Almost every home in America has a computer, and along with the computer a computer desk. One style of modern desk that has gained in popularity with computers is the corner desk. The main advantage to the corner desk that has contributed to its popularity is their space saving design. There are not that many pieces of furniture available that allows such ideal use of a place in the home which is often considered "dead space". A corner desk will fit nicely into that space, and that may be it, or if you have more room, you can have an extension coming off of one or both sides of the corner unit.
For quite a while, the space saving functionality was the main thing going for the corner desk. Along with that functionality, for the most part, the corner desk just looked functional. Not a whole lot of style was involved. But lately the market has been changing. There are some corner desks available that are also really nice looking pieces of furniture. Let's take a look at a couple of companies that have gone the extra mile in design as well as function.
Modern Office Desks
The first company that I came across whose corner desks really jumped out at me as to being nice and stylish is Home Styles Furniture. Home Styles has been around since 1998, and their goal has been to produce Ready-to-Assemble furniture that merges high functionality with great looking designs. Their styling is both traditional and contemporary, so there is something to suit most any taste. Besides looking good, Home Styles say that their furniture offers "innovative functionality" because they strive to find innovative storage options and furniture configurations. They also use hardwood in their construction and high quality hardware so that their furniture lasts for years.
One of their great styles is the laptop desk. This desk can sit in the corner, posing as an occasional table, allowing it to fit into any room. But the height of the desk and the configuration of the legs is designed so that a chair can be pulled up and the surface used comfortably while working on your laptop. The laptop desk comes in slightly different styles and finishes to suit a variety of tastes.
Southern Enterprises, Inc (SEI) is not an actual manufacturer, but an importer. They have been around for over 30 years, and in that time they have perfected the art of finding the types of home furnishings that people want and then offering them to the public. To keep on top of the industry, their market research is continuous, allowing them to keep track of the minute changes in their customer's design tastes.
Southern Enterprises, Inc basic corner desk is similar to Home Styles, but a bit larger, it is designed to fit a regular desk top computer. It has the cord cut out toward the back, and what looks like a drawer in the front is a fold down, retractable keyboard tray. Various designs and finishes are also available.
What I really liked best about both of these companies and their offering of corner desks, is that none of their pieces looked like traditional RTA office furniture that you would find at a discount store. But these were really stylish, nice looking pieces of furniture, a corner desk that could fit right in a modern living room.
