YAKETY YAK’S responsive design transforms the way people connect

Why are our YAKETY YAK 202 and 203 Desks so popular?
Feedback from our customers reveals it’s all about how wonderfully these desks adapt and respond to each library’s specific requirements, with advanced features like our touch-button height adjustability, and our organically curved, interactive worktops, designed to encourage customer connection.

Take a look at how these public libraries and universities are deploying YAKETY YAK to enhance customer service.

At Charles Darwin University, new customer service desks were commissioned to align with their strategic path; ‘to enhance the student experience by having key student service providers in one place — the Library Hub’. Three YAKETY YAK 202 Desks were deployed as stand-alone customer service points throughout the library, easily adapting as a roaming station, issues point or help desk.

The desks complement the yellow décor throughout the space with their crisp white worktops and stunning frontages utilizing our new eye-catching Metamark films. See the full project…

At Harrison Memorial Library, the renovation of the main entrance provided the opportunity to re-think the library’s help desk requirements. YAKETY YAK Furniture supplied two YAKETY YAK 202 Desks, originally destined to be positioned side by side, in midst of the pandemic it was decided to deploy the desks separately, allowing for distancing and demonstrating just how easily YAKETY YAK adapts to change.

At Yakety Yak Furniture we believe responsive, ergonomic design is non-negotiable. It’s about how people interact with the things they use; we call this ‘the people fit’. We know that our furniture is likely to be used by many different people in many different ways – sometimes all on the same day. Therefore, our desks are designed to be flexible, adaptable and remain useful for many years.
