Office desks help

immiketoo · 01-09-2011, 01:12 PM

Does anyone have any good ideas for a cool office desk? I am in the process of setting up a home office and I want something modernish and relatively clean looking. I looked at racingdesks and office depot, but I can't find anything distinctive.

What do you guys have?

I've always liked Z-Line's stuff...

Yeah I think Z line is pretty cool. Of course there are other brands out there and they have things ranging from a few hundreds for thousands. First decide if you want glass (modern) or wood (elegant and modern). Though I have some Z-line glass desks, I'd get wood if I had the room and the budget for it.

Price range?

I'd spend up to a G note if it was really awesome. I saw Z-line and found a few winners there. I like the glass idea and I found this... Awesome, but $1600.00

Room and Board.
West Elm.

I have an IKEA MIKAEL, it looks nice, but the quality is shit. Then again it was only $50. Unfortunately they don't make it anymore

I love just having a huge glass table with some storage off to the side.
