If you have been working safely from home for the better part of the year, you can attest to the importance of a good home office set up. An ergonomic chair, some mood lighting, and a plant or two are all elements of a fertile workspace that will help keep you focused and sane during your socially distanced working hours.
A good work desk, in particular, can go a long way in promoting productivity levels in the absence of your regular office. To keep your spirits high and your creative juices flowing, pick a design-forward desk that will spruce up your interiors while providing a spacious working surface. Whether you’re banging out a quarantine novel or drudging through your daily slew of emails, these Vogue-approved designer desks are as stylish as they are functional, perfect for serving as the focal point of this year’s buzziest part of the house—the home office.
