A school desk: how to choose two weeks before term starts
Two weeks are left before the school year begins. This section gathers the desks people buy for a child: compact models for a small room, desks with a pedestal and models with shelving right above the top.
Desks by MEBLE WJ, FORES HABITAT, HELVETIA, LASKI and Israeli makers, including the FRIBO and ANGEL youth collections. A school chair with height adjustment can be picked at the same time. Corner, folding and gaming models sit in Computer desks.
What matters most in a child desk is not the design but the height of the top relative to the child. The elbows should rest on the desk without lifting the shoulders, and the feet should reach the floor. That is why desk and chair are chosen together: a fixed desk height is compensated by an adjustable chair, which costs less than replacing the desk every two years.
Which desk for which room
| Type | Models | When to choose it |
|---|---|---|
| With a pedestal | TWENTY, NOVI, ADA | Drawers right at hand, so no separate chest is needed for textbooks. |
| With shelving above | WS DOUBLE, DUO, DUPLO | Books stand above the top instead of taking up the working surface. |
| With drawers in the top | ATHENA, STYLUS, TOUCH | Notebooks and small items are put away and the desk stays clear. |
| From a youth collection | FRIBO, ANGEL | Matches the bed and wardrobe of the same series, so the room looks put together. |
| Compact | NOA, MASSTER, wall-hung FANO | For a small room or a second work point in the house. |
What to buy with the desk
- a school chair with height adjustment;
- a bookcase or shelving unit for textbooks;
- a desk lamp and an organiser in Interior items.
