When I converted a spare bedroom into my office space nearly 2 decades ago, I wanted a built-in desk flanked by bookshelves. Thanks to my husband, that became a reality. Now that I've been working from home, I'm beginning to consider different desk styles. You too? Let's look at some office desk options that will compliment different sized spaces and reflect your personality.
Simply, No-Frills
Thanks to technology and digital storage, gone are the days of needing storage like filing cabinets and lots of desk drawers. These days, a simple, open desk without drawers will meet the needs of many who work from home. If you want a simple and airy look, a basic desk like this one might be a good fit.

Mobility
Consider whether you want your desk to be mobile or not. A desk on wheels gives you the flexibility to move it around as the sunshine streams through the windows or when you want a change of scenery. It makes it easier to clean the the space under it too. Look for wheels that lock so you don't find your desk rolling way each time you move your chair.

When you're finished with your work, pull down the top and get on with your day (great when you have kids...).
