Top 10 Office Desks for Small Spaces

Maybe your kid just started getting his first homework assignments and you want to get him a desk for his room. Perhaps your kid’s all grown up, and you want to turn his old room into a home office. It could just be that you live in a very small apartment and don’t have a lot of room. Whatever the reason is that you need one, below is a top 10 list of office desks for small spaces.

Measurements: 42 inches wide, 20 inches deep and 36.75 inches high.
This compact computer desk has a very sleek design that is well suited for a small home office or a teenagers’ bedroom. It has plenty of storage capabilities. What strikes me most about this office desk is that it has such a simple, elegant design that is suitable with almost any home interior style, save perhaps for a very traditional one. It doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles; it just has what is needed from an office desk and nothing more.
Measurements: 42 inches wide, 20 inches deep and 29 inches high.
Talk about having no bells and whistles. This minimalistic desk is slightly smaller than the previous desk, but as you can see does not have as much storage space. It’s basically a writing desk with a fake drawer behind which is a hidden keyboard slide. It doesn’t have a lot of extra space, besides what you need to store your monitor. You can get an accompanying printer stand, but that would just take up even more space. The wood finish looks impeccable though, so I highly recommend it for people that really only need to have a desk for their computer and not much else.
Measurements: 23.6 inches wide, 17.75 inches deep and 30 inches high.
This desk is not only very small, it also has the benefit of a glass surface. Glass furniture always gives a room the appearance of having more space. This is the smallest desk on this list, but compared to some of the other smaller desks, I still find this design quite pleasing.
Measurements: 30 inches wide, 20 inches deep and 34.8 inches high.
The previous desks have all been computer desks, but for some of my readers their work may not involve a computer. In that case I wanted to include at least one writing desk in this top 10. You will probably note that it is very similar to #2 in this list. I recommend it for the same reasons as that one. The difference is the drawers on this one are actual drawers, in which you can keep your writing utensils, paper, or whatever else you need.
Measurements: 32.5 inches wide, 20 inches deep and 31.1 inches high.
This is the third office desk in this list created by Winsome Wood. It’s very different from the previous ones though. As you can see the type of wood used has a darker color and it has wheels underneath the legs. This makes it very easy to move the desk aside when needed, which is helpful when you need a bit of extra space in a certain area of your room. Be careful not to slide it too far away from the outlet box as the wiring may be pulled out, or worse, it may pull something off the desk and break it.
Measurements: 25 inches wide, 19.75 inches deep and 31.5 inches high.
If saving space is your number 1 priority, then this is the desk for you. I personally don’t care much for its look, but it is one of the smallest desks in this list. If you need room for anything else, besides your computer (books, papers, etc.), I recommend you choose one of the other desks. Like the previous item in this list, this is a rolling computer desk. I will give you the same warnings not to roll the desk too far from the outlet box.
Measurements: 40 inches wide, 20 inches deep and 30 inches high.
Another Winsome Wood desk! This company has a real talent for making small desks for small spaces. I recommend this one for people who work on a laptop, as the real benefit of this desk is that you can fold it up when you’re not using it. Of course, the functionality of this would be greatly diminished if you’re working on a desktop computer. For laptop users though, it is ideal!
Measurements: 30 inches wide, 20 inches deep and 75 inches high.
Winsome Wood again! This desk is not my personal favorite in this list aesthetically, but there’s no doubt this desk will save you some floor space. It only has 2 legs, which is something you don’t see everyday on a desk. It stays upright by leaning against the wall. If the desk alone doesn’t provide you with enough storage, then you can purchase matching shelves. (Of course you would have to sacrifice a bit more space)
Measurements: 34.6 inches wide, 21.3 inches deep and 28.7 inches high.
This desk is another one very well suited for small spaces, but not the most elegant looking of the bunch. It definitely serves its purpose though, as it will give you exactly enough storage for your computer, keyboard and monitor. Just don’t expect to fit much else on it. Like other desks on this list, it has wheels. This gives it the same functionality as the other ones, so I won’t repeat myself in that regard.
Measurements: 60 inches wide, 24 inches deep and 37 inches high.
This glass L-shaped computer desk is obviously much bigger than the previous three desks. It does not necessarily save space as much as the glass surface will give the room the appearance of having more space, which is also important. It also utilizes your corner space very well. It takes up more space than the previous two desks, but you get more workspace in return. Another benefit that is not unimportant is that is looks absolutely exquisite.

Wow. Half of the desks in this list were crafter by Winsome Wood. I swear I am not a spokesperson for the company. I hadn’t even noticed until I put them all together! Obviously, when it comes to small desks for small spaces, this is the company you go to.

I have to admit it was a rather hard list to put together, as I personally feel some of the desks in this list sacrifice aesthetics for saving space. I have given more weight to the latter than to the former though, as I believe the people that find this list will give more priority to it. Some of these desks would not have made the list if it weren’t for that. In any way, I hope that among this list of office desks for small spaces is the perfect one for you.
