drafting table
Tilted drawing desk
A drafting table is a large, flat work surface that tilts to various angles, designed for technical drawing, architectural plans, or artistic work.
The adjustable slope lets drafters work without hunching over, keeping the drawing surface perpendicular to their line of sight.
Though digital design has reduced their use, drafting tables remain common in architecture studios and art schools.
