Please help me decorate/organize/layout my very small office!
Comments (16)It depends on what you do in the office and how much you want to spend, but I would: Get rid of the rug entirely and leave the floor au natural, but add a desk chair mat under your chair to protect the floor. Add a few tall shelves or bookcases, depending on what you need them for (files vs equipment vs books) -- Ikea has some nice options that aren't expensive and are easy to assemble. I'd add colour to the window covering (different drape? coloured tie?) and then decide if you want art work/photos and/or a corkboard/white board. If your peripherals (like printers, etc) are small, you may want to consider something like Ikea's Kallax series, because they could fit in some of the boxes, while you use others for books or baskets. I wish I'd thought of that before I got the storage unit I did....See MorePlease, help to set, decorate an office !!!
Comments (4)Thank you so much for your comments. It's an office for two people. We are looking for a modern, calm and organized space. Unfortunately, in the simulation I did, I forgot a little detail: the electrical connections, telephone, Internet ... With the current plan the access is difficult. I am preparing a new plan that I will publish later. Thank you again and “see” you soon....See MoreNeed help on decorating home office.
Comments (10)Although you have some pretty furniture in this room, it doesn't look like an office. It looks like a place for leftover furniture. Might sound weird, but this room needs to look more like a home office. I would swap the desk and credenza like fissfiss suggested. Above the credenza, I would add wide shelving (as wide as the credenza), with at least 2 shelves, add books and decor, and above the desk I would hang a big clock. You should also address the rats nest of cords and cables under your desk. Unfortunately with that style of open bottom desk, all your cabling and cords are on display. There's plenty of cable/cord organizing systems out there. Any decor items on your credenza and shelves should relate to the purpose of the room, ie; work related. So remove the candlesticks. Not too many people work by candlelight anymore....See MoreNeed help with decorating home office
Comments (17)Ideally, I would have attached a work surface to form an "L" from the wall unit. However, your wall unit has two kneehole spaces which are designed as work stations. Why are those not being used and forgo a formal desk? I would move the printer or get a small one. They are so inexpensive these days to get a smaller unit for a home office. https://www.2modern.com/products/sequel-20-return?variant=34668476465197...See MoreFlo Mangan
