Purpose |
Build an industrial looking desk for a new home office. |
Features |
One thing that stands out on this desk is the attention to detail. The computer stand and cable management really make this desk look great. The use of the wood paneling pulls the room together and also hides the electronic clutter. Credit to Brandon on a well executed design. |
Building Tips |
Hiding cables can really enhance the aesthetic quality of a desk. Brandon wen so far as to attach the power strip to the inside of the front panel. This ensures that only one or two cables will be visible on the floor. Lifting the desktop unit off the floor does a couple of things. It makes the desk look nicer, that's a fact. It will also help the computer stay cooler and cleaner. Keeping it off the floor helps cut down on the amount of dust that builds up inside the computer. |
