Call It A Desk Or A Workstation
The Desk, whether you call it by its given name or by the more modern workstation, it is a very important part of our lives. This is probably a more accurate statement than ever considering the lives that we live in the modern era. Today our work life and personal life are tied together more than ever before.
The type of workstation that a person uses is very personal for them. It has been said that a workstation is the embodiment of the soul of a person and makes a statement about their character. The development of the modern style makes things even more complicated. In the old days desk were simple and the choices were limited to a few styles, woods, maybe color and mostly size. The biggest concern was really how ornate the desk was. Choosing the best workstation for you can be a journey, let’s look at some of the most common styles of modern workstations.
Metal Choices
Metal based workstations are a common choice these days. Metal is a very sleek and modern material that can be used to create a wide variety of designs. With the right implementation of metal, there is not limit to the unique, stylish and sophisticated workstations that you can have. These are often paired with worktop surfaces that are glass or stone, sometimes even wood is used or a combination of theme all.
Stone Choices
When you hear about a stone desk you may at first think about Fred Flintstone and what height have in his home office. The truth is that starting in the mid 1960’s a renowned artist named Mike Pillar started making furniture designs that were different than anything else on the market at the time. Intended for small batch production and for a very sophisticated and exclusive crowd his furniture set a standard that still to this day has an impact on the industry. His use of stone was ground breaking and today the stone workstation is one that screams, “I AM UNIQUE”
Acrylic and Glass
The advent of modern technology has allowed for the creation of workstations that are made from acrylic materials, plastics and formed glass. These workstations allow literally for the sky to be the limit as far style and design. These workstations are able be incorporated into almost any environment, they look best in modern interiors however. They are very durable despite the fact that they are much lighter weight than their traditional material counterparts.
Artistic
Artistic workstations are available in a wide variety of materials and are generally one of a kind; they are an expression of the artist view of the world in the form of functional furniture. Just as with any kind of art, the price will be as varied as the workstation. If you are looking for a workstation that is truly special, a one of a kind artistic desk is perfect for you, but be aware that the search may be long and arduous. However, as they say the journey is the reward.
The truth is that the modern workstation has almost no boundaries, who is to say what is not a legitimate concept for a work surface in this day of mobile living and casual lifestyle. The desk will always be a primary component of our homes and offices, but what the workstation is will always continue to evolve.
It doesn’t matte what your taste is, the true beauty of the modern desk is that not only does it have a physical beauty that is outstanding but an intrinsic one as well in the fact that is can be something as expressive about you are the skin on your smart-phone or the pattern of your laptop sleeve.
