Add a Scandi-style standing desk to your home office

FRISKA

Many of us have had the experience of working from home in the past year — and may be doing so for some time to come.

FRISKA is a Scandinavian-inspired British company creating adjustable standing desks that offer both high-end design and usability — and are whisper-quiet in motion.

Made and designed in Sweden with a 10-year guarantee, you can choose from narrower desks if you have limited space at home, as well as different desktops and frame designs to suit your style. Use code NEWSWITCH to have your desk upgraded to the new in-set switch design. Find out more online at friskadesk.com
