They have been billed as the ultimate antidote to sitting in front of a screen all day at the office. But a study suggests standing #desks, which have soared in popularity in recent years, do not compensate for being inactive and may even increase the risk of conditions such as swollen veins and blood clots in the legs.
Dezeen Showroom: created by US brand Blu Dot, the Tabloid desk is designed to bring a pop of colour and a cosy feeling into any work environment.
"With Tabloid, we set out to design a desk with useful storage that could live comfortably both at home or in an office," said Blu Dot.
The Tabloid desk's Forbo linoleum top is an opportunity to add colour
The desk features a wood frame topped with Forbo linoleum, which Blu Dot chose to bring warmth and an opportunity for colour. The powder-coated steel legs are colour matched to the tabletop.
A wraparound gallery creates a feeling of cosiness and privacy for the user, while the slim steel legs make the piece look light and suspended in space.
A cable management space at the top of the desk hides power cords out of sight
There is substantial space for storage, including a covered cord management nook on the back edge of the tabletop, and two drawers with metal slides.
Tabloid is available in three colour combinations including a black tabletop with walnut wood veneer, a navy green tabletop with white oak veneer, and a putty grey tabletop with white oak veneer.
