In this casual, cozy office, a mix of natural materials and contrasting metals provide a perfect juxtaposition to create a space where you’ll feel inspired and motivated.
A sleek wicker chair is the centerpiece, and a casual ottoman can be used by yourself as a foot prop or as extra seating for a guest. A Mid-Century Modern desk and contemporary metal lamp give this home office setup a tailored touch, and a wire metal grid on the wall above your desk is a perfect way to showcase photos, important info, small reminders, etc.
For a sophisticated yet modern home office setup, our designers love combining sleek furniture with a bold wall color.
Here, a desk with a wood finish and slim black legs will set the tone in your workspace. Drawers in the desk help to keep everything clean and organized, and a supportive chair with coasters allows you to be comfortable when you work.
Our designers think a bold wall in your office works great in this setup. We recommend Sherwin-Williams’ Hale Navy. Once painted, you can hang some decorative frames to create a gallery wall, too. Options are endless — you can print your favorite quotes or photos — anything and everything that inspires you is fair game!
BEACHY AND SOPHISTICATED
Combining neutral hues with lots of texture and a piece of beachfront wall art will have you channeling the ocean’s relaxation in your home workspace in no time.
A sleek wooden chair with a textured seat and a round marble table are a great multipurpose solution, providing more space to work than a traditional desk, plus a more unique look for your office.
Complement these pieces with a ladder shelf on the wall that you can style yourself with your favorite books, photos and momentos, plus a woven basket for storage and a beachy photo that makes you happy.
We hope you’re inspired to create a work-from-home setup that you love with these ideas from our DKORistas!
