Floating Desks

If you needn’t any shelves or don’t want to make any, a floating desk will be a nice choice, too. Attach one to the wall next to the window to get enough light, or take a whole wall. Corner floating desks are also nice – it’s a great way to decorate an awkward corner. If you need a larger desk, for example, a desk for two or three, take a couple of walls and build a long floating desk. Don’t forget of storage space – drawers and box compartments are welcome!
