Case Study: Custom L-Shape Desk for Sara in Brooklyn, NY

A tailored plywood desk that turns work into pleasure.

Client: Sara, Brooklyn, New York (USA)
Product: Custom L-shape desk (based on Desk 11 with drawers and shelves)
Finish: Walnut
Function: Home office workstation
Delivery: Flat-packed, shipped via FedEx

The Challenge

Sara was looking for a durable, elegant corner desk that could support a dual-monitor setup and blend harmoniously with her Brooklyn apartment. She needed something that was:

Comfortable for daily work
Visually clean and unique
Delivered internationally with minimal fuss

The Solution

We proposed a modified version of our L-Shape Desk 11, which features an airy frame and thoughtful ergonomics. Made from premium plywood with a transparent finish, the piece emphasized both form and function.

Despite international shipping delays caused by the carrier, Sara’s feedback reflected the strength of the design and customer service:

“This desk was worth the wait. Gorgeous, unique, and extremely comfortable to work on. Plus, the seller was extremely responsive when the shipper had delays and communication issues (not the seller's fault). I love how it turned out.”
