The modular desk

5 followers

A beautiful, resizable and affordable desk system. Re-arrange and move workspaces easily and quickly. Super clean with integrated wiring, adjustable monitor stands, plug sockets, plant pots, pen & pencil pots and more. We've sold to some home users, but we're primarily targeted towards offices - we work great for startups and co-working spaces.

Duuude the website really shows this off. You gotta make a video to show people what it does. The stand alone pictures here don't do it justice!
Federico Jorge
@nickchuckwalter agreed! This launch needs a GIF or a video. The website could also have a section where you can play around and arrange your own desk for fun. The idea is great!
Jonathan Fren
@nickchuckwalter Thanks Nick! 😄Yeaaaa agree, video is on the todo list 😛

@jfren I'm sure there's a ton to do. Best of luck! Awesome product
Sebastian Marshall
@nickchuckwalter Seconded! It looks super cool when you dive in deeper.

Hey, I'm Jonathan! I've been working on this product for the past few months and thrilled to share it here :) We now have a few startups and individuals using de-sks, but we're still very new and I'd love any feedback or questions! :)
Eek Snider
It says affordable on the website, is this a joke?
Jonathan Fren
@kucukkanat Hey Eek! Our main target audience is companies / co-working spaces (ie more banks of desks than individual desks -- and that's where my background & experience lies) - and in that area we're pretty competitive / verging on cheap compared to competing desk systems. I'm told even for single desks our pricing is competitive, but I guess that's very relative -- it's certainly probably more than Ikea, but less than most designer desks 😄
Anthony Da Mota
That's an awesome idea. Is this an idea from you, or this is something that already exist? As I never saw a desk like this. Also, I'm noticing that's plywood; which is quite expensive even if it has a lot of advantages. Do you plan on making something more affordable for people - not companies? Thanks!
Jonathan Fren
@akdm_ Thanks Anthony! 😄 I had the idea after furnishing my co-working space and designing my own desks there, it's been lingering in my head for a few years. Current focus is very much on companies; I think even outside pricing our biggest USP's lay there... but who knows, it's still very young and getting lots of great feedback that's taking me in different directions. I'll follow where the need is! Defo want to look at different material options though.
Anthony Da Mota
@jfren Congrats on the idea then! Thanks for replying :)

Neat idea - I'm actually just looking at replacing the desk I've had for 20 years, which is a 3 part modular U-shape thing. It's big and cumbersome, and every time I move I have to find a place it fits in, or use half a desk, or something. That being said... my first thought when I look at your site is, "Those pieces do not look flush"
Jonathan Fren
@rossdcurrie Thanks 😄heheh, I know first-hand what that's like. Yeaaa - mentioned this in another comment below - but this has been & is a big feedback point. We've managed to massively reduce the issue of the gaps and levelling since our first versions [and the one that the site photography is based on] by tongue-and-grooving and improving our fixing system. But we're also looking at mitigating it by adding the option of wider slats of wood [ie 60cm+ wide] in the area[s] where one would mostly use paper/mice. We're also looking at potentially some form of blotter pad.

Impressive, could be my next desk!
Jonathan Fren
@francescod_ales Awesome! 😄
Joshua Pinter
This is really cool! But I can't stand the gaps between each board. I'd rather have one solid piece of walnut or something and sacrifice the modularity.
