The MotionDesk 3‑DL11 Sit Stand Desk for Standing Corner Desks

The MotionDesk 3 – DL11 is built around Linak’s DESKLIFT™ DL11 three-stage tabletop lifting columns—renowned for their compact Ø70 mm form, smooth 650 mm height range, and industry-leading noise control and stability. From 610 mm up to 1,260 mm, this desk easily accommodates sit‑stand workflow for users of nearly any height. With a total lift capacity around 200 kg, it’s tough enough for multi‑monitor setups or group workstations.

Ergomotion (based in Melbourne) manufactures cabinets and frames using this DL11 mechanism under the MotionDesk 2 & 3 range. Their frames include modular corner-return kits and adjustable-length frames that fit corners seamlessly between 1.5–2.2 m worksurfaces. They’re tested for low minimum heights (600 mm) up to around 1,250 mm standing range, ensuring wide ergonomic adaptability and robust stability guaranteed by a 10-year warranty on both mechanics and frame.

Why a Corner L-Shaped Desk Makes Perfect Sense

1. Space Efficiency & Productivity: An L‑shaped desk built on the DL11 provides expansive work surface and smart corner use—perfect for multi-taskers, dual monitors, or creative layouts, while still fitting snugly in compact rooms.
2. Custom Fit Potential: Ergomotion’s frames are adjustable via modular lengths and return add-ons, making it easy to configure bespoke corner setups from 1.5 m to 2.2 m sides—ideal for any office footprint.
3. Ergonomics & Performance: With fast, quiet motion—around 15 seconds full travel—multiple memory presets, anti‑collision systems, and heavy load capacity, the desk blends ergonomic comfort with high-function functionality.

Customization for Every Style, Environment & Colour Scheme

🖌︎ Surface Materials & Colours

• Choose hardwood veneers, commercial-grade melamine in oak or white, or high-end laminates. Options are wide enough to suit minimalist, Scandinavian, industrial or executive aesthetics.
• Coordinate finishes with frame colour (black, white, grey) to create contrast or harmony.

Frame & Column Finishes

• The DL11 lift columns are available in standard colours—black, white, grey—for aesthetic consistency or contrast with the desk top.
• Powder‑coated steel frames can be black or white (sometimes grey) depending on your environment.

Cable Management & Accessories

• Optional under-desk cable trays or CPU holders can be added to maintain a tidy workspace—especially in shared or hot-desking environments .
• Control panels typically offer LED display, and up to four programmable height presets.

Privacy & Acoustic Add-Ons

• Pair with divider screens (e.g. fabric or glass) for quiet focus zones in open office plans.
• Frame add-ons support acoustic modesty panels or monitor-mounted screens in screen‑lined configurations.

Size Variants & Modular Layouts

• Adapt designs to corner spaces from compact home-office L‑shapes to expansive multi-user pods.
• Adjustable frame length (1.5–2.2 m) lets you tailor both legs of the “L” for your room shape.

Example setups:

• Executive corner office: dark walnut top, white DL11-plus build with trim rings, black frame, screen dividers.
• Creative co‑working space: oak or bright laminate top, row of mirrored L desks, white lift legs, cable trays and screen separators.
• Minimalist home study: white top, grey DL11 lift, sleek black frame, optional under-desk drawer for clutter-free lines.

How the DL11 Mechanism Stands Out

Use‑Case Design Scenarios

• Corporate office hubs: Configurable pods arranged in corners or open plan islands; choose neutral tops and black frames for uniform aesthetics; screens for acoustic separation.
• Creative studios or agencies: White or oak tops with grey trims, colorful accent trim rings; integrated monitor arms and drawers for project teams.
• Hybrid home offices / family spaces: Color-coded desks (e.g. light grey, white) for different users; lockable CPU holders and cable management trays; quiet actuators for shared environments.

Final Thoughts

The MotionDesk 3‑DL11‑based corner desk sits at the intersection of ergonomic engineering, strong aesthetics, and customizable flexibility. Whether in a sleek minimal commercial setup or a bold, creative home workspace, its modular frames, variable finishes, and powerful yet silent lift make tailoring a corner desk to virtually any office environment easy and visually coherent. With a decade-long warranty and built-in safety features, it’s a robust, future-proof solution for sit‑stand corner workstation design.
