Desk Storage Solutions

A cluttered work space is almost impossible to be productive in, but what do you do with all the stuff you need? Check out some ideas below.


In an ideal world, we would all have a desk with shelves/cabinets on the bottom and at the top. Also, check out the baskets on top of the top shelf -- a great way to maximize storage space and still look stylish.


If you aren't lucky enough to have those shelves below, you can simulate them with plastic bin units like these. Just leave room for your chair.


This idea is pretty genius: Use a bookshelf to create two desks. Use the shelves for storage and the top surface for desk space. Notice also the hanging baskets on the side of the bookshelf, which allow for even more storage.


If you need a desk for two people, creating one lengthwise like this has plenty of benefits. it doesn't take up too much room especially with the mounted shelves) and you can keep all of the work space in one half of the room. Perfect for a shared dorm room!


If your desk really has no storage, like this one, try to place it near a large book case. With baskets and other storage containers, you can create a stylish wall of desk storage.
