What to buy a desk?

A desk is, first of all, a workplace of a schoolboy or a person who often works at home. A workplace should be comfortable and functional. If we are talking about buying a table for a child, then it is necessary to pay attention to the comfort of this piece of furniture so that there is no threat to health.

There are several types of desks:

• A standard writing table is a tabletop with legs or wide supports. On such a table it will be convenient to place all the most necessary for work, there is enough space for a laptop, and if you take care of a niche for the system unit, you can arrange a computer.

• Computer.Different from the standard writing will be the presence of a sliding niche for the keyboard, a separate stand for the monitor and the system unit.

• The most popular and popular are the tables with cabinets, drawers and shelves. This is a universal model. It is convenient to store books, notebooks, folders, various school supplies, disks. Since the desks have long been replaced by a computer, an indispensable part of almost any of them is the keyboard drawer. Also in many models there is a special place under the monitor.

• Corner can be put in a small room in size: a nursery or a small living room. So the unused corner will be occupied, and the saved part of the room will be used by other necessary furniture. The corner of the table can be reserved for the computer monitor, and the angle under the table - for the system unit.

• Double. It is suitable if the family has two children, each of whom needs their own workplace or in the office for a couple of employees. The partition can be located to the side of each or front. Manufacturers in this regard provide a choice.

• A modular desk is a good option for an office.The design is laconic, is a tabletop on a metal frame, does not take up much space and is easy to assemble. Designed for working with documents, on a computer, for negotiations, for conferences.

• Transforming table - a modern model with an adjustable table top. You can change its height and slope. This allows you to comply with medical requirements for the inclination of the table while working in different directions. And the change in height makes it possible to use this piece of furniture for many years, since it is not necessary as the child grows to buy new tables.

• The problem of a small area of ​​the room can be solved by a folding table. The tabletop of this model can be folded down and pressed to the wall if it is not needed for work.

Try to choose a table in terms of its practicality. The tabletop must be of sufficient size to accommodate notebooks, books, organizer, computer, etc. on it.

Make sure you have extra shelves, drawers, and lockers. Make sure their depth is appropriate.It is desirable that all the shelves were located on one side. Consider whether you need special niches for the system unit, printer, monitor or laptop, space for speakers, a desk lamp. Everything should be in place. The one who works at the table should be, first of all, convenient and comfortable, everything should be arranged in the way that so as not to distract attentionotherwise work will not be productive.

Correctly pick up the chair. The back should be anatomically shaped to form a posture; height must be adjusted. It is better to refuse models with armrests as they negatively influence a bearing.

Before going to the furniture store you need to think carefully about some points. The table, first of all, should arrange in all respects the one who will use it constantly. These include color, size, shape, design. Although the size needs to be chosen taking into account the area of ​​the room, the choice of material will depend on financial possibilities, environmental friendliness and its user.

If the table is purchased in the office of a business person with a good income, you can stop the choice on valuable wood species.This will give a room presentable. For a child, buying furniture made of veneer does not make sense, since in any case, after some time the table top will lose its original appearance. It will be covered with traces of paint, markers, pens, compass scratches. And the money will already be spent.

Buying a table of the cheapest materials is also not recommended. It must withstand the weight of books, stationery, active student movements, exposure to water and other substances. From external damage should protect resistant coating, fasteners must be reliable.

In addition, furniture for children must meet safety requirements. The presence of toxic substances in its composition is undesirable, so you need to be careful when buying a plastic or chipboard table. They can emit such substances and have a pungent unpleasant smell, which does not always erode.

A table made of MDF will almost not be inferior to a wooden one by durability and environmental friendliness.The material is of good quality and high cost.

Glass models are very expensive and completely unsuitable for children in terms of safety. But they look pretty impressive. Popular combination of metal legs and glass countertops. Such a table is more suitable for those who rarely will work for it, since the characteristics of the material do not differ by acceptability for a long pastime behind it.

When buying, pay attention to the table fittings - door handles, drawer guides should be of high quality and reliability. More durable products will be made of steel alloys.

The size of a desk or computer desk can directly affect the health of its owner. If you pick the wrong height, back problems can begin. Especially it is worth paying attention to if the purchase is made for a child.

A large work desk is quite comfortable. You can fit everything you need on the tabletop. But when placing such a product must take into account the dimensions of the room. Even if the room is a small area, try not to get too narrow a table.Its operation will constantly deliver discomfort. It is better to overpay for a wide and take a little more space in the room than to suffer then while working at such a table. Too long, as a rule, are double tables, which means two jobs. This table is appropriate if the family has two children.

The height of the table must be chosen according to the height of its user. It is recommended to purchase a transforming table in order to adjust the height and select it for height. If there is no such possibility, you can buy a high table and an adjustable chair.

If the table is purchased for a child, do not be surprised with its irregular shape and size. Schoolchildren should be, above all, convenient and comfortable.

There are parameters that should be followed:

• length - not less than a meter;
• width - not less than 60 cm;
• leg position is 50x50 cm.

It is desirable that when choosing a desktop was present its future user. The so-called "fitting" will not be superfluous.

The color of the writing or computer desk is also of considerable importance. He should tune in to work, not distract from it.Therefore, you should abandon the bright, catchy colors.

It is better to opt for more restrained, natural shades: brown, milanese walnut, golden walnut, beech, light oak, bleached oak, etc. Of course, the color of the table should be combined with the overall design of the room.

The best option is a rectangular table without bends with non-sharp edges. This form does not violate the posture, does not distract attention, adjusts to the working mode. It will also fit into any interior.

If the student will work at the table, you can consider unusual design options, but do not overdo it. The child should like his workplace, so consider his desires, but at the same time try to steer in the right direction.

For a student, it is better to purchase a table with extensions, so that there is where to place books, discs, some folders, photographs, various accessories, etc. Extensions can be attached to the wall separately from the table, and can be its continuation.

It is possible to arrange the table in the nursery with the letter “G”.In this model, many shelves located along the wall towards the ceiling. This is unusual and practical. The place on the shelves will take useful things and stylish accessories.

You can find different varieties of such models. A table pressed against a wall can perform an additional function, for example, decorate this wall.

In modern designs, glossy furniture is popular. Fits into a minimalist style, modern, hi-tech. Reflective surface can also solve the issue of visual expansion of space. The color for this is more suitable white.

If the workplace is organized in the bedroom, it makes sense to think about a variant that saves space, since such rooms are usually small in size. You can choose an angular model with extensions, drawers, lockers. Use the maximum angle and part of the wall above the table to save space for other pieces of furniture.
