Built in office desk

So I want to make a built in office desk out of MDF. I am not sure what I should use for the legs?

Any ideas?

Why not more MDF. Good quality MDF works fine as long as you don't get it real wet and you plan to paint it.

If you use MDF, seal (paint) all surfaces. It takes paint real well. Don't count on screws to hold it together. Tenons or lap joints work well.
