Whether you’re looking to add some flair to your home office or you’re in serious need of inspiration to help you finally declutter your desk, we’ve rounded up a list of great minimal desk setup ideas that don’t compromise in the style department. This is an excellent choice for those who are working in spaces with funky angles or odd corners that normally don’t accommodate flat, rectangular desks. Instead, consider a custom-built that will fit your unique space. “One innovative minimalist solution is to hang a metal wall grid or peg board in front of or behind your desk, depending on which direction the desk faces. Wall grids can be customized in a variety of ways with add-ons like shelves, racks, hooks, and clips, which allows you to create more space for things like calendars, clipboards, books, pencils, and pens,” says Eileen Roth, author of Organizing for Dummies. “You can also add inspirational minimalist quotes, fairy lights, or even small succulents for a tiny pop of color!” You can also add a natural wood lid to cover the top tray, which comes in handy in two ways: it covers up office stuff you don’t want to be seen and gives you an additional flat surface to work on! Instead, Houghton suggests that you go for something lighter, such as L-shaped or U-shaped desks. These desks are very easy to move around, and you can squeeze them into any corner of your room without making it look crowded.
