# Sit-to-Stand Desktops The Elevate Desktops Let You Work Comfortably and Collaboratively By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2015-10-13 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sittostand References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/inmovement-elevate-sit-to-stand/39788/) & [inmovement](https://www.inmovement.com/shop/our-products/elevate-desktop-series) The Elevate range of sit-to-stand desktops, developed by InMovement, is designed to make you rethink the boundaries and functionality of sit-to-stand desktops. While such desktops ordinarily feature a very wide base with a hinged upper platform that can be raised or lowered depending on the user's preference, the Elevate range takes a different approach by replacing the wide base with just a single column or arm. The basic model in the Elevate range of [sit-to-stand offerings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-bean-standing-desk) is the DT1, designed for use with a [single laptop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosi). It has a single arm and a top platform measuring 61 x 35 cm that can be rotated 360 degrees, allowing for easy collaborative work. The Elevate DT4 meanwhile comes in single and dual monitor versions, has a bigger surface and can hold more weight. Sit-to-stand desktops are set to take over the modern workspace, and Elevate is leading the way with these thoughtful designs. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Collaborative Sit-to-stand Desktops:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop sit-to-stand desktops with rotating platforms to enhance collaborative work in the modern workspace. - **Single Column Sit-to-stand Desktops:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create sit-to-stand desktops with a single arm or column for a sleek, space-saving design. - **Multi-monitor Sit-to-stand Desktops:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design sit-to-stand desktops capable of supporting multiple monitors to meet the increasing demand for multitasking in the modern office. ### Where This Applies - **Office Furniture Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce innovative sit-to-stand desk designs to the office furniture industry. - **Technology Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced digital features for sit-to-stand desktops to meet the needs of tech-savvy professionals. - **Collaboration Solutions Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine sit-to-stand desktops with collaboration tools to offer integrated solutions for modern work environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Adjustable Laptop Desk Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sitstand-desk1.md) - [Floor-Sit Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uppeal-desk-lshaped.md) - [Ergonomic Standing Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergonomic-standing-desks.md) - [Motorized Cable-Hiding Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steno-sitandstand-work-desk.md) - [Gesture Control Smart Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-smartdesk-levitate.md) - [Adjustable Ergonomic Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croft-sitstand.md) - [Minimalist Sit-to-Stand Workstations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herman-miller-spout.md) - [Standing Desk Workstations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/standing-desk-workstations.md) - [Electric Standing Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergear-electric-standing-desk.md)
