If I was wanting to design, build my own desk or choose options via a website, what places can I visit to look at ideas and designs?

I might take a trip down to Croydon to the massive Ikea store there and have a look, just been online but when looking in person the views are different

If you go to Ikea in person, you can actually see the different desktops and legs and deside which top you want and whatever legs you want to go with it. So you can go with different heights and styles.

If you don't have one close enough, just get the Galant, like ChrisxlxCross recomended. That's what I just bought. There's many different sizes and shapes of Galant (straight, corner, etc)

I personally would check out IkeaHackers.net for inspiration or ideas related to hacking a plain-Jane IKEA Desk into something amazing. A couple of my favorites are posted below:
