The two-tone finish is what stops this desk looking like office-issue furniture. A dark brown woodgrain top over a charcoal grey body gives it depth, and the front panel carries three horizontal gold accent strips framed by vertical slat detailing — the kind of finishing that matters when the desk faces into a room rather than a wall. At 1.4 metres it is the practical size for a home office or a manager's workspace: room for a monitor, a laptop and working papers without dominating the room. The built-in power grommet routes cables down through the desktop instead of over the back edge. Model XS-9, available assembled or flat-packed.

Buying guide
1.4m is the size most home offices should be looking at: wide enough for a monitor plus a laptop side by side, narrow enough to fit a spare bedroom without taking the room over. Allow about 1m of clear space behind for the chair. Decide which side your power and devices sit on before assembly so the grommet ends up where the cables are. Two-tone desks sit best against plain walls where the contrast reads clearly. Wipe with a slightly damp cloth rather than sprays, which can mark gold-tone trim. Tighten fixings after a month if you assemble it yourself.
How it compares
Against a 2m executive desk, this fits a home office comfortably and costs less; against a small computer table, it gives you genuine working space. Against an L-shaped desk, it takes less floor area but offers no side return, so plan separate storage.
Frequently asked questions
Is 1.4m enough for two screens?
It comfortably takes a monitor and a laptop side by side. For two large monitors plus paperwork, a 1.6m or 2m desk gives more room.
What does the power grommet do?
It routes cables down through the desktop rather than over the back edge, which keeps the desk tidy where it faces into a room.
How much space do I need behind it?
About 1 metre of clear floor so the chair can move back freely without hitting a wall or cupboard.
