This colorful home office should give inspiration to anyone who wants to get to work! The patterned wallpapered accent wall and coordinating floral draperies start the room off with a punch of color. The stria finished yellow walls give depth and dimension to the space. With the dark walnut wood tones in the furniture pieces, they ground the otherwise bright room to tone it down perfectly. The teal finished dresser accents the octopus artwork, bringing in a 3rd color to the color scheme. The homeowner loved the herringbone laid floor tiles to lighten the room.

Kitchen - Klemm

Marshall Construction

This is an extensive kitchen/dining remodel that involved the removal of a wall and moving a large support header to the attic. The customer wanted a custom oak desk that covering the entire wall of their home office to match the new kitchen cabinetry, large pantry, and hutch/china cabinet with glass doors. The kitchen includes pullouts for spices and trash, as well as a cookie-sheet cabinet above the double oven. The island has an under-counter space for a large microwave and a stainless steel and glass vent hood for the cooktop. The floors are tiled with a ceramic hard-wood styled tile that is very resilient to drops and spills. All our cabinetry is custom made with 100% true-wood (no MDF of particle board), full-extension heavy-duty pull-out tracks, and European hidden-hinges.

Home Office - Think Outside the closet

Sheila Rich Interiors, LLC

We created a home office in this townhouse by borrowing space from the garage and incorporating it with closet space. The U-shaped desk and file drawers were simultaneously custom-built and coordinated with the glazed natural maple cabinetry in the family room next door. File storage is conveniently and comfortably tucked into the corner; with the U-shaped desk following the lines of the newly-created room, nothing looks out of place and all of the pieces are a natural fit within the space.

Rose Cottage

Drummond House co.

Christopher Kolk This room was the original tavern when the house was built in 1850. It had dark cheap paneling and an almost black ceiling. I removed the paneling and sheet rocked the walls. The very low ceiling beams were painted white but all the character of the old wood was left to show. This room was always cold so I installed heated floors and 18" sq. porcelain tiles laid on the diagonal that liked like stone to keep the character of the room. The brick fireplace was old and dirty so it was also painted white with black paint used where the original fireplace and ovens had been.

Home Office Design Ideas with Beige Walls and Porcelain Floors

A home office has many uses and isn’t a mere luxury anymore. You might work from home, or bring work home, or you might just need a place to go through bills, mail or store important paperwork. Kids can use a home office to do their homework, or quietly play a game online. Browse the photos on Houzz for home office ideas and inspiration, and strike up a conversation with the architect or designer or your favourite picks. For more home office ideas, check out the Stories section.

How much office storage do I need?

To ensure your home office or study room isn’t buried under a deluge of paperwork, books and supplies, incorporate plenty of shelves, cabinets and drawers. Floating or built-in shelves with cubbies can stock books and magazine holders; or for a more traditional look, make room for a large bookcase that fits in with the decor of your home. Invest in a filing cabinet to store paperwork, and opt for a lockable filing cabinet if you have sensitive documents. A tray organiser can store incoming mail and will help prioritise bills. The type of desk you choose is also key to keeping things organised. Look for desks with deep drawers and plenty of surface space, and add tray organisers to the drawers to keep track of staples like pens, pencils, highlighters and sticky tape. If you want a streamlined look, find a way to conceal any computer cables or wires, too. One solution is to install a false back on your desk, if it doesn’t already have one.

How do I choose an office desk and chair?

If you spend long hours hunched over your work desk at home, invest in ergonomic office chairs with wheels for better back health and comfort. Consider optimal lumbar support with flexibility in adjusting handles and back angle. Most rolling office chairs come upholstered, typically in leather, but that’s no reason why you can’t have one custom-made to suit your home decor. When picking out your work desk, be sure to consider its overall function. If you work from home and hold meetings, pick an oversized, sturdy desk that is double-sided (can be accessed from both sides). You’ll want it to look professional, so opt for dark timbers over high-shine finishes. It’s also a good idea to create a separate study desk for the kids, so homework doesn’t go missing among your files. If your home office is for the whole family a two-person desk or built-in long work bench are more suitable. Where space is tight, look for a retractable computer desk, or utilise an awkward corner with a corner desk.

What home office decor will encourage productivity?

Use your walls for to-do lists: hang a pegboard and paint it in your favourite colour or be adventurous with chalkboard paint and whiteboard panels. Bulletin boards that keep the whole family in order are an extra feature that always come in handy. Use your stationery and office accessories – think pencil cups, paper trays and magazine holders – to add colour and pattern, and desk lamps, clocks, maps and calendars to personalise the space. Above all else, aim for ease of use.
