Work in Style With a Modern Study Desk

Late-night study sessions are always tough, but having a stylish study space to use can make them a little easier. The modern study desk collection at Pottery Barn Teen includes a wide selection of contemporary workstations with features like storage drawers and built-in cork boards. Invest in your academic future with great study furniture that's both modern and functional.

Teen Desk Styles

To choose the right modern study desk for your space, there are two important factors to consider: the overall look and the desk features. Most teen desks are crafted of solid wood and engineered wood, but some are painted white or gray while others are given a more natural treatment with a light wood finish. These natural desks have a mid-century modern feel while painted wood desks are purely modern. Consider the overall style of the room you're furnishing to ensure your new desk will feel cohesive.

Since these desks will be used to work and study, they also need to function well in your space. This collection includes four main types of study desks in various sizes and with different functional features. Some people may prioritize a large desktop surface over storage drawers, while for others, having plenty of storage is essential for maintaining a clutter-free space. Take a moment to reflect on your study style and it will be easier to understand which desk will fit best into your life.

• Modern storage pedestal desks have a classic look that will never go out of style. These desks come with four small drawers for school supplies and two large filing drawers for papers. Each drawer also has a built-in label holder so you can determine the drawer contents at a glance.
• Aside from the large table surface, the best feature of a modern a-frame desk is its two-toned color scheme. Color options include white tabletops with gold a-frame table legs and walnut tabletops with matte black table legs. These desks are available with or without storage drawers.
• Modern trestle desks have a similar look to a-frame desks but are all one color. Each set of trestle table legs features two storage convenient shelves. The desktop surface includes a built-in tablet holder and two lift-up tops that conceal spacious storage compartments.
• While modern wall desks take up the most space, they feature the smallest desktop surface of the four. These tiny tabletops are flanked by tall bookcases with open shelves, storage drawers or a combination of the two. Some wall desks come with built-in cork boards.
