Computer armoires and hutches are a magnificent way to keep your computer safe from pets or kids, and to prevent its modernity from intruding on your historically themed room décor. Some computer armoires look very much like ordinary closets or armoires, while hutches leave the computer open to view.
Armoires and hutches are set up to control not only all the bits and pieces, wiring and attachments that seem to go with computers but also to have storage for the papers that often go with the work you must do on your computer. More than that, they provide a stable place for your computer activities. If you work at home, this can go a long way toward helping you keep your operations professional.
Either a hutch or an armoire can be a great choice for organizing your home office. Whether you are just taking care of your monthly bills and personal correspondence, or whether you are writing professionally or even if you spend a great deal of your time with online games, having a designated place for your computer will go a long way toward preserving it. It also makes a place that you can team up with an ergonomic computer chair to relieve stress on you while using the computer.
A classic hutch is a combination shelving and cabinet unit that can be set on top of a desk or a counter. It can have a rolltop, sliding doors, pigeon holes or shelves, depending upon the needs of the user and the inspiration of the designer. Whereas a hutch would have once overtopped a desk with a large ledger, these days it is more likely to house a computer keyboard and monitor or a laptop. A printer might be tucked away in the desk or below the counter to increase the effectiveness of the unit.
The armoire is more of a floor to ceiling unit that once was likely to be used to store clothing. A computer armoire conceals the setup for a digital age behind closed doors. Not only does this raise the aesthetics of most rooms (unless you are going for ultra-modern), it creates a space that could conceivably have a lock attached, making a moderately secure place for your external files and your computer. While unlikely to deter a determined thief, it should be enough to slow down curious children or marauding pets.
A hutch is often more plainly styled that an armoire. It can easily blend in with an office arrangement or be equally comfortable in a kitchen or even in the hall. Easy to access, and to place, it is a great place for everything from butterfly collections to recipe files, from monthly bills to poetry or manuscripts.
An armoire might be styled to match a bedroom suite, especially one of the Victorian sets with their dark, heavy furniture pieces. It might have a door with louvered slats, or more solid paneling and could even be decorated with spindles and gingerbread.
