Floating Top Desks Imbue Whimsy and Function
Come fly away with us — the mid-century floating desk brings playfulness and a sense of form over function that is, perhaps, missing from today’s floating top desk selection. A floating top desk might actually be a misnomer, as the floating desk actually does more folding than it does floating. (A floating wood desk is often mounted, in part, on the wall, and pulled down when in use.) Truly, it is a type of furniture that has been iterated on countless times by furniture-making giants like G.V. Gasvig, Kai Kristiansen, Gunnar Nelson, Peter Lovig Nielsen, and other designers and design brands, ever reaching deeper for more utility, more function, and more style in each evolution of the mid-century modern floating top desk.
A Selection of Eye-Catching Floating Desks
Often associated with the mid-century modern design movement, materials vary, though Danish teak, rosewood, rattan, walnut, mahogany, and even glass are often primary components of many of the desks available. Browse our carefully assembled array of vintage and Danish modern floating desk options to find the perfectly appointed piece for your office space.
