Every sleep expert agrees–get your work out of your bedroom so the bedroom is no place for a desk. But, let’s face it, they say that about the TV too and how many of us fall asleep to that every night?? Plus, for many of us, it’s just a necessary evil since we might not have another private/quiet space to do our work. So, if you are going to do it, here are some ideas…
A window is always a great place under which to put a desk–that way when you are working in your bedroom, you’re looking outside and not at your bed!


With limited space, you could have a side table play double duty as a desk…but let’s be honest, you could get a laptop on here and not much else so not for the serious home worker!


This little mini parsons desk from PB Teen would make a great bedside table/desk solution for a small room

Sometimes you really do need a little more working space so a corner (that would likely go otherwise unused) is a good solution

Check out the back left corner of this room–a built-in desk is a great use of space here

This is a practical use of a smaller closet (as long as you don’t need it for clothes) that essentially creates a small office in your bedroom–you see a lot of inspiration shots like this for kids’ rooms,but nice to see it could work for adults too!

Hey, maybe your work will be so boring that it will actually lull you to sleep and you can prove all those experts wrong!
