By extension, the table itself eventually took the name of the fabric that covered it: the desk. Unlike the writing desk, it is defined by its large fixed surface and exposed legs, offering a space for reflection without frills. Also known as a "flat desk," it remains the centerpiece to anchor a workspace with character.
