Beautiful Office Space Inspirations

1. GET YOUR GREEN THUMB ON: bring life to your desk by keeping plants in your office (real or faux). We suggest starting with a cactus or succulents, both are low maintenance and do well in offices with minimal sunlight.
2. ACCESSORIZE: work seems so much easier when you’re doing it in style. Shop Bando is one of our favorite places to find agendas and fun desktop accessories. We’ve shared links to our favorite desk decor on the market now | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | (links to products)
3. ORGANIZE: staying organized can be tricky, especially when you are crazy busy. We find that it’s easier to stay organized when you have the right tools (it doesn’t hurt that they look good either). | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | (links to products)
4. SPICE UP YOUR SCREENSAVER: If you aren’t already following Design Love Fest, you should be! They keep our computers looking fresh and in season with the best desktop backgrounds. The Free People Blog is another great place to look for them too! We’ve picked 6 of our favorites and linked them here so you can download them for your own use! | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
5. MAKE A MOODBOARD: This is something we do for clients during the design process, and they’re great to hang by your desk to keep you motivated. Mood Boards help liven up your space with inspiring images and add a nice pop of color. (Moodboards found here and here)

When it comes to decorating your home, it’s all about creating a comfortable living environment that emanates your personal style. The same ethos holds true for at-home office spaces, especially if you’re creating an area for yourself that you won’t be sharing with your partner. Whether you work from home full time or simply want a proper nook for keeping your life in order (and maybe doing a little online shopping, no judgement), follow our ideas to create a productive office in your abode.

How To Make A Chic Home Office

Use Natural Light

 

Choose a room with ample natural light for an uplifting work space. Situating yourself near a window also creates the illusion of a larger room so you don’t feel as confined.

Get Organized

 

Instead of filing cabinets opt for baskets and boxes to store papers and supplies. Selecting options in a range of similar hues helps to make the space feel less corporate and more cozy.

Get Inspired

 

Hang artwork around your workspace to keep you constantly inspired.

Move Away From The Wall

 

Position your chair outward to face the room. This opens the space and prevents you from feeling like you’re staring at a wall all day. You can also easily pull up a chair if you need to have a meeting in your office.

Add Some Life

 

Plants breathe life into your space (literally), so a few strategically placed pots on your desk or shelves are well worth the minimal effort it will take to keep them alive. Opt for succulents in unique textures and colors for a fresh take on in-home landscaping.
