8 Home Office Desk Ideas to Bring Your Workspace to the Next Level – Vevano

By the Vevano Home Team

November 8, 2021
By the Vevano Home Team

When you work from home, the office desk you use can make or break the workday. Pick the wrong one, and you could end up with stacks of paper, clutter, and frustration. Place it in the wrong spot, and you could end up feeling disorganized, distracted, and inefficient. If you want to improve your work environment, we suggest choosing the best desk for your needs from desks like these:

Where to Place Your Home Office Desk

The placement of your home office desk plays a critical role in the look and feel of the room, in addition to your productivity and efficiency. There are plenty of factors to take into consideration when deciding on home office desk ideas. These factors include the size of your room, where you need to face, your tendency to distractibility, and whether others share your office space or whether the room is your workspace alone.

Small home office desk ideas include utilizing a minimalist desk and furniture that can serve multiple purposes, such as a shorter filing cabinet that allows you to utilize the open space on top for file organization.

Home office corner desk ideas get a bit trickier if you want to face the rest of the room. If you’re content to face one of the walls that form the corner, then you would benefit greatly from an L shaped desk that provides plenty of storage and organizational space thanks to the room for drawers and desk space adjoining the area where you place your computer.

If you share an office space, then you’ll need to utilize double desk home office ideas. There are a variety of ways to place your double desk setup, from sandwiching them back-to-back if you have limited space or placing them side by side if you need to be close. In larger offices, you might want to place them on opposite sides of the room to give the illusion of a separate workspace.

Home office desk setup ideas will vary depending on how much paperwork you have, how organized you like to be, and whether you need space for organization or if you prefer a more minimalist setup. Desk drawers will naturally provide room for paperwork and file organization. A minimalist desk will mean that you either have no hardcopy files floating around or you use a filing system, like a modern filing cabinet.

How you set up your office space is a deeply personal decision based on the space you have, your personal preference for organization and aesthetics, and your need for efficiency. A small desk will naturally fit better in a smaller office space while a corner or L shaped home office desk is more ideal for larger offices. If you’re looking for home office ideas for a unique space, consider drawing out the floor plan of your office and sketching different arrangements to decide which you like the best.

Top 8 Functional and Beautiful Home Office Desks

For traditional, transitional, or classic spaces, you can’t go wrong with this gorgeous, reclaimed wood matte black desk. It features four drawers (two of which are ideal for file storage), two pull-out writing panels, and an inlaid leather top.

If you need a desk idea that provides a good pop of decor, positions you as a power player, and inspires a sense of an established CEO, then this is the desk you’ll want to have at home.

The midcentury modern Tucker Desk in Oil Rubbed Bronze is perfect for a small space, like a converted guest room that now functions as a home office. One of the things we love about this desk is how much storage space it has. It contains a whopping five drawers, providing you with plenty of storage space. Need a secretary desk? Look no further than this piece of modern home office furniture.

If you’re looking for a modern home office idea, this desk design should pair perfectly with your existing mid-century decor.

Add in a modern office chair, and you’ll have an office furniture pairing that provides you with a writing desk that any work-from-home employee or business owner would love.

Are you looking for industrial-style office furniture? If so, you don’t want to pass up the Shadow Desk in Black. This desk perfectly combines an eclectic mix of art and design, giving you a workspace with a glass enclosure on top for knickknacks, mementos, awards from the office, drawings from your children, or unique items that create a visual statement. Then, the two drawers provide space for office supplies on the top and file storage on the bottom.

Matte black metal, brass knobs, and a glass shadow top create a one-of-a-kind work space for any small home office.

Pair the Sampson Desk in Antique Brass with offices that are styled with a rustic, farmhouse, modern, or industrial vibe. This desk is functional decor that is as stunning as it is practical. The iron legs feature a diamond design that works well as a modern desk, while the greyed oak desktop can fit in with any office idea from a rustic design to an industrial setting.

Three drawers with antique brass drawer pulls provide enough storage space for office supplies to ensure that you’ll never have a messy desk. If placed against a wall, you’ll have a blank canvas of wall space to accent your work space and finish off your ideal home office setup.

Modern, farmhouse, and rustic-styled office spaces need this beautiful, simple French-inspired Palma Desk in Whitewash. The entire piece, from desk surface to legs, is made from reclaimed elm and whitewashed to provide character. Two pullout leaves, one on either side, create extra room when you need more space or provide you with an additional area for storage, writing, or organizing.

Though this isn’t a completely white desk, it will certainly fit in with an office space that uses white as a dominant theme. The desk surface shows the gorgeous natural lines of the wood, and the whole design inspires a sense of creativity. You’ll also maximize your floor space with this desk, as the sleek X-shaped legs and supporting bar in the back take up very little space.

