Custom Fitted Desks for Homes and Offices
Need a smart, practical workspace that fits seamlessly into your home? Our custom fitted desks combine craftsmanship with clever design to give you a working setup that looks great and works even better.
At MJ Kloss Carpentry & Joinery, we design, build, and install built-in desks and shelves that make the most of your space—whether you’re after a fitted desk for a bedroom alcove, a built-in wall desk for a study, or a full built-in office desk for your home office.

Whether it’s a built-in office for a large room or small fitted home office furniture for tight spaces, we blend ergonomic design with premium craftsmanship to create a workspace that works as hard as you do.

Why Choose a Fitted Desk?
Off-the-shelf desks rarely fit perfectly. They waste space, don’t match the room, and usually lack the storage you actually need. A fitted desk solves all that. We tailor every desk to your space, your work needs, and your style. You’ll get:- A perfect fit, whether it’s a small nook or full room
- Integrated built-in desk and storage options like drawers, filing cabinets or shelving
- Your choice of timber, finishes and colours
- Long-lasting joinery, built to hold up to daily use
Built-In Desk and Shelves
We often combine built-in desks and shelves into one streamlined unit. This is ideal if you’re short on floor space but want room to store books, office supplies, or display items. We design shelving to suit your needs, with options for open shelves, cupboard fronts, or floating designs.
Popular layouts include:
- Desk with shelves above and cabinets below
- Wall-to-wall desks with integrated shelving
- Corner desk setups with wraparound shelving
All joinery is made-to-measure by our experienced carpenters and fitted by hand.


Custom Desks for Office Spaces
If you’re creating a home office, we can help you build a workspace that supports focus and productivity. Think solid wood desktops, cable management built in, hidden drawers, soft-close fittings, and shelving that actually fits your stuff.
We build:
Full built-in office desks for remote workers
Compact fitted desks for bedrooms or box rooms
Twin desks for shared workspaces or kids’ homework zones
Built-in wall desks that fold away when not in use
Every project is fully bespoke. You get a layout that works for you, designed around how you use the space.
Built-In Desk Ideas for Any Room
We’ve worked on everything from classic home studies to modern open-plan living rooms. Here are a few built-in desk ideas you might consider:
Under the stairs: Great for compact workspaces
Alcove desks: Perfect for Victorian homes with unused recesses
Loft conversions: Maximise eaves and angled walls
Bay windows: Add storage and a desk without blocking light
Shared bedrooms: Create neat twin workstations with privacy dividers
Not sure what would work best? We’ll guide you through layout ideas, materials, finishes, and storage options.

Alcove Desks
Looking for a smart way to use those little awkward spaces? Alcove desks are a perfect solution—especially in older homes with deep recesses. Whether tucked under a stair landing, nestled between two walls, or framing a bay, these desks create functional zones without crowding the room.
We’ll tailor the design to your space: choose your timber, add built-in storage or a slim floating surface—whatever suits your workflow and your style.

Built-In Desk and Storage Options
Good storage makes all the difference. We’ll help you create a desk setup with the right mix of function and simplicity. Built-in storage can include:
Deep drawers for files or stationery
Cabinets for printers or shredders
Cubby holes for devices or charging stations
Integrated lighting, cork boards or whiteboards
Floating shelves for a modern, open look
Everything is custom built by our team, and we’ll match it to your existing style—or help you create something completely new.
