office desk

Professional work table

An office desk is a table designed for work in professional settings, typically featuring a flat writing surface, drawers for storage, and space for a computer or other equipment.

Office desks range from simple utilitarian models to elaborate executive furniture meant to convey status: She cleared off her office desk before the meeting.

The term distinguishes workplace furniture from home desks or school desks.
