9 Aesthetic Desk Ideas to Brighten Your Work Space

Whether you work from home or your kids are completing homework, finding the best desk design that works for your lifestyle can be a challenge. Here are 9 DIY desk ideas to help you work with your space, from storage solutions to personal style.

Midcentury Boho Desk

This gorgeous Boho theme runs rampant in our daughter's room so it was only fitting to continue it in the small space for her work desk. Even her desk chair compliments the beautiful midcentury style with its lush wood overtones.

Wicker baskets compliment wood tones and can add decorative storage to a desk area.

Color Scheme Accent

To create beautiful aesthetic desk ideas, one great option is to bring in elements that tie in to your color scheme. Gold accents are a great way to do it in this space and compliment the natural wood elements.

This desk lamp provides a classy gold pop of color with a faux marble base, also bringing in more light and functionality to the entire space.

It's also nice to have something on the top of your desk to help with the date and time. I used a gold accented flip calendar for additional style and also ordered this cute smart clock that syncs with Amazon.

Don't forget to add stylish wall art or a bulletin board. Love the wall art here? See how we added a DIY Boho touch to her room decor on a very small budget.

Aesthetic Desk Ideas with Storage Space

Because this cute and modern dark bedroom is a little busy on one wall, we wanted to keep this corner simple in color scheme and design. Plus, when you have a small desk and are tight on space, take advance of the wall storage.

Wall Storage

These cute organizers are magnetic and perfect for the ample space above the desk area. I installed these with command strips to not leave damage on the wall. Rotate storage compartments and use them to store office supplies.

Drawer Organization

If you have available drawer space, take advantage of these acrylic inserts to make your work area more functional. These are a great choice for adding organization to your drawers.

Additional Accent Pieces

Desk Area by Built-Ins

After building this DIY bunk bed in my son's room, we had just enough space for his desk. This empty space next to his bed is the perfect place for his desk. We opted to paint his desk the same color as his bed to give the appearance of everything built-in. It looks much more stylish and fluid this way with everything blending together.

See how we updated his room with the shiplap on the ceiling here.

Farmhouse Bedroom Desk

Compliment your room theme with an overall stylish work desk that can also be seen as a decorative focal point. The modern desk blends in well with this farmhouse master bedroom to create gorgeous aesthetic desk ideas.

Double Desk Nook

Got multiple kids needing a good work space? Turn your single home desk space into two by using either one extra long desk or placing two smaller desks side by side and connecting.

We used baskets for extra storage and an open raised shelf to help divide the space. And looking to beautify this area? Adding some of my favorite greenery will always dress up a minimalist look.

Aesthetic Desk Area in Family Room

I like this cute desk setup in our family room area because it can be used as a sofa table or a desk area when needed, with the extra mobile seating that can be stored underneath. In widely used living areas like this, it's a good idea to be able to have multipurpose spaces that can be adjusted according to needs.

The desk drawer baskets make it easy to hide any office supplies that aren't out for immediate use. I love a space that is both decorative and functional.

Vintage Work Desk

Beautiful accent pieces like this are a great choice for the refinishing enthusiast who really wants to add some style to their home desk. This ideal aesthetic desk setup is amazing for its unique characteristics and vintage class.
