The L-shape is what makes a 1.6m desk work like a much larger one. The main surface takes your screen and keyboard; the side return holds the printer, files and everything you use without looking at β so the working surface stays clear. That return carries two lockable drawers, which matters in any office where documents, cheque books or personal items need to be secured rather than simply tidied away. The finish is a dark ebony striped top against a taupe and grey base, with a floating top, rounded corners and a geometric front panel. Available assembled or flat-packed in a box.

Buying guide
Decide which side the return should sit on before ordering β it is determined by the room, the door and your dominant hand, and getting it wrong means working around the desk rather than at it. L-shaped desks suit corners, but leave clearance so the chair can move between both surfaces without catching. Lockable drawers are worth using properly: keep one key on your person and one somewhere safe, since replacements are rarely available. Rounded corners are a genuine safety feature in a small office. Measure the doorway before choosing assembled delivery at this size.
How it compares
Against a straight desk, the L-shape gives you a second surface for equipment without buying a separate unit, and the drawers remove the need for a pedestal. Against a 2m straight desk, this fits a corner and suits a room where floor space is tight. For a shared office, lockable storage is the deciding factor.
