If you’re one of the millions of people working from home since early last year, you probably know how important it is to have a good work surface. Makeshift offices can only go so far, and at some point, investing in a desk becomes necessary. But how to choose one when space is an issue? The answer could be a modern secretary desk.
Secretary desks are making a stealthy comeback in the world of home office furniture, and there are many reasons why. They can serve multiple purposes at once, all while occupying very little space at home. This makes a modern secretary desk one of the most successful solutions for people who don’t have much space at home.
There are many ways in which you can use a secretary desk, and it can really become an ally in minimizing clutter and maximizing the space you have available. Use yours as a desk, a storage solution, or even as an accent piece. There are so many ways to incorporate one in your home, and it offers so many opportunities.
Let’s look into our many options available for you and the ways in which a modern secretary desk can transform your home. We proudly design our collections by always keeping quality, design and functionality in mind. Our goal is to make our customers’ work-from-home experience as pleasant and productive as possible, and become your one-stop-shop for home office furniture in the USA.
Use It as a Primary Workstation
If you’re tight on space and work remotely, a modern secretary desk is the perfect solution for you. Thanks to its clever and concealed design, it works perfectly as a primary workstation in small homes where the space for a bigger desk is lacking.
Simply pull out the laptop tray when you need to work, pull up a chair, and you’re ready to start working. Whenever you’re done, you can push the keyboard and laptop tray back in, and regain space in your room.
Living in a small home and working for long hours might make it daunting to sit in the same space all day long. This is another reason why a modern secretary desk is a fantastic addition for your space, because when not used as a desk, it is compact and space-saving, and can be repurposed as a credenza or storage piece.
Another great perk of secretary desks is the fact that they can be matched and paired with pretty much any interior and decor. If you like farmhouse designs, don’t forget to check out our gorgeous Salinas Collection and the many secretary desks offered in it. This is one of our most versatile and stunning collections, available in many colors for the whole home. Opt for additional storage solutions such as a filing cabinet or a bookcase, or even accent tables and kitchen cabinets.
Use It as a Storage Solution
A secretary desk is also a wonderful solution to store away objects you prefer to keep out of sight. If you live in a small apartment and don’t have much space for a whole home office, a modern secretary desk can function both as a desk and a storage solution for your office supplies.
Most of our models come with a laptop or keyboard tray and additional storage at the bottom, concealed by doors. You can place your secretary desk in any room of your house where you prefer to work. From the living room to the bedroom or even the entryway, it’s a terrific option for any space.

Use It As a Secondary Workstation
Secretary Desks are not just for people living in small homes. You can still take advantage of all the benefits a modern secretary desk has to offer if you live in a big house! For example, have you ever thought of getting a second workstation for long work shifts?
Some people find it beneficial to change their environment while working and shifting to a secondary workstation. Space is sometimes an issue, even if you have a home office, but a secretary desk can fit pretty much into any room, so it’s really the perfect solution.
Anytime you feel stuck or unproductive, simply grab your laptop and go work at your secretary desk. You can place it pretty much in any room, and pull up a chair and work whenever you feel like you need a change of scenery.
If you’re in need of a storage piece and could benefit from a secondary desk, place your modern secretary desk in the hallway or entryway. You’ll gain both a storage solution and a desk. What more could you ask for?
… Don’t Forget to Decorate!
We couldn’t, of course, forget to mention the importance of decorating. Whatever the purpose of your secretary desk, don’t forget to decorate it with your favorite plants, pictures, and small design objects.
Plants add a touch of greenery to the space, which is also said to be therapeutic, relaxing, and mood enhancing. Whether you use your secretary desk as a desk or a storage solution, a beautiful little plant would look gorgeous on it. There are many office-friendly plants to choose from.
You can also decorate your desk with photos, pictures, and little design objects. For decor and lifestyle hacks, make sure you follow us on Instagram and Facebook for weekly content on how to transform your home with style and ease.
