But since the pandemic, the home office is no longer a luxury extra room used for home\/life admin purposes. It&#8217;s now an integral part of many people\u2019s lives. And many of us have been searching for home office ideas ever since, in a quest to create the perfect workspace.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Maybe you have an entire room available to dedicate to your ideal home office? Or perhaps you only have a tiny sliver of free space to convert. Rest assured no space is too small when it comes to setting up a dream office sanctuary.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A home office is a space where utility meets aesthetics. But too often the home office is a sterile, boring space. So I&#8217;ve compiled these home office ideas and tips to help you create a stylish and functional workspace. Let&#8217;s dive in!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Use of space<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"4fnfl-0-0\">\n<p class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"4fnfl-0-0\">Start by making a list of the ways you intend to use the space. Home offices often fulfil a range of needs for the whole family. They might need to serve as much more than a dedicated workspace for a single family member. \u00b7It may be a place where you take care of life admin, where the kids do homework, or it may be exclusive as your work zone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"6bnbl-0-0\">\n<p class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"6bnbl-0-0\">Once you have an idea of the required uses for the space, you can figure out what furniture and storage you&#8217;ll need. The non-negotiables will be a chair. Desk, lighting and storage. Setting up a shared space? Look into height-adjustable chairs and unique organisational systems for each worker.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Home office ideas &#8211; colour schemes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"ecqbb-0-0\">\n<p class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" data-offset-key=\"ecqbb-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"ecqbb-0-0\">But first let\u2019s take a quick look at some inspo for home office colour palettes that work.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>1. <\/strong><strong>Monochrome<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"2coq5-0-0\">\n<p class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"2coq5-0-0\">For a chic, simple home office that means business but is stylish enough to show off even when not in use, opt for a monochrome palette.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32311\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32311\" style=\"width: 1379px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32311\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052620\/home-office-simple.jpg\" alt=\"home-office-simple\" width=\"1379\" height=\"1721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052620\/home-office-simple.jpg 1379w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052620\/home-office-simple-768x958.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052620\/home-office-simple-1231x1536.jpg 1231w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052620\/home-office-simple-1200x1498.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32311\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/wJ7yGwz2-00?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\"> Photo by Denys Striyeshyn on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>2. <\/strong><strong>Back to black<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-offset-key=\"4vj66-0-0\">Black offices have a sexy appeal. Choose charcoal for walls, which is both dramatic and has more depth. With darker colour schemes, though, you <\/span><span class=\"adverb\"><span data-offset-key=\"4vj66-1-0\">really<\/span><\/span><span data-offset-key=\"4vj66-2-0\"> need excellent lighting to prevent eye-strain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. <\/strong><strong>Bottle Green<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"6rlrm-0-0\">\n<p class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"6rlrm-0-0\">This is a beautiful colour that has both a professional and fresh aesthetic. Team it with whites and some organic decor for a dreamy West-Elm inspired look.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>4. <\/strong><strong>Pinks<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pink needs only a light touch to avoid seeming too child-like. Add touches of cream and gold to add maturity to rose quartz. For example, a luxe office chair with gold detailing.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. <\/strong><strong>Colour pops<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>What\u2019s on-trend may well inspire you, but always go with the colours that speak to you. A colourful work environment is inspiring and fun and can inject energy into your space. Luckily, home offices don\u2019t have to be neutral. Hey, you\u2019re the office manager and you can pick whatever colour scheme your heart desires.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">An all-over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/au\/services\/commercial-painting\/\">office paint<\/a> job (walls, ceiling, shelving) can help enlarge the space. Or, apply bright colour pops to elements like chairs or filing cabinets. This can invigorate and modernise your space, especially if you choose unconventional colours.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32312\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32312\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32312\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052619\/home-office-colour-pops.jpg\" alt=\"home-office-colour-pops\" width=\"768\" height=\"1152\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32312\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/aG1Qw915toE?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\"> Photo by Kari Shea on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>6. <\/strong><strong>Accent walls<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-offset-key=\"br1s-0-0\">The accent or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/feature-wall-ideas\/\"><span data-offset-key=\"br1s-1-0\">feature wall<\/span><\/a><span data-offset-key=\"br1s-2-0\"> continues to be popular. Darker accent walls add depth and drama. Lighter and brighter accent walls invigorate without overpowering with colour. Don&#8217;t fancy a painted feature wall? Consider peel-and-stick wallpaper which you can change when you tire of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Home office ideas &#8211; styles<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Now let\u2019s take a look at a few stylistic options.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. <\/strong><strong>Minimalist<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is a timeless favourite that will never go out of style. It&#8217;s just so well-suited for the home office. A clutter-free environment always creates a stress-free, calm, productive atmosphere. All you need is a simple, minimalist table and chair, a lamp, neat storage units. Stick to a neutral colour palette, dark or light, and warm it up with a plant or some natural-toned soft furnishings.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32313\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32313\" style=\"width: 1379px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32313\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052619\/home-office-monochrome.jpg\" alt=\"home-office-monochrome\" width=\"1379\" height=\"919\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052619\/home-office-monochrome.jpg 1379w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052619\/home-office-monochrome-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052619\/home-office-monochrome-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32313\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/sGly599umCM?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\"> Photo by WebFactory Ltd on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<h3><strong>8. <\/strong><strong>Boho chic<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>At the other end of the spectrum from minimalism lies Boho style, where more is more and everything goes.

