Working From Home? I Can Help!
/Working from home (WFH) has become the new normal for many of us and some may find themselves living the WFH life indefinitely. Since we’re not sure about the future of remote working, I have a few suggestions to help you taylor a polished, efficient home office space that’ll keep you organized and inspired to do your thing.
Let’s begin!
Extra Space
Do you have a spare bedroom? If so, use it! No matter what size the room, you can make it the perfect place to add a desk, chair, rug, and lamp. If you feel up to it, paint a warm-neutral accent wall to help create a cozier environment.
I created two different mood boards that you can build inspiration from, depending on your design taste. The first, I designed with women in mind, while the second option has more masculine elements.
No Extra Space
Don’t have the extra space for a full office? How about the dining room? Find a corner and add a small desk, a comfortable, but compact chair, a small area rug to give the illusion of a separate space. You can also create this workspace in a corner of the living room, or behind the sofa, if your layout permits.

If you have a vacant window, create a niche office space with a floating desk and chair. Bonus: scenery and natural light!
