Computer Desk Plans (104)
The most common form of the computer desk is a variant of the ergonomic desk, having an adjustable keyboard tray and sufficient desktop space for handwriting. Provisions for a monitor shelf and holes for routing cables are integrated in the design, making it easier to connect the computer components together. Space is provided for a keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer and speakers. The typical armoire desk is usually sold with these features and better cubicle desk designs include holes, trays and shelves for computer systems.
There is a seemingly endless variety of computer desk shapes and forms. Large multi-student computer desks configured in rows are designed to house dozens of computer systems in novel ways while also facilitating wiring, general maintenance, theft prevention and vandalism reduction. Small rolling lectern desks or computer carts with tiny desktops provide just enough room for a laptop computer and a mouse pad. Computer desks are typically mass-produced and require some self-assembly. Local crafts persons can build desks to order or produce unique designs.
The computer itself is normally separate from the desk. The desk is designed generically to hold a typically sized computer, monitor and accessories. Cabling must be carefully routed through the channels and access openings provided by the desk design. A few computers are built within a desk made specially for them, like the British iDesk. The computer is not removable and cannot be separated from the desk. Office of the future proposed other integrated designs.
A rolling computer table configuration offers mobility and improved access in situations where a desk is not convenient. Gyratory computer tables can be used over a bed. Modular computer tables separate user interface elements from the computing and network connection, allowing more placement flexibility. The modules are connected via wireless technology.
