How to design your own desk

Looking for a new desk but can’t find your perfect fit? Build your own by combining your favourite tabletop, legs, trestles or other element such as a drawer unit – most combinations are possible and the result is a custom desk that really suits you.

A white LAGKAPTEN tabletop on birch MITTBACK trestles, with a STIGBYGEL swivel chair and art supplies on the desk.

Step 1: Choose your table top

Choose between table tops in different sizes and shapes. In solid wood, tempered glass and more finishes. There are four lengths to choose from; 100 cm, 120 cm, 140 cm or 200 cm.
