I was thinking just the other day that it was about time that I got myself a new desk, but it is not as easy as it would first sound, there are so many shapes, sizes and materials, it is an impossible job but a job that needs to be done.
Then by chance I came across this desk, its cool, functional, looks pretty modern and costs $7,000, its cruel world!
Features – The foam-molded seat swivels 180°, and is padded and luxuriously upholstered in leather, placing users 1 1/2′ from the base for comfortable, relaxed reclining while working. The workstation’s sturdy volkern plastic desktop unfolds and extends from the front hemisphere, supported by a hidden steel bracket; small items may be stored underneath the work surface. Requiring a mere 8 3/4′ sq. of floor space–roughly the size of a large ottoman–the 3 1/2′ L x 2 1/2′ W powder-coated aluminium platform supports the pod with two sturdy aluminium uprights that allow the pod to support up to 1,500 lbs. It moves silently on four double-casters equipped with soft rubber treads. Closed 3 3/4′ L x 2 1/2′ W x 3 1/2′ H; extended 4 1/2′ L x 2 1/2′ W x 3 1/2′ H. (70 lbs.) Priced at $7,000.
