How does a typewriter desk work?

A typewriter desk works due to its unique design. Although pieces vary, most have a special storage area that sits at a comfortable level for typing. On many desks, a sliding door covers this compartment to keep the typewriter hidden from sight and free of dust. Shop a range of typewriter desks on 1stDibs.
