Top 5 Consoles that can double as a desk

We are totally aware of the massive revolution that is taking place these days in peoples homes with most of us having to work from home  for the foreseeable. So you need that space to work from home but don't really want to fork out for a massive desk you might never use again... so here is a great idea that might save you some ££ and also give you the space you need to work without compromising on style.

 Make way for the humble CONSOLE!

Yes you heard me! This simple table, if chosen correctly can sit in most places and function well as a desk without dominating the space or being a totally redundant piece of furniture once this is all over (yes it will!) So here are a few pointers to look out for  when selecting your new console/desk space. 

1. Depth - some consoles are purposefully narrow, and depending on the type of work you need to do might be an important factor. So get your measuring tape out and always double check it. 
2. Seating space - if you are sat at your desk for any length of time you will know that its important to be able to put your legs somewhere. So consider consoles without bottom shelves before any others. 
3. Storage - if you are going to be working in a space that you also live in, you need to be able to clear your desk and keep it tidy to prevent work from taking over your life. So get  a table with some storage built in or assign a space on some nearby shelving to keep things neat and tidy.
