What is the difference between a bow-front desk and a kidney-shaped desk?

A bow-front desk has a single outward curve along the front edge — the sides remain essentially straight, giving it a half-moon curve on the front face only. A kidney-shaped desk has a concave center section (indented inward) that wraps around the user's midsection, with convex lobes on each side. Kidney desks are more decorative and residential; bow-front desks are more architectural and executive in feel. Kidney-shaped desks are primarily found in home office or boutique office contexts, while bow-front desks dominate corporate executive environments.
