Home office floorplan help! 17x12 rectangle, doors/windows everywhere

6 months ago
last modified: 6 months ago

Hi there,

I'm having a hard time figuring out a furniture plan/layout for my home office, as all the walls have windows or doors on them, so it's a little awkward.

My ideal set up would be to have:

- Desk

- Bookshelf (ideally built in), and with some drawers on the lower part behind the desk

- TV with seating in front of it (for zoom calls)

- Couch (maybe same seating as above)

- Whiteboard

I don't really care if the seating is chairs or a couch, but would like to be able to have a space in front of the TV for zoom calls.

The desk has a monitor and thats it, it's really a table (now) but happy to change that.

Right now, I've placed the desk and TV where you see them. I haven't mounted the TV because I'm not confident in the layout.

I've also tried placing the desk with the entry door to my right, facing the windows

- This was nice to see the view, but felt a little uncomfortable having the door so close to my right.

I also tried with the desk and TV swapped.

- This felt very uncomfortable because the door was at my back

We've been through a whole home renovation, and this is the big straggling item, so it may just be fatigue, but I'm out of ideas.

I've attached the architecture drawing with some notes, photos of the walls. Appreciate your help!

Here are some links to home offices designs I love as inspiration:

(note: the console the TV is on & the coffee table are just in here for storage, not intended to stay, though either of them could)
