That's the perfect spot. If you have a 24 inch by 60 inch folding table or something similar, try it out there. The bench can be stored elsewhere for a few months.

The floor will need some protection from chair marks. Look around for a rug that can be borrowed from somewhere else in the house.

If it feels fish-bowl like, try using some $5 pleated paper shades that can be mounted on the bottom sill and raised to eye level or so when you are sitting down. Alternatively, a long tension rod and some sheer cafe curtains could be installed halfway up.

I'd vote for the tension rod and sheer or semisheer curtain. And something like a console table but deeper. Or, check out the blog Between Naps on the Porch. Recently She put a smallish desk in front of a bedroom window for a temporary office, then bought contribute a little bigger so she could rest her elbows!

Keep reminding yourself this is temporary. This, too, shall pass. You are lucky to be able to work from home when so many others are home with no work. You will have a nice view while you work and the privacy from your co-worker ( most important person in the world) will be to the advantage of both of you! My desk is always piled with stacks of papers and I never reached the paperless society Nirvana. Have you “shopped” your house for a suitable table? Maybe your co-worker can help decorate! This could be a good opportunity to have him/her be your timekeeper. “Mom, it’s been two hours. Time for a walk around the block (or a cocoa break or a twenty minute puzzle break). Hang in there.

Thank you for the advice, I don’t need privacy, in fact I like the light coming in and do have blinds that If I need to work at night.
I do not have any tables around the house that I can fit there but was thinking about taking a look at Craig’s list for old ones that I can maybe refinish.

Many desks and tables do not provide an environment that is ergonomically sound for computer use. The combination of your height, the chair's height and the table height are very important to prevent muscle and nerve damage. See this video before you buy any furniture.

If you do online meetings, invest in a green screen. You don't want your co-workers in your bedroom, virtually.

I bought a LINNMON / ADILS tabletop with legs (various color combos available) to use while I'm remodeling my condo and don't have a desk. Twenty-five bucks and when you're done you can give it to the 10-year-old...assuming he hasn't gone off to college before this virus thing ends. Or unscrew the legs and store it away until COVID-20.

That is exactly what I am looking for. Picture number 4 is probably my favorite

Chose these combinations as they seem to suit your room. Down the road could be used as a vanity

Weighing in. Love your bedroom, by the way! So simplified and relaxing, in a good way.

1. I also recommend a curtain hung half way. I really like bottom up shades. They have a clean look and you lower them from the top. You get the view but it hides your legs.
2. I cannot tell if you have room for a desk and chair. Can the bed slide over some?
3. Remodeling1840 is right. If this is temporary, an inexpensive table, sofa table, even folding table may be a better way to go. Search "folding table makeover," people are using paint and fabric to dress them up.
   Can't wait to see it! Keep us posted!

I would suggest to place a desk next to the bed (I don’t know what is on the left of the bed). Move the beautiful plant somewhere else for now and remove and the round nightstand. Your lamp can go on the new desk/night stand.

Put the bench at end of bed or against wall facing the bed and put your desk in front of windows- it’s a lovely spot. Get a desk with space underneath to place a small file cabinet. That’s what I did and I keep necessary items in there, I also bought a decorative basket and in that goes quick to grab items. It works perfectly for me.
