Beautiful Home Office Ideas and Inspiration

Going remote? We’re here to help. Spending most of your time at home shouldn’t be a bad thing. If you have a remote career, or if you have to work remotely temporarily, having a beautiful office space will make you feel both productive and inspired.

Home Office Essentials

How do you make the best out of your workspace? There are some essential items we recommend having on your desk or in your workspace that can contribute to your productive day.

Inspiring Home Offices

Your workspace could be an escape from the rest of your home. Even if you have a studio apartment, highlight a corner to be your inspiration zone. Decorate it differently, keep it organized, and let your personal style shine.

Here is some home office decor inspiration that we love.

Paper Always Has a Place

We love how the magazine racks and holders have been mounted to make more use of this smaller space. A bar cart has been also cleverly transformed into a mobile storage shelf that is both functional and beautiful. The key here is to maximize your space by using the walls for storage and display areas for your work.

Wallpaper and Paint

Separate your office space from the rest of the home by using wallpaper to make it pop. Your space should make you feel energized and full of ideas. The combination of teal paint and this simple patterned wallpaper is a great idea.

We’ve seen many modern home offices using these simple metal wire grids. They make beautiful decor and are also useful for clipping calendars, light shelves, or notes to.

Breathing Room

Facing your desk to the rest of the room will help give your workspace some breathing room. If you don’t want to face a wall, this is a good way to be inspired by more around you.

Add a Gallery Wall

Give your office space a refined look with a fun gallery wall. We have some great gallery wall layout ideas for you here. You can create custom home decor using Mixbook.

The Center of Attention

If you are lucky enough to have a separate room for your office, placing your desk in the center is a great way to use all four walls and corners for more storage or additional furniture. Everything you’ll need is in close proximity to you. Also, notice how white and gold is a consistent theme in the furniture, to the lighting fixture, and to the frames! Two colors keep your decorating simple and easy.

Add a Statement Piece

Adding a statement piece of art or a large photograph gives your area some eye-candy and an escape from a busy workday. Just look up and enjoy the beautiful beachscape or abstract art and let your mind wander.

Go Green

Give your workspace life with real plants. Consider them your coworkers and treat them with respect! There are lots of low maintenance plants that can give your office a breath of fresh air.

Go looooooong

If you require some extra space for your office, use a longer desk with storage options like this example. There’s plenty of arm room and leg room for some one who enjoys creative chaos.
