Thonet S 285 5 Desk

Thonet S 285 5 Desk

The Thonet S 285 5 Schreibtisch Storage Units Desk is a straight desk for one person, distinguished by storage units on both sides of its rectangular worktop. Part of Thonet’s S 285 collection, it combines a chrome-finished metal frame with real wood veneer in a clear-lacquered beech finish, creating an individual workstation with storage built into its design.

Thonet Desk Design and Materials

The desk pairs a chrome-finished frame with a veneered top and clear-lacquered beech finish on the wood parts. This combination gives the piece a defined contrast between its reflective metal structure and warm wood surface, so it can suit a workspace where both functional furniture and considered materials matter.

Surface choices span neutral, wood-toned and more vivid color families, including beige, black, brown, white, grey, red, blue, green and yellow. The base is available in beige, grey, black, white or red, giving you options to coordinate the frame and worktop with the rest of your office furniture.

S 285 Desk Storage and Setup

Storage units on the left and right make this model different from a simple straight desk. The large storage bodies flank the work surface, keeping storage close to the user and giving the desk a substantial, integrated appearance rather than relying on separate units beside it.

The desk is designed for one person and has a fixed-height configuration, with no height adjustment. Its rectangular top provides a straightforward work surface, while its compatibility with a cable tray gives you the option of adding cable management; the tray is not included. The desk is not linkable, so it is intended as an individual workstation rather than one of several desks joined together.

Single-Person Workspace Fit

This Thonet S 285 desk suits an individual work area where built-in storage on both sides is useful and a straight, fixed-height setup meets the user’s needs. Its broad work surface and integrated storage make it a practical option for a professional office or a home office, while the range of surface and base colors offers flexibility when coordinating the surrounding space.

The desk comes with a two-year warranty and is identified as circular in the product information. Choose it when you want a one-person desk with a chrome-finished metal base, clear-lacquered beech veneer and storage bodies incorporated on both sides—while keeping in mind that height adjustment and an included cable tray are not part of the specification.
