Buying Guide

What’s the best desk to use for a small home office?

A white corner desk with shelves is a great way to modernize your office space. Choosing light colors for furniture is ideal for a small room because the brightness makes it feel more spacious. A corner desk enables you to swivel between two work surfaces, allowing for better organization and zero wasted space.

Shelving can be below the desktop or above, like an attached bookshelf. The latter is ideal because this extra height uses the wall space in your office effectively and creates the illusion of a higher ceiling.

To make the most of your desk space, maintain an organized work area with a filing system and avoid clutter on the desktop. In a small space, minimalism is a key approach to staying organized and still finding storage space for everything you need in the office.

Other desks that are excellent choices for a small home office include a folding desk that can be stored under a bed or sofa, a Murphy desk that fold flat against the wall, or a small vanity that can be used as a desk, side table, and makeup station in your bedroom.

What dimensions should a corner desk with shelves have?

The exact dimensions a corner desk with shelves should have varies by product, but relatively standard measurements are roughly 51" W x 51" D x 28.3" H. This size provides you with sufficient surface area for working on the desktop, with storage space underneath.

When selecting your white corner desk with shelves, consider the size of your office space and how much of the room you’re willing to devote to this unit. You may need to sacrifice some width or depth on the desk in a tiny office to avoid making the room feel cramped. The height of all desks should be around the 28”- 30” mark to adequately accommodate a desk chair.

What rooms are best to place a white corner desk?

The best room to place your white corner desk with shelves is your home office. This allows you to separate work from home life and gives you a designated area to get your work done.

If your home does not have a spare room that can be made into an office, you can place your white corner desk in your bedroom, ensuring it is as far away from your bed as possible. This distance allows you to create a distinct space between work and relaxation time.

A white corner desk also works well in a walk-in closet or bathroom as a vanity table. The corner design saves space in the compact closet, and you can use the desk’s numerous drawers to store beauty products.

You can place your white corner desk with shelves in the living room. However, if you are someone who gets distracted easily, you should face your white corner desk with shelves, toward the wall. Alternatively, use the desk as an entertainment center by placing a small TV on the desktop and storing multimedia items on the shelves.