If you’re looking for a unique desk idea that can fit in well with a dining room turned office space, look no further than the Lauren Desk in Warm Brown. This mid-century desk is inspired by the classic lawyer’s desk with its storage space, simple build, and mix of wood and metal. Four drawers provide plenty of storage space, with three smaller drawers on the right side and one deep file drawer on the left.

The floating shelf desktop and simple legs give this desk the appearance of being a wall mounted desk when placed against a wall. When placed away from the wall with space around it, it presents a unique appearance with mid-century flair and style. All you need now is a home office chair and you’ll be set.

This is a perfect small desk for bedroom office spaces thanks to its minimalist design and clean look. Farmhouse, rustic, and industrial-styled spaces can all benefit from placing this desk in the home office space.

As opposed to the floating shelf office desk, it’s minimal in form and function, so you’ll need a separate area for file storage. There is plenty of desk space, however, for organizing files, working on your laptop, and keeping notebooks and folders nearby.

While this isn’t a live edge desk, the concrete desktop creates a unique and rustic appearance that is second to none. If you plan on placing this desk in a common room, utilize rustic living room furniture nearby to create a dynamic look and feel.

Creating the Office of Your Dreams

Creating an office that maximizes your space, creates an efficient area for productivity and high output, and encourages creativity doesn’t have to be impossible. Rather, with the right desk, you can achieve all of that and more with added storage and interesting designs.

Before you’re ready to purchase your new office furniture, consider how you need it to function, what style you want the desk to fit in with, and where you want to place it. Desk placement can make or break your ability to concentrate in a home office setting, especially if you need to place it in a common room, like the living room.

With the right placement, the number of drawers for storage space, and the desktop size that provides enough room to spread out or just enough area to maximize a small space, you’ll be cranking out projects, creating new designs, and reaching the top of your game in no time.

Home office: 75 photos - design of a workplace in an apartment, ideas on how to organize a work corner

In typical apartments, there is not always enough space for an ordinary standard-sized table - let alone a respectable office. We have to be content with the "mini" option. Creating a tiny work area (as in the photo) where you can sit in maximum comfort is not so easy. We are in a hurry to share decor ideas and unexpected solutions with you. nine0006

For the most hypnotic effect of viewing this article, we advise you to click on the first photo and go to full screen mode.

On some photos you will find green labels that contain additional information about the items used in this interior. Under the photos you can find information about the project and the techniques and materials used.

Vera Tarlovskaya Interiors

1. Sunny accents
A monochromatic workplace won't look boring and featureless if you add a few juicy accents to it. For this purpose, choose rich yellow shades that will not only fill the room with a sunny mood, but also improve your concentration.

Studio Revolution

2. Scandinavian restraint
If you are used to the fact that creative chaos always reigns in the workplace of an apartment, learn from the Scandinavians the ability to find their place for every thing. The less chaos and mess there is on the surface of the table and shelves, the visually more spacious the room will look. nine0006

3. Oriental flavor
The owner of this apartment didn't want the workplace to look too formal and office-like. A vintage hand-embroidered leather chair, a large exotic lamp, Turkish textiles, a colorful board for inspiration - and as a result, a small table has turned into a cozy corner where inspiration always hovers.

Dayka Robinson Designs

4. Versatility
For a small bedroom, the two-in-one option is perfect, when the workplace also doubles as a bedside cabinet. nine0006

5. Almost without legs
LAGO's top on transparent glass supports demonstrates the ability to float in the air. Undoubtedly, such an optical illusion will benefit any small space.

6. Rational substitution
When there is very little space on the table surface and nowhere to stick a table lamp, you can always allocate a piece of space for a slender floor lamp next to the workspace. It is best that it be articulated and fixed in different positions. nine0006

7. In a black and black room
It's hard to believe, but the workplace in the apartment in the photo does not belong to the character of a gloomy detective, but to a young illustrator. Although, why not? After all, black walls will definitely not distract from work.

8. Mission Possible
As you can see, squeezing a countertop between two cabinets is a very doable task. Well, you can beat an empty wall the way the designers from the Duggan studio did it - with charming wallpaper with graceful flamingos. nine0006

Nanette Wong

9. Always on top
A regular shelf attached at just the right height paired with a bar stool is a great workstation for a mom with a small child.

Maria Killam

10. Not for claustrophobes
It is quite possible to arrange a chamber work area under the stairs, the main thing is to think over not only the design of the office, but also ergonomics, so as not to beat your head or hands on anything.

