1. Semicircle Sheek
Did you know humans naturally prefer curved lines over sharp angles and edges?
Scientists think the preference is rooted in evolution. For example, sharp items include things like teeth and thorns, whereas curved images are perceived as safe and harmless.
Plus, circles are prevalent in nature — just think of the midnight sun and the winter moon.
Circles are all around us, and that’s probably why this semicircle-shaped desk is a favorite for those looking for a calming space with a large surface area that inspires flow.
Add an eclectic blend of colors, textures, and materials to a semicircle-shaped desk, and you have an incredible space for sketching, writing, and dreaming up your next brilliant Alaskan idea.

2. Tiny But Traditional
Anchorage, Alaska, is one of the best places in the country for remote workers.
The natural beauty of Alaska attracts adventurous souls. Mix that with a strong internet connection, and you have a remote worker’s dream location.
But when it comes to Anchorage office furniture, many of our clients struggle with finding a classical-style desk that inspires focus and determination and is small enough to fit into a guestroom.
Enter the tiny but traditional, like this bow front desk, which comes packed with high-end hidden features like file drawers that fit letter and legal files.
A “tiny but traditional” makes an impact — giving you a spot to operate an entire career while still being compact enough to fit into a guest room.
Just make sure your guests don’t overstay their welcome and try to launch a competing company!

3. Coastal Dream
You know how some people say Anchorage isn’t coastal?
We beg to differ.
After all, the Cook Inlet is tidal, with the water flowing between low and high tide each day. By the way, Alaska has more coastline than any other State in the Country!
See! Anchorage is coastal, and so is this dreamy desk, which blends a mix of coastal-inspired elements like:
Gypsum
Jute rope
Rattan
Bamboo
Blend those materials together, and you get a driftwood-inspired workspace that keeps you in a resort state of mind.
Perfect For: Ocean Lovers, Coastal Homes

4. Sleek and Modular
Do you need to build a desk perfectly suited to your space and life?
Enter the sleek and modular.
Modular desks of today have a ton of cool features like adjustable height so you can go from sitting to standing, and different storage options.
The modular components allow you to create a custom fit, no matter what room you need to fit it in.
The sleek worksurfaces allow you to spread out, and you can customize storage areas for when you need to hide it all away.
Choosing a hardwood such as cherry *featured here) gives you a warm and organic comort designed to inspire your best work while being durable enough to last for decades.
Plus, its timeless design means it won’t go out of style.

5. Functional Fashion
One of the great things about the Anchorage office furniture of today is that you can easily blend function with fashion.
Hello, new trend!
Although this desk looks like it belongs in a grand, romantic setting of yesteryear, it comes with all the bells and whistles of the 21st century that make staying charged up in the modern era a breeze, including:
Electrical Outlets
Phone Jacks
High-speed Data Ports
USB Upstream and Downstream

Functional fashion includes features like a drop front to store your keyboard. And locking file drawers where you can, you know, hide all of your secrets — even if they are just passcodes!

6. Grand Entrance
For some Alaskans, it’s all about making a great, big, HUGE first impression.
Enter the grand entrance.
Decking out your Anchorage office with a large L-shaped desk ensures you’re the power player of that first client meeting, interview process, or budget negotiation.
That said, a desk with such a grand personality also shows respect for whoever is on the other side by letting them know you’re the real deal.
Choosing an L-shaped desk also means you get a large surface area to place your computer and phone and spread out essential business documents.
Design elements like distressed finishes and wood panels paint you as a distinguished person who requires proper decorum for whatever meeting you’re about to undergo.
Need a grand entrance for your Anchorage home or office? We’ll take that meeting, at your desk or ours.
Perfect For: Traders, Lawyers

7. Tucked Away
Need a stylish spot to sit down and write your grocery list or do the morning crossword?
You may consider a smaller writing desk with quality features that can easily be tucked behind your sofa or placed in your kitchen or extra bedroom.
A smaller desk that’s big on style is a fantastic way to maximize the space in your home while adding some interest and inspiring creativity.
One of the needs our Anchorage interior design clients often express is to have a dedicated workspace to take and make video calls.
A tucked-away desk can be a great way to add a spot to sit down in an area where the background is important, too.
But tucked away doesn’t have to mean hidden.
The right desk can still be a show-stopping heirloom piece for any room.
Perfect For: Zoomers, Organizers, List-Makers
