You can make your interior décor much better using a kidney bean desk. It could be a Regency kidney desk, Victorian kidney desk, or French kidney desk, depending on what you prefer the most. Once you bring it home, the desk can serve various purposes like a writing table, bedside table, and so on. In this article, we introduce you to the different ways you can use a good kidney bean-shaped table at home. Let’s dive into it.


1. Console Table

A kidney bean desk can act as a perfect console table, especially because of its unique curved shape and slim top. Regardless of where they were made, antique console tables have gorgeous slim legs and several drawers. As such, it can act as the perfect console table in any home, complementing the rest of your décor. You can place it in the dining room as a bar or buffet, behind a sofa in the sitting room, or the entryway.


2. Bedside Table

Your bedroom isn’t completely furnished until it has a functional bedside table. It could be a small bedroom in a cramped studio apartment or a master bedroom in a massive home – you need a table at your bedside to carry the lamps and other accessories. With a good kidney bean desk, you will have space for your books, laptop, or vanity. You can keep smaller items like pens in the drawers and larger ones (like books) on the tabletop. Besides, you could hang a mirror or a couple of shelves on the wall for additional display and storage.


3. Storage in the Family Room


You don’t need a large desk (such as a secretary) to get extra storage in your family room. A simple kidney bean desk (even though smaller) can help you get additional storage space into your home. It comes with clean curves and lines that add a sense of scale to your space without being overwhelming. You may keep bigger items like books on the tabletop and smaller items (such as DVDs, games, and tech gadgets) in the drawers. Besides, the tabletop is perfect for displaying flower vases, family photos, and other types of art.


4. A Tech Workstation

If you ever needed a workstation for use with a desktop computer or a laptop, a kidney bean desk is a perfect example. You can put it in your home office or a corner in your living room and use it to accomplish a lot of tasks. If you are a freelance, the desk can come in handy in helping create a perfect workstation. Besides, the drawers are great when it comes to storing laptop accessories such as mice, keyboards, docking stations, flash disks, and so on.


5. All-Purpose Station

When you have a kidney bean desk at home, you can use its storage for your mail, keys, tablet, or kid’s school papers. It can hold virtually anything that requires storage space in the home. You can put a chair beside it and turn it into that space where you go to check through social media.


Conclusion


As you can see, a kidney bean desk can serve many purposes, depending on what you need. That means you can buy one confidently, knowing it will be useful.