Olga Ashby Interiors

11. Right under the roof
It is sometimes difficult to find suitable furniture for the attic floor, but a small table with a chair will fit under the slope of the roof. In the case of this workplace, designer Olga Kulikovskaya decided to choose an unusual table with curly mirror inserts, which undoubtedly became the main highlight of the whole image and created an interesting visual effect.

ComfyDwelling.com

12. In search of inspiration
In order to keep your muse alive during the creative process, organize a small moodboard in front of you. An ordinary metal mesh from the nearest hardware or hardware store is perfect as a base. She certainly will not take away useful centimeters of the working area, but she will always tune in the right way. nine0006

13. Instead of a window sill
A tiny narrow room with a wide work surface near the window turned out to be even more functional and comfortable due to the fact that it immediately flows into a shelf. This home office design is also good because everything you need is always at hand.

14. One piece
A light and springy playful home office is quite organically integrated into the surrounding interior of this Australian apartment. It seems as if a snow-white writing desk with drawers grew right out of the wall and became its integral part. nine0006

Arseniy Karinsky Architectural Studio

15. American Classic
Restrained color scheme, classic ornate forms, natural wood, intricate patterns… with their own affairs.

Shirley Meisels

16. Instead of a board for inspiration
Some people need to always have a moodboard in front of their eyes for inspiration, but some people hang a big picture above their table. Choosing an image with a perspective is a good trick for small apartments: it will visually expand the available space. nine0006

17. A gift with a story
The owner of this Pennsylvania house is very tall, which is why a friend made a nice gift for him - a narrow antique table of non-standard height. And against the backdrop of dark wallpaper by William Morris, the work area began to look even more expressive.

18. In a niche
An inconvenient niche can always be improved with a floating table top, thereby turning it into a useful workspace. nine0006

Found Associates

19. In the power of white
This workspace feels incredibly light and airy. And all thanks to the complete dominance of white and transparent acrylic furniture, which visually does not encroach on valuable square meters.

20. For a Princess
A tidy secretary with delicate, barely visible legs paired with a vintage chair takes up very little space in a secluded corner of this Los Angeles bedroom. Flowers are everywhere here: on the wallpaper, in a vase, which indicate that this is a women's territory. Even the picture makes it clear that the work area belongs to a true princess. nine0006

Nina Frolova

21. DIY
When the owner of the apartment is the owner of a carpentry workshop, there is nothing surprising in the fact that a retro table is adjacent to former wooden window sills instead of shelves and a lamp made of solid oak root.

Insight Design

22. An indispensable assistant
Instead of sticking reminder stickers in different places every time, get a large clear glass magnetic whiteboard. nine0006

Going Home To Roost

23. Breath of spring
Even if it doesn't smell like spring outside, let it into your house right now! Just a few pastel blotches, yellow accents, fresh or watercolor flowers - and the workplace will immediately sparkle with spring colors, and you will have a second wind.

24. Feminine and delicate
Do you have some window space in your bedroom? Then put a neat laconic table there, a seat without a back and bet on a win-win white color. Well, fresh flowers, a couple of metallic accents and a fur cape will help soften the whole look and make it more tender and feminine. nine0006

VVDesign

25. An aristocrat's dream
This project in the photo of the VVDesign design bureau received the telling name "Aristocrat's Dream" and, apparently, fully corresponds to it. A plain white table and a chair on wheels fit organically into the rather colorful interior of the bedroom.

CO Interiors

26. In the closet
This pull-out workspace in a one-room apartment is convenient due to the fact that there is a lot of free legroom below. nine0006

27. An interesting specimen
The glass worktop, which is an extension of the nightstand, does an excellent job of saving space without sacrificing functionality.

29. Who's there?
A workplace at the front door is also quite an acceptable option for residents of private houses. But in the apartment it is better to look for a lighter and less cramped space for these purposes.

30. By the Window
Window cabinets are quite common in small apartments, and so that the space between them is not empty, fix the wooden table top with brackets. nine0006

36. For a needlewoman
Needlewoman Mariet Van Der Koy lives in this Scandinavian apartment with her boyfriend. Due to the lack of capacious storage systems, a large craft package settled next to the workplace, which contained all the necessary materials for needlework.

Tim Barber Architects

37. Masking principle
A worktop that matches the tone of the walls, even without legs, almost completely merges with the room and does not burden it with its presence. In such a situation, it is better to abandon a chair or armchair in favor of a neutral, inconspicuous stool. nine0006

SchappacherWhite Architecture D.P.C.

38. Architectural sophistication
Any irrational protrusions can always be beaten with custom-made furniture. In the case of this tiny home office, a metal rod from the ceiling keeps the floating shelves from losing height.

