This desk was built into an alcove but also it comes out along a long wall, it has no legs and is just supported with metal bars in the wall, we reused the drawer unit that we removed form the other side of the room because it was in perfect working order and drawers cost a lot, we just added new drawer fronts and sides. We also built floating shelves above it. Between the shelves and the desk we also fitted a metal sheet that could be used as a magnetic notice board. This unit was sprayed white as opposed to hand painted, this is more durable but more expensive. This was built in a house in Notting Hill, London.
