standing desks

Vertical office furniture

Standing desks are work surfaces designed to be used while standing rather than sitting.

They emerged as a response to health concerns about prolonged sitting, with proponents claiming benefits for posture, energy, and metabolism.

Many modern standing desks are adjustable, allowing users to alternate between sitting and standing throughout the day.

I switched to a standing desk after my back started bothering me.