39. Paired with white
To capture the autumnal sea vibe of this Vancouver home, the design is complemented with a few splashes of cool blue-greens and grays on a white surface. nine0006

40. Silence in the library!
Dreams of a home library run counter to the available square meters in the apartment? Go for the trick with fake wallpapers from Cole&Son or Mr Perswall. A slate wall perfectly complements the overall picture.

41. Space-saving lamps
In order not to take away useful centimeters of the desktop surface, you can replace the table lamp with a pendant lamp or sconce. nine0006

42. Nautical inspiration
The wood of dark shades, the combination of deep blue and yellow accents involuntarily evoke associations with the sun's rays flickering on the endless expanses of the sea.

43. In a bay window
A small bay window can also be put to good use if you place a built-in countertop in the ledge at a height of 75-80 centimeters from the floor.

Yama Architecture

44. Thoughtful details
Another home office option that can be quickly removed from view if necessary. And so that the open doors do not interfere during work, make them call in.

45. More light!
No matter how compact the workplace in a small apartment is, one should not forget about its proper lighting, especially when the desk is located away from the window. So that your eyes do not get tired quickly, combine the overhead light with a table lamp of approximately the same saturation. nine0006

46. In Contrast
White open shelves look incredibly stylish against a dramatic navy blue damask wallpaper. And besides, they draw all the attention to themselves, leaving the workplace almost invisible, which is very useful in a small room.

47. Industrial Romance
A compact, slightly worn cobalt-coloured metal table playfully echoes the Venetian gondolas in the painting. nine0006

48. De-cluttering the space
When all the furniture and finishes are done in the same white color, it doesn't let a small space look cluttered. The workplace of the apartment in New York quite imperceptibly merged into the surroundings, especially since all the attention was diverted by a signboard of a fiery red hue.

Margot Hartford Photography

49. Miniature Replacement
It's not often you see an interior with this kind of home office seat, but why not? An armchair and a chair take up too much space - unlike a pouffe, which can also serve as an additional storage system. nine0006

Integrated bench seat and pull-out table - how do you like this idea for a mini-office in the kitchen? And in order not to spoil your eyesight, get a mobile floor lamp on a slender leg, preferably with adjustable height. nine0006

52. A little bit of brightness
As you know, white color contributes to better concentration. But why not liven up your home office with bright details and fun motivational posters?

53. Retro office
A compact 60's-style desk that's a good option for a cramped room. But it can be supplemented with a table lamp on a height-adjustable leg, in order to illuminate only the keyboard if necessary. nine0006

54. Friendship with the invisible
In order not to overload an already small space, opt for a transparent chair that will completely dissolve in the surroundings. How about elegant "invisibles" from Philippe Starck?

Another clear proof of how harmonious and functional you can arrange your home office in the kitchen. The main thing is to use all the vertical space up to the ceiling using shelves. nine0006

61. More freshness
Living plants fit perfectly into the design of the home office, which by their presence not only add freshness, but also enliven the workplace. Even in a limited area, you can create a whole garden. In addition to cacti and miniature succulents, use plants in hanging pots, because they will not steal usable space.

62. Two levels
In the case of this workstation, storage systems are located not under the tabletop, but on it. Thus, a two-level desk is obtained. nine0006

64. Unique charm
Despite all its deliberate roughness, this workplace has a rustic charm and industrial touch. nine0006

65. Everything you need on the wall
When there is not enough storage near the workplace, be smarter - use the vertical space. The perforated metal sheet will become the abode of all the necessary tools and materials.

66. Mobile office in the kitchen
Do not be discouraged if, due to lack of space, it is not possible to place even a small table or secretary in one of the rooms. Take a look around your kitchen, perhaps there is a nook for quick work. nine0006

67. Such a width…
This table is not too small, but it will fit even in a small area, because it takes up very little space in width.

68. One brick, two bricks
You can make a full-wall wardrobe, or you can leave room for a home office. Well, the brick finish will be a great backdrop, adding depth and visual interest to the entire space. nine0006

69. To match the walls
A work wooden table to match the walls creates a special chamber atmosphere, and the presence of white objects and inserts prevents the space from turning into a single dark spot.

70. By the Window
Having your mini home office set right next to a window is a big plus, as you get plenty of natural light. But in this case, the most correct and logical decision would be to use Roman blinds or roller blinds. nine0006

71. Masking drapery
An empty niche from a former pantry or closet can be transformed into a cozy home office with lots of necessary shelves and rails. And once the job is done, curtain your workplace and forget it exists.

73. Next to the stairs
If you live in your own house and have a similar staircase leading to the second floor, do not miss the opportunity to use the existing corner for a workplace instead of just decorating it with a floor vase of flowers.
