to keep clutter out of your work area. The desktop’s slightly elevated back doubles as a shelf for a task lamp and accessories, while its center drawer - with its removable, cork-lined organizer tray - holds papers and mementos. A white laminate inset on the desk’s surface delineates work space and concentrates the user’s gaze. Integrated cord management means no unsightly tangle of cables, as they’re tucked in the body of the desk. This desk is made with 54% recycled content and was honored with a 2008 Good Design™ Award.
A customer favorite since its debut in 2010, the Line Collection features a geometric frame made out of precisely crafted oak or walnut. It's distinguished by its strong horizontal lines that reflect natural landscapes and lend a sense of restfulness and calm. On one side of the Line Desk (2020) are drawers and cubbies for office supplies and stationery. On the other side, a discreet panel opens to reveal a clever cable management system and space for power strips and wireless routers, along with a convenient cord escape. This desk is fully finished on all sides, allowing it to float anywhere within your office space. Working from his studio in Singapore, designer Nathan Yong designs thoughtful pieces that resonate with a quiet elegance, for which he credits the congestion of city living. “My work is a reflection of my yearning for nature in this concrete jungle,” he says.
