Nice writing desk for use as Computer desk (depth > 60cm)?

Maurice Tiberius

Hi all,


I want to buy a new desk for the living room that I will use as a computer table. Unfortunately, it seems that most desks are either the classic and good looking writing desks (but not deep enough for a monitor and keyboard plus arm space) or the ugly but functional computer desks (as in: MDF board with steel legs).


I would like to have something that looks like a nice writing desk, but is >60cm deep and not too wide (max 120cm?) to fit my space ideally. I would appreciate as well if the price is a good bit under 500 pounds.


To give you some ideas of what I have in mind.


Absolutely love the look of this one, but only 50cm deep:

Nearly perfect, but a bit too wide:

I did like the look of this one, but reviews are quite bad, especially regarding the quality and the misplaced bar in the foot space:

A bit plain and unfortunately with 60cm depth painfully at the limit:

Does anyone have an idea of perhaps recommendations about good online shops that deliver within the UK?


Many thanks, looking forward to your suggestions!
