Winston Churchill Standing Desk

Winston Churchill worked at a standing desk

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts.” When at his home, Winston Churchill wrote and worked at a standing desk that was given to him by British statesman Benjamin Disraeli, who like many of his Victorian generation preferred to be on their feet whilst writing.

Despite smoking 10 cigars a day Churchill lived until he was 90 years old.
Standing and working can strengthen your lower back, improve your posture and enhance your mental focus. It certainly worked for Winston!

Our S-Desk Two setup

Our S-Desk Two setup with a full size Apple keyboard, trackpad, 15″ MacBook Pro and iPhone 6s. I know, I know, another pic with a load of Apple product on it, but they are digital tools of our trade (this is all my own kit) and they still look very well upon our desks. Going to try and borrow other blingy Mac alternatives for some variation in setup shots and to show that our desks work with all manor of equipment. We’ve even got customers that use these for model and jewellery making – photos of that coming soon. If you can work on it sitting down, you can work on it standing up.
