A functional and unique double desk

When designing a home office, various requirements and wishes often arise. Jeroen has tackled this challenge perfectly with his self-made oak double desk for two people. The desk is not only practical for work but also offers a spot for the furry four-legged friend thanks to the integrated scratching post.

The design and the construction

The desk is carefully designed with custom-cut Timberboard Beech C/C, supplied by OPMAATZAGEN.nl. The warm tones of the oak wood give it a natural and elegant look. The desk is conveniently placed by the window, allowing plenty of natural light to fall on it, ideal for long workdays. The clever design with the scratching post as a support gives this desk a unique twist. The scratching post is wrapped in rope, which is durable and attractive to any cat.

Perfect sizing

Jeroen had the freedom to determine the dimensions according to his own wishes, ensuring the desk fits perfectly into the available space. This demonstrates the benefits of custom work, both in terms of functionality and aesthetics. Additionally, the angular shape makes the desk ideal for an efficient layout.

Stylish minimalism with functionality

This desk exudes a minimalist atmosphere with a warm, homey feel. The use of Timberboard Beech C/C panels for the side panels adds an extra layer of quality. The simple lines and natural materials create a calm, inspiring work environment.

Why Timberboard Beech C/C ?

Timberboard Beech C/C is a popular choice due to its durability and aesthetic appeal. The wood is not only strong but also retains its beauty over time. Additionally, it has a versatile appearance that fits perfectly in both modern and classic interiors.

Delivery

General experience

Wide selection of different wood types/thicknesses/sizes. The wood itself is also very solid. Delivery was slightly delayed; the transporter did not have the proper equipment to unload the material. As a result, the delivery was delayed by a week.
