In this age of clutter and frills, the more is better attitude runs rampant and it spills over into everything, so when you’re looking for simplicity in form and function, you might as well pull out your hair before leaving the house; it’s what you’ll do on your mission, anyway. That is, until you stumble onto the Bush My Space Edge Cobalt Single Pedestal Desk with Short Hutch. Suddenly, the world becomes a much easier place, and the air is a little sweeter.
Setting it Apart From Others
First, the design: simplicity, clean lines, attention to function and offering the best of good looks, too.
The choice of finishes are beautiful in the delicious Mocha Cherry, or the rustic Field Maple. It rises a bit higher than a standard desk, which is a welcome state that allows for higher position with your work chair, so you’re not cramped as you go about your business. The Edge Cobalt is a compact desk, meant for smaller areas while offering maximum work surface. Hardware is minimal and uncomplicated, complimenting both finishes and keeping the sleek lines of the desk unhindered and straight.
The Edge Cobalt desk also delivers further respite from clutter by granting a large cabinet space, big enough to accommodate a PC tower and keep it out of harm’s way. The mini, or short, hutch, is a finishing touch that is as thoughtful as it is utilitarian, with the option of being moved to either side for either right or left handed workers, or even placed in the center. This welcome addition allows for papers to be separated, files to be stacked, or stores office supplies up and out of the way, keeping the work surface clear. The single pedestal style is visual frosting, along with the door beveling, and adds just that little spark of something that keeps the desk from being too stark, elevating it above others in its class.
How I See This Desk in Use
Small and self-contained, I see the My Space Edge Cobalt desk more as a secondary desk than a primary, though certainly it can handle the position of first string. It has the makings of an exceptional writing desk, or one made for a laptop, with the hidden compartment for supplies, or a printer. It would be well placed in a home office or as an additional catch-all in the office of a CEO.
It has a charm about it that few can claim, almost fun and casual, while maintaining an air that smacks of professionalism. It’s stylish, simple, and bold, without making an overstatement or an understatement. Truly, it combines a blend of airs and lends itself to a great many themes or decors. Standing at 39.25″ H x 47.5″ W x 23.5″ D, it’ll fit in most spaces, including dorm rooms, and look smashing as it does so.
The End Verdict:
This desk is stylish, unpretentious, and austere. There’s a certain purity in its simple structure that speaks volumes and it’s a perfect companion piece to either you or your main desk. While it won’t dominate an office, it certainly will lend a touch of unadulterated style and class that you’ll appreciate for many years to come.
