I live in a rather small apartment (LA is expensive!), so this corner desk was a good find. I got it in red, which I think adds a nice bit of color. It allowed me to turn an unused corner of our living area into a productive work area, though so far I've used it mostly as a storage area (mainly cause I'm lazy and do much of my remote work on the couch or in my bed =p ). My plan is to get a yoga ball, tidy up my space and convert it into my home office / art studio space. I work both on a laptop and occasionally paint, so this is handy for storing both my office and art supplies.
