How to fit an electric desk into a minimalist interior?

If you want to use an electric desk in a minimalist interior, you don't have to do too much thinking. Just choose the right model. 

 

1. Choose a simple design


The electric desk you place in a room needs to fit in visually. So choose a model with a minimalist design, straight lines and few ornaments. If you avoid unnecessary ornaments and elements, you will have no problem fitting it into a minimalist-style interior. Also consider its size, so that an overly large top combined with a massive frame does not overwhelm the lightness and freedom of the room. 

2.  Choose neutral colours


The minimalist style is characterised by neutral colours such as white, black, grey, beige or brown. Cool shades predominate, which are designed to optically enlarge the space. Definitely avoid bright and flashy colours. This will help you easily maintain visual harmony throughout the room. 

3.  Keep your worktop minimalist


Don't cluster too many items on your desk. Limit yourself to a pen stand, a lamp and a simple organiser. An aesthetically pleasing desk is a minimalist desk. If you have more items you would like to keep within easy reach, be sure to choose a desk with a drawer or cupboard. You can also invest in a pedestal to place under or around the burlap. 
 

4. Hide the cables


When choosing a desk, opt for a model that allows you to hide the cables. This will avoid unnecessary clutter on the tabletop and around the desk. A desk with a cable management system is a modern piece of furniture that will fit in well with a minimalist interior. Such a desk allows you to keep cables and wires off the floor and out of sight of people in the room.   
 

5. Opt for functionality


The piece of furniture you choose must be as functional as possible. Ensure the presence of features that, on the one hand, will be very useful and, on the other, will not disrupt the minimalist style of the interior. There are many possibilities, among them a desk with built-in wireless chargers, a memory for the position of the desk, an anti-collision system or the ability to control an app on your smartphone. With at least some of these, you will avoid the use of extra cables or devices that would only take up valuable space.
