This lovely tiger maple secretary with the glazed windows and old-fashioned cubbies caught my eye. The writing space is small, it is one that you would need to do your writing either in a paper notebook or via a laptop or tablet, but the cabinet has deep storage drawers for hanging files on the bottom and display cabinets on the top that make it quite functional. It rests in a room, off of a hallway adding value to a small space. The clean lines of the space are very appealing and when not in use, you could close the secretary to hide whatever clutter develops there.

Would you be comfortable writing in this space? Let me know in the comments.
