Abstract
A desk that includes a desk top that has a forward book support surface having an equilateral triangle shape that is movable between a raised position and a lowered position about a base of the support surface. The support surface has sides that each form a front side edge of the desk top when the support surface is in the lowered position. A writing surface is attached to the base and has opposite side edges that coincide with a periphery of an imaginary circle that is parallel with the writing surface. The support surface is disposed inside the imaginary circle when the support surface is in the raised position and has a front portion that extends outside the periphery of the imaginary circle when the support surface is in the lowered position.

A desk including a desk top attached to a frame comprising:
- a forward book support surface having an equilateral triangle shape, the support surface being movable between a raised position and a lowered position about a pivot point at a base of the Support surface, the support surface having sides and a rear edge, each side forming a front side edge of the desk top when the support surface is in the lowered position;
- a writing surface attached to the base of the support surface, the writing surface having opposite side edges, each side edge having a convex shape that coincides with a periphery of an imaginary circle, the support surface being disposed inside the imaginary circle when the support surface is in the raised position, the support surface having a front portion extending outside the periphery of the imaginary circle when the support surface is in the lowered position;
- and the writing surface having a straight front edge that is parallel with the base and the writing surface has outwardly curved side edges that form rear side edges of the desk top.
