Below, you can find my favorite windowsill desk to get you inspired if you are looking to integrate a workspace into one of your home’s windowsills as well.
A white windowsill desk next to a vintage cabinet in a small hallway
The white-painted vintage storage cabinet in this hallway is built right next to a window with white frames. The deep windowsill is turned into an impromptu home office area which is small, but perfect to check your emails.
The mint green chair stands out in front of the white floors and white elements and the fresh green plant found on the desk finishes the look off perfectly.
Combine storage space and a windowsill desk to get everything out of your small room
The windowsill for this walk-in closet is created by a beautiful desk with storage functionality that spreads from wall to wall. The area underneath the worktop is kept empty on the right side to allow a comfortable place to sit, while on the left side, you can find a combination of drawers and open shelving.
Use the space underneath the sloped roof to integrate a work desk
skylights typically don’t have a windowsill area and the sloped ceilings usually make it a bit more difficult to decorate the room, let alone integrate a home office.
This small attic room, however, has a custom solution with open shelving along the walls creating a long windowsill that goes over into a computer desk, and into a bookshelf by the other wall.
Optimize the space in front of a full-height window
Extra large windows let in an abundance of sunlight anyway, so you can opt to cover part of the area in front of the window by placing a chair and desk in front of it without having to change or obstruct the view too much.
By picking out a windowsill desk in the same color as the window frames, both of the elements blend into each other for a seamless effect.
This long and narrow window is embedded into surrounding walls and provides a lovely view of the greenery outside. By aligning the custom desk to the walls, you can turn an otherwise lost area of the floorplan into a nice home office spot.
You can store all the things you need while working in the elegantly integrated drawers underneath the worktop, which is such an elegant idea.
An enlarged window sill turns into a spacious bedroom home office
In this cozy bedroom setting, a custom desk is attached to the window sill and fixated with brackets to the wall. Both the desk and the window sill are made out of light wood species, complementing the light color palette in the bedroom space.
Both the window and the windowsill are quite wide, allowing for long and narrow desk space to place your laptop and store away notebooks and other home office things. If you are working with an extra wide window, you could even install a longer desk, add another chair, and create a two-person desk in front of the window.
In a kitchen space with sage green walls, the area between the radiator and the window is used to install a wood panel resting on top of two white brackets. This surface is paired with a small stool and can be used as an in-promptu laptop spot.
A floating desk in front of a window with an angled wall
It was a perfect idea to turn the area in front of this bedroom window into a home office with a floating desk with a lot of space. The worktop is placed slightly lower than the original windowsill, allowing for a spot to place some books and plants in front of the window.
This cozy Swedish apartment with rounded windows (Styled by Emma Fisher and Annica Clarmell, photographed by Maria Sahlander for Bjurfors) has a cozy and delicate decor that is finished off with lots of textiles and accessories.
The living room has a subtle light grey wall color, which is paired with a white textured area rug and a dark grey fabric sofa to add some contrast.
The white kitchen with a white subway tile backsplash is contrasted by a dark grey wall color that is especially apparent in the dining area with the vintage wooden chairs. The gorgeous round windows in the apartment are especially noticeable in the bedroom which has a beautiful faded blue wall color and a small home office section.
Light grey living room walls paired with a dark grey fabric sofa
The white plank floors and white ceilings are complemented with a delicate light grey wall color that adds a bit more depth to the interior color palette. The white fluffy area rug complements the white floors, but makes it softer and adds a beautiful texture to the space.
The dark grey fabric sofa stands out against the light base palette of the room and is decorated with a beautiful mixture of throw pillows in beige and grey tones.
A white kitchen with an impressive white subway tile backsplash and dark grey walls
The white kitchen is finished off with a dark-tone wood countertop and classic stainless steel hardware. The walls are painted in a contrasting dark grey wall color and the full wall above the countertop is covered with a white subway tile backsplash that adds a beautiful, glossy texture to the kitchen design.
On the other side of the kitchen, in front of the window, you can find a small round dining table in light oak wood.
The table is paired with vintage black dining chairs and a subtle black pendant. The dining area stands out against the dark grey wall color in a perfect way.
The neutral color palette in the kitchen and dining area is finished with a green plant on the window sill and an impressive green branch on the dining table.
A muted blue wall color in a bedroom with a home office section
The blue bedroom walls really make the rounded windows in this setting stand out in an elegant way, while also accentuating the white trim and white ceiling in the space. The muted blue wall color is paired with a beautiful blue duvet cover on the bed and a mixture of beige and grey textiles to balance out the cool tones.
Next to the bed, you can see an antique side table in a warm wood tone, that stands out against the cool color on the bedroom walls.
According to Emma, one of the interior stylists of this apartment, the color used in the bedroom Krickelins Dimblå from Nordsjö, is similar to Parma Grey, Oval Room blue, or Selvedge from Farrow and Ball.
