Small Desks

Small Desks for the Home Office

Fit functionality and style into any space with small desks. In living rooms, home offices or bedrooms, place a small desk against a wall or near a corner to create a spot for writing letters, paying bills or completing work on the computer. Add storage for printers and computer accessories by installing wall shelves above the desk. Finish the space with decorative baskets that can hold office supplies, files or magazines. Create a coordinated look by using a desk chair that complements the small desk. For a clean, modern design, find a desk with a glass top and architectural metal legs. Prefer a more traditional aesthetic? Look for office furniture made of richly-stained woods that feature drawers and filing cabinets. In kids' rooms, consider a corner desk to give them a spot for homework, art projects and crafts, or find a leaning desk for older students who need a space for their laptop. If your home has an open-concept floorplan and no formal office space, consider using small storage furniture, such as open shelving, to create a work area that's separate from everything else without feeling closed-off.
