Making office furniture is a customized way of meeting your specific office needs. Whether it's purely functional or has some character, DIY office furniture requires a little ingenuity and even less time.
Design
A good way to start is write down what you need. After that, consider what you want and then find a middle ground. Also consider the size of the space that you will be designing the office table for. Can it also be used as the work space while making the table? Assembling all you need is much easier closer to where you will be using the office table. It's also a convenient area to store pieces should you step away from the project and come back to it at a later time.
Parts
It's as easy as a couple of saw horses and top of some kind to apply over them. It doesn't have to be fancy and doesn't even need any screws. Buying the adhesive gel caps used to keep glass table tops steady on the frames are ideal for making this desk. Add one at each end of a sawhorse and then lay the surface of your choice over them. The surface will stay in place. Keep it simple. Glass isn't necessary. A clear sheet of plastic cut to your specifications or even a flat board will do. This is your basic desk. A few parts total.
Customizing
Whether you are using the table as your work surface or as a presentation or storage space, the basic table is set. What you plan to use the space for can decide how you add some color to it. Keeping it as simple and DIY as possible would be just applying some paint to the sawhorses, or even just keeping the color they are if they're plastic. You can even hide the top and frame by throwing a length of colorful cloth over it. Since it's a DIY office table, it's a fairly simple piece of furniture/experiment. That makes customizing its appearance something you can do simply and quickly and as often as you like.
