These IKEA Adjustable Standing Desk Designs Can Also Be Sat At

This adjustable standing desk from IKEA also doubles as a regular desk you can sit at. Replacing the popular GALANT series, the BEKANT professional series has a number of options with a sit/stand format.

The BEKANT desks come in a variety of different styles and sizes. The adjustable standing desk can be situated to meet an individual's height and needs. They also easily group together in an open office setting. Two models include screens for added privacy (they also double as notice boards). For a fully coordinated look, there is also a line of matching BEKANT storage available from IKEA.

Designed by Karl Malmvall and Eva Lilja Lowenhielm, the furniture intends to have flexible combinations that, as PSFK puts it, "encourage collaborations, meetings and creativity."
