Plan the desk around its daily use
Start with the work each person needs to do at the desk. A 140 cm width may suit a more compact workstation, while the 160, 180 and 200 cm options provide progressively wider work surfaces. Measure the intended location and account for circulation space, nearby furniture and any equipment that will remain on the desk. Width alone does not determine fit, so consider the room layout as well as the user’s working habits.
For a straightforward individual workstation, compare the two designs by their features rather than assuming they are interchangeable. The modular desk has a continuous-leg steel base and is compatible with a cable tray, which can be useful when planning cable management. A tray is not included. The right-side pedestal model has a central cut-out and a pedestal on the right; check that this arrangement suits the intended position and user before selecting it.
Choose finishes and materials
Both desks have rectangular melamine tops. Available surface colors include beige, black, brown, grey, white and wood, while base colors include black, red, silver and white. Coordinate the top and base with the wider office palette, or use contrast to define a workstation area. When choosing a finish, also consider how it will look alongside existing desks and storage.
Check the details before selecting
Confirm the width, surface color and base color needed for each workstation, then review the individual model information for its design details. In particular, check whether the right-side pedestal position works with the room layout, or whether the modular desk’s cable-tray compatibility is more relevant. Since these desks are not adjustable, make sure a fixed-height desk is appropriate for the intended setup.
JG Open Systems desks are available through Myntwork on a monthly lease. Compare the models and finish options against your workspace plan, and check the product details for the configuration you are considering. The collection carries a two-year warranty.
