Would you love cars so much that you want everything around you looking like Corvette cars? We have heard of furniture styled after soccer, automobiles, and sometimes fashioned out of airplane parts too. But CarCrazyDesks decided to bring in some out of the box workstations that would add zing to your otherwise boring looking workspace.
It has a BBQ Vette C5 barbeque grill too, besides a liquor cabinet that is refrigerated, liquor bar and a billiards table to help pep up your party scene at the office.
The superbly designed C5 Corvette Desk has the showstopper feel, for its bells and whistles, work lights, tail light lens of superior quality, handmade billet aluminium engraved knobs and high grade wood design that is custom made with your choice of wood. The glass which can be etched with your company logo is a signature ownership piece.
All the same, the pricing goes hand in glove with the quality too. You need to shell out not less than $ 1,400 to start with, for a steel frame design. The refrigerated liquor cabinet you can take home for $ 2,100. The desk will cost you $ 1,900. So go satiate the car lover in you.

To just consider women to be in love with gold would be a sheer mis-belief. As a matter of fact, men are as much fond of the yellow stuff. Just take a look at the number of sales and male jewelry types available in the market and you will know what we are talking about. The El Casco’s product line is built around this very fact.
The brand has created a stunning range of all sorts of desk stationary like stapler, paper weight, stapling pliers, paper punch, pencil sharpener, letter opener, glasses holder just to name a few. All these items have been created with gun making precision and have been coated with 23 carat shiny yellow gold. And they come sitting pretty in attractive boxes with the company logo on to in case you want to gift them to somebody.

The low and constant flow of heat is enough to make your legs sweat. Well, this is a regular problem with laptop users because laptops have a tendency of generating a lot of heat, which makes it a little unpopular choice health wise when you are on the go.
Surprisingly, not many geniuses thought of attending to this common problem in a way that impressed the computer whizkids. Quite a few portable, folding lap desks came and went without stirring up anything. After all, the laptop still gets heated up. So, Sanwa thougt of developing a lap desk with notebook computer cooling fan.

Armani Casa, house of furnishings, launched over ten years ago and have remained a strong opponent amongst luxury furniture sellers. The world may be crushing under the weight of the recession but this hasn’t had much of an effect in the luxurious world of fashionable furniture.
Although the demand for luxury furniture items had experienced something of a slump over the past year or so, Armani Casa is still going strong and when it comes to haute couture furniture, who better to buy from than Armani Casa? Armani Casa recently launched a new line of furniture and furnishing fabrics which made their appearance at the Salone del Mobile. Amongst these was a desk that drew much attention: plated in 24 karat gold, the Giorgio Armani desk is worth $38,500. Simplistic in every way from design to functionality, the only highlight of the desk is its gold surface.

Who could possibly ever forget, Wall-E, the sweet little robot that was left behind on Earth when it became a massive landfill? Even though his lady love Eve was faster, shinier and a whole lot better technically and as a robot, it was Wall-E that was the star of the movie.
It appears that Wall-E didn’t just inspire geeks to ask out beautiful girls but even inspired designers to create cooler furniture. Fred Baier doesn’t say so but his Dual Quad Desk does look strangely like Wall-E. The desk has been designed with three different looks though each has a striking resemblance to the other. According to the designer, the desk in pale flesh colour with the haunting blue eyes is the baddie, so perhaps the one in dark charcoal grey must be the angelic version of these. The desks were made for a private collection in UK and US.

We were wondering that it’s high time someone came up with a cool method to allow effective use of a laptop in the comfort of one’s bed without undue ergonomic stress. Better known as available versions like Laptop Laidback, Laptop Wizard or Lapdawg X4, this set up of adjustable trays lets you enjoy some reclined computing.
Like we mentioned, the Lapdawg X4 (yeah, we like this one the best and the coolest) comes with support trays that can easily be adjusted to achieve the right angle and height for convenient laptop handling. So much so that it even lets you position your arms with elbows at right angles with support from the bed or sofa surface that Lapdawg is propped on to. I think we all will agree that none can work all day in that position but it definitely will be comfortable for a few several hours.

Having everything you desire at your desk as you sit down to work is nearly impossible. It seems your desk can never accommodate all the files and tidbits that you need in its many drawers and when it does then the desk ends up being so huge it takes up most of the space in your office.
The Ci Desk is a compact version of a multi-featured desk structured in multiple layers that can easily be pulled out when needed and tucked back in when not in use. The design of the Ci Desk is extremely practical and works as the most efficient work desk you could possibly ask for. The three-wheeled cart-desk is mobile and can easily be rolled off to the desired location so that if you suddenly feel like working out on the porch, it can be arranged without any hassle. Designed by Creative Industrial Objects, the Ci Desk offers specially designed space for almost every gadget you would need to use at work. The desk has a pull-out drawer for your laptop, with its own mouse pad.

We have just the thing for you race car lovers to take home with you. A real Ferrari F40 Office Desk! And we thought the Luna Desk by Pininfarina was the ultimate desk. But trust us, one look at the Ferrari F40 Office Desk, and you will know what we are talking about.
Based on a minimalist sense of pattern, the Ferrari desk features an aluminium frame painted by Rosso Corsa in the trademark Ferrari red, that is held up by carbon fiber support rails and a floating glass top. This top glass flaunts a center mounted wire acces hole which is the actual dash vent from a Ferrari F40. To complete the race car effect, the maker has also provided a Belkin hardwired surge protector with LED status indicators. You will find the on/off switch just below the glass to the frame.
