If you're like me, you're well into that work from home groove. You're used to it — the Zoom meetings, the interruptions from pets (or kids), the loungewear work uniform.
You're used to it all, but are you comfortable? Does your setup work for you, or are you just getting by with what you have at home? Time to hit up Ikea and change all that, friends.
Desktops can get incredibly cluttered, let's be real. A pegboard will get those smaller objects off your desk, like pens, tools, and other little trinkets. Use the Ikea SKÅDIS pegboard to get your wall started!
This is a home office classic! You're going to need a LINNMON tabletop, two sets of ALEX drawers, and an adjustable support leg (if your desk is longer). I can vouch for this setup, because it's what I'm sitting at right now!
This small desktop storage unit is the perfect place for small object storage. It's deep and made of raw wood, making it the perfect canvas for some creativity!

This hack was a pretty complicated build, but it's totally worth it. This something of a Murphy desk built into an existing PAX wardrobe. Check out the process here.
And it's hiding something special! Using some BILLY bookcases, this setup became a faux wall to hide a work from home area. It's super chic! Check out the process here.
No options for built in, and no office to spare? Same. Pick up a KALLAX and create a wall where you can finally get some work done in peace!
You gotta appreciate such a bright, fun color on a desk, you know? This setup folds up and tucks away for maximum storage in small spaces. Learn how here.
Murphy desks are truly god tier in terms of storage and usability. This amazing hack uses wall-mounted storage to hold it all together, and the desk tucks away to become a faux picture frame.
Ugh, how comfy would this be to sit at? This desk uses two different countertops from IKEA to create a "T" with lots of extra storage from ALEX drawers!
Believe it or not, this entire office is contained inside a PAX wardrobe! A small MICKE desk fits inside it, as well as a stool and a pegboard!
I love the use of LEDs here! This is the idea setup for someone who works, but also likes to play video games after that work is done.
Here's how: "The speaker shelves are using metal furniture legs from Amazon (4") and the screen legs are the Capita's from IKEA (4"). I've found the wider, Amazon legs look a bit more solid/attractive than the IKEA's."
Work with what you've got, right? All this desk needed was a countertop from IKEA, and bam! Instant work from home setup! Check it out on Reddit.
Ikea's SUNNERSTA containers were designed to hang in your kitchen for tools and plants, but you can also use them in your office. You'll need to add something to your desk for these containers to hang from (this DIYer used curtain wire and some hooks and eyes). The end result is a quick and easy storage solution.
This chic, custom desk was made from a MALM dresser and a KALLAX shelf, allowing for maximum storage without looking too bulky or formal. Check out the full tutorial here.
