Know before you buy
The desk is available in two widths: 23.6 inches for the small version and 31.5 inches for the large version. Ensure you have enough clearance on either side to comfortably sit at the desk when it is folded down.
The desk is designed as a compact, dedicated workspace. While it comfortably fits a standard laptop and a small notebook, it is best suited for focused tasks rather than expansive projects requiring multiple monitors.
Yes, you can choose between Natural Oak or Natural Walnut for the main body. Additionally, you can select from three curated drawer color palettes—Slate Grey/Light Grey, Petrol Blue/Brushed Brass, or Ash Green/Sage—to coordinate with your interior.
The Gaston desk is engineered for stability as a writing and laptop surface. However, it is intended for standard office equipment and should not be used as a heavy-duty shelf or a seat.
Because the desk is wall-mounted, it is essential to install it into wall studs or use appropriate heavy-duty anchors suitable for your specific wall type, such as drywall, brick, or concrete. Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with wall-mounting furniture.
