The Arthur's sit-stand desk
Arthur’s Desk : a wooden sit-stand desk combining ergonomics and elegance.
Comfort at work, whether in an office or at home, plays a key role in both physical and mental well-being. A well-designed workspace starts with the right furniture, which promotes concentration and ensures good posture and long-term health.
The solid wood top brings warmth and character, while the height-adjustable system allows you to alternate easily between sitting and standing throughout the day.
Designed for modern professionals, this sit-stand desk promotes better posture, reduces strain, and encourages movement. The combination of durable materials, refined design, and smooth adjustability makes it a reliable and stylish solution for everyday use.
This desk offers a balanced approach to wellness and performance, creating a workspace that feels both efficient and inspiring.
One of the main advantages of this sit-stand desk is its ergonomic design. Created to meet the growing demand for comfort and workplace wellness, it adapts easily to different body types and working styles.
Thanks to its electric adjustment system, the desk moves smoothly from sitting to standing, promoting better posture, focus, and overall well-being. The height ranges from 62 cm to 127 cm and can be fine-tuned centimetre by centimetre using a digital control panel.
This flexibility helps reduce joint pressure, eye strain, and muscle fatigue while supporting productivity throughout the day. The desktop can be adjusted effortlessly to suit various activities, whether writing, drawing, or video conferencing.
The wooden sit-stand desk features a solid wood work surface measuring 150 x 70 cm. The high-quality wood adds both durability and aesthetic appeal, bringing warmth and elegance to any workspace while remaining strong and long-lasting. A well-crafted wooden desktop maintains its strength and natural charm over time.
This eco-friendly, renewable material fits seamlessly into professional or home environments, adding a calming, natural touch.
In terms of comfort, the desk stands out for its stability and refined finish. Rounded corners, a smooth surface, and a sturdy structure make daily use a pleasure. Paired with an ergonomic chair or an anti-fatigue mat, it becomes a true ally for creating a healthy, functional, and harmonious workspace.
Arthur’s desk is as much a work tool as it is an aesthetic element that enhances the overall quality of a room.
Staying true to its commitment to well-being and space optimisation, the wooden sit-stand desk features three drawers mounted beneath the tabletop, providing practical storage for pens, notebooks, and other accessories. These compartments keep items organised and within easy reach while maintaining a clear work surface.
This design results in a tidy, clutter-free workspace that enhances focus and promotes a calm, productive environment.
Side drawers measure 62 x 37 x 49 cm internally, while the central drawer offers 62 x 56 x 49 cm. Crafted from solid beech for the fronts and frames, with white-lacquered plywood backs, the drawers combine durability and quality.
An uncluttered desk reduces distractions, supports mental clarity, and makes daily work more enjoyable.
Made of steel, the frame supports up to 288 lbs (130 kg) while maintaining stability. Its height adjusts between 24.6 and 50.8 inches (62.5–129 cm), allowing precise positioning with centimeter-level accuracy using a digital control panel. The panel can be installed on either side to suit the user.
A memory function stores up to four preferred height positions, and a child lock can be activated on the panel for added safety.
Covered by a 5-year warranty, the frame ensures long-term reliability and peace of mind for your wooden sit-stand desk.

The Sit-Stand Desk: Why Choose the Arthur Desk?
A family creation!
This desk was inspired by Arthur, who spent long hours working from home at a regular table. Like many of us, Arthur needed a comfortable workspace — but also something beautiful, since the desk would be placed in the living area.
Stepping away from our usual designs, Martial asked Arthur exactly what he wanted and why this type of desk mattered to him.
1. Health: A Parent’s First Concern
First and foremost, it’s good for your health. Sitting all day isn’t natural for the human body. Numerous studies show that prolonged sedentary behavior increases the risk of back pain, fatigue, and even cardiovascular disease.
A sit-stand desk encourages posture changes, which boost circulation, strengthen core muscles, and reduce tension in the back and shoulders. Alternating between sitting and standing — even every 30 minutes — can make a real difference.
2. Focus and Productivity
Standing also helps with concentration and productivity. When you stand, your brain becomes more alert. You often feel more engaged and energetic. Arthur noticed this himself: “When I stand up for a bit, I get new ideas!” Changing posture breaks the routine and stimulates creative thinking.
3. Ergonomics
From an ergonomic point of view, the sit-stand desk adapts to every moment of the day. With its easy height adjustments, you can always find the position that suits you best. You learn to listen to your body, take smart breaks, and build a healthier daily rhythm. It’s true made-to-measure comfort.
4. Aesthetic Appeal
Wood brings a timeless, natural warmth to any workspace. Its unique grain and varied tones create a calming atmosphere that enhances focus. Beyond its elegance, wood blends seamlessly into any interior — from minimalist modern to cozy rustic. A wooden desk isn’t just functional; it becomes a true piece of lasting, living décor.
5. Sustainability
And finally, we can’t ignore the ecological and economic benefits. There’s less need to buy extra accessories to ease back pain or to replace your chair every couple of years. Built with durable materials, a sit-stand desk is an investment — but one that pays off over time.
That’s why this “funny” desk that goes up and down is becoming increasingly popular — at home and in the office.
In Conclusion
The sit-stand desk isn’t just a trendy piece of furniture. It’s a mindset — a way to improve our well-being, productivity, and even family life.
Thank you, Arthur, for the great idea!
