As someone who's spent my entire career working in an office, the whole WFH life always seemed like a luxury. This past year, I've been lucky enough to do my job from home, and it brings the perks of saving money on transportation and wearing my sweatpants all day. It has also brought on the challenge of needing a full-time work space in my home. I live in a small apartment and am very picky about decorating and keeping it as minimal as possible [1]. Adding an eyesore of a desk wasn't high on my priority list. I lasted as long as I could hunched over on my laptop on the sofa and kitchen table, but within months I decided I had to give it up for my back's sake and get a proper work space.
As I started shopping, I realised my requirement list was pretty extensive. I wanted something stylish, comfortable, and not too big or too small, and, ideally, I wanted a sit-stand desk. Is that too much to ask for? Wanting one with a standing option immediately narrowed my search options, and without a doubt, the Floyd x Fully Standing Desk [2] ($865) is the best such desk the market right now.
I have to start off by saying that the price tag is admittedly high. But as someone who invests in brands I love and quality I know will last me for years to come, it really takes the edge off clicking "buy." This isn't my first piece of Floyd furniture. I'm a long-time fan of the brand's sit-stand stool [3] from Ikea, which is also adjustable. The combination of the two not only looks good, but helps me sit better.
If you're working from home and need a serious upgrade, this is a great choice, especially if you're looking for something functional and stylish. The desk comes in six different options, including three wood finishes and the choice of black or white legs. Keep reading to shop some of its most popular options.
Floyd x Fully Standing Desk in Birch and White
I have the Floyd x Fully Standing Desk [5] ($865) with its classic birch desktop and white legs. The minimal designs fits perfectly into my neutral-coloured space.
Floyd x Fully Standing Desk in Walnut and Black
If you're into darker woods, then the Floyd x Fully Standing Desk [6] ($895) with a walnut desktop and black legs is a great choice. You can also choose it with white legs [7].
Floyd x Fully Standing Desk in Fog and White
I spent a lot of time going back and forth on colours, and the Floyd x Fully Standing Desk [8] ($865) with the Fog desktop and white legs was my second choice. I absolutely love the grey finish. It looks so chic.
