Did you know that changing your desk also changes the way you work? Or that if you spend a day at someone else’s desk changes your workflow? The environment you work in affects you in ways you don’t even realize. In other words, if you have a really cool desk with cool features then the task you’re working on and your job in general will become a lot more pleasant and enjoyable. But let’s exemplify this concept and take a look at some really cool desks.
Ready to see something really cool? This is a desk that’s basically placed in a sand box. It lets you work barefooted and feel the sand between your toes. It’s like being at the beach without even leaving your home office. Of course, there’s the little problem of dragging sand sand all over the place when you leave the sandbox but we’ll let you deal with that on your own.
The reason why this sliding desktop table by Manuel Saez is so interesting is because it’s so sleek, simple and practical and it has that cool hidden compartment where you can store and hide your laptop, phone and other valuables.
This looks like an old table with a metal base and a wooden top but that little handle at the center looks a little out of place. Actually, if you use it to lift up the back half of the table top you’ll understand why it’s there in the first place. This is actually a desk with hidden storage compartments and a lamp hidden underneath.{found on manoteca}.

How would you like to work and work out at the same time? It’s what TrekDesk is for. Although the concept is interesting, I’m not sure this is such a practical idea. Good luck typing on that thing, not to mention that you’d get tired pretty fast and then you’ll want to sit down and take your laptop with you.Available for $480.
This is a somewhat similar design. It’s the Sit-to-Walkstation Desk Treadmill and it allows you to burn some calories while working. Some might actually find it useful.
The Strates Desk has an innovative design with the base made of neatly stacked shelves. There’s not much room for private items with this design but it definitely looks awesome and lets you keep all your things within reach.{found on fancy}.
Don’t have room for a home office or a desk in your home? Make it part of the staircase. This innovative design by Mieke Meijer contains a desk, storage and a staircase combined in two sections. It’s definitely unusual but it’s also super creative and fun.
The idea desk would be space saving and would also look really cool. This desk does both those things. It has a super sleek and unique design and it occupies very little floor space. Consider such a unique design if you have a small home or if you’re a fan of minimalism.{found on mymodernmet}.

For a little bit of steampunk style, try this desk. This is the Victorian Organ command Desk made from bits and pieces of Victorian detritus including the carcass of a 19th century pump organ. It’s definitely unique and eye-catching and definitely not for everyone.

If minimalism is your style, then you’ll love the/order writing desk. It’s super sleek, super simple and made of clear glass. It’s produced from a single glass sheet through a glass bending process.
