I work from home and the only place to put my work area is in the living room. We wanted something to match the aesthetics and this desk in grey/white fit the bill! It is beautiful with a large surface and lots of storage space. The pictures make it hard to see but the side shelves have an open back. Which is perfect for us as it keeps the room more open.

One BIG downside- This thing took forever to build! I was joking that the next step down would be if they had sent wood and a saw. :-) It was the filing cabinet that made it so complicated, but once I finished that I felt quite a sense of accomplishment and the rest fell into place easily. Basically, give yourself plenty of time to build it. I had to space it out over 3 days and I think it took about 5 hours total.
