Working with 2 desktops and different files

Hi, I have a 2017 macbook air (currently still running on Mojave)

I know how to add different apps to different desktops/spaces (am currently using 2) but am struggling with the files...

Ideally, I would have one desktop/space for work purposes only. Yet all work-related files (like powerpoint, pages documents) I assign to my "work desktop" are visible on my second"private" desktop as well. It really annoys me. Is there a way to assign more than just apps to the different desktops/spaces?

Thanks, now kinda wonder why I hadn't thought of setting up two accounts on my Mac in the first place! ;-)

Still think it's a shame that you can't assign documents/folder to a specific desktop/space...
