8 of the best desks for your home office

With more and more people working from home, it’s never been more important to have an organised, tranquil and beautiful home office. Here are our top 8 desks, that are sure to meet all your needs. 

The Greg Natale for Worlds Away Desk needs no selling: its sleek, high end look says it all! Enquire via Regency Distribution.

With it’s white-on-wood palette and affordable price ($249.95), the Active Computer Desk from Huali (and available at Zanui), is contemporary, bright and just that little bit different.

If classic and white is your style, you can’t go past the Bedford range from Pottery Barn. This small version is $1,039 and should last you years.

Looking for a little laptop table for your study nook rather than a full-size desk? We think IKEA’s great value, compact, solid timber NORRASEN ($119) is the ideal option.

Jen has this large desk in her home office and everyone asks where it’s from. I can tell you it’s the Stationers Trestle Desk from Freedom ($449). What it lacks in drawers it more than makes up for in surface area! Even better, minimal assembly involved!

With a secret compartment ideal for tablet and laptop use, the timber Pod Lift Top Desk from Domayne is characterised by clean yet innovative design. Crafted from Australian mixed hardwood, giving it a rich and warm look, the price is available upon request.

Having been on The Block and Reno Rumble, Retrojan’s Isabella desk ($529) has had more than her 15 minutes of fame. With simple Scandi looks and three drawers, this is a very safe bet, whether it’s for the home office or a teenager’s bedroom.

Wishing to create modern pieces that give a nod to the past, Greg was particularly inspired by the striking architecture of the Colosseum and the minimalist style of fashion house Halston. “I like to work with repeat patterns, and the Colosseum’s iconic arches offered the perfect inspiration. I knew also that I wanted to create slick, streamlined pieces with a touch of glamour. A more recent reference for me is that glorious world of Studio 54 in its ’70s heyday, when a sleek, sexy yet minimalist style prevailed, embodied by the designs of fashion guru Halston, one of my perennial inspirations.”

Choosing to use materials such as glass and marble with gold-leaf finishes, the collection is the epitome of luxe opulence. Partnered with the arches of the table bases, geometrics of the dining chairs and rounded frames of the armchairs, the Greg Natale for World’s Away collection is the perfect balance of strength and elegance.

What a huge week for Greg whose first book, The Tailored Interior, launched on Saturday.