If this is your favourite look, think about adding feature walls in a dramatic, deep colour. Or, stick to fresh clean white. Add in a glass-topped desk, plush floor rug, gold or brass desk accessories, and touches of white leather and velvet. Chandeliers work particularly well with this style.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32314\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32314\" style=\"width: 1379px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32314\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052618\/home-office-glam.jpg\" alt=\"home-office-glam\" width=\"1379\" height=\"920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052618\/home-office-glam.jpg 1379w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052618\/home-office-glam-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052618\/home-office-glam-1200x801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32314\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/MNd-Rka1o0Q?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\"> Photo by Arnel Hasanovic on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>10.

If possible, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/au\/services\/cabinet-installation\/\"><span data-offset-key=\"3863h-4-0\">install cabinets<\/span><\/a><span data-offset-key=\"3863h-5-0\"> all the way up to the ceiling. You can then rest a ladder against them to optimise this space.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>20. Be an open book<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-offset-key=\"7vpru-0-0\">You might not be able to utilise your entire vertical space. But large open shelving is a must for most small offices. It also makes a practical and stylish way of maximising office space. <\/span><span class=\"hardreadability\"><span data-offset-key=\"7vpru-1-0\">Have a grid of shelves installed along a wall to provide storage space for all your office files, books and attractive knickknacks<\/span><\/span><span data-offset-key=\"7vpru-2-0\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"9pjd4-0-0\">\n<p class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"9pjd4-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"9pjd4-0-0\">Fill shelves with a range of colourful boxes and baskets for storing smaller items. This is both <\/span><span class=\"adverb\"><span data-offset-key=\"9pjd4-1-0\">visually<\/span><\/span><span data-offset-key=\"9pjd4-2-0\"> appealing and practical and gives the room a nice creative vibe. Painted white, bookshelves open up the space. Or you can paint them in an accent colour where they will offer symmetry and flair.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>21. Stick to what you love<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Peel-and-stick, removable wallpapers aren\u2019t going out of fashion anytime soon. If anything the variety of options available only increases by the day. Choose a mural, abstract pattern or a design that directly references your line of work. Either way, wallpapers are a fun way to instantly transform your space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re not sure what type of wallpaper to get, take a look at these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/bedroom-wallpaper-ideas\/\"><span class=\"s1\">bedroom wallpaper ideas<\/span><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/bathroom-wallpaper\/\"><span class=\"s1\">bathroom wallpaper<\/span><\/a> and even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/kitchen-wallpaper\/\"><span class=\"s1\">kitchen wallpaper ideas<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>22.

When filling shelves, the rule of thumb is to group like with like. <\/span><span class=\"hardreadability\"><span data-offset-key=\"eg82i-1-0\">And contain irregularly shaped items in baskets or boxes which give them a more uniform, tidy appeal<\/span><\/span><span data-offset-key=\"eg82i-2-0\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>23.

Grab an old metal filing cabinet for a few dollars off your local Facebook buy-swap-sell page. And give it a lick of paint to suit your d\u00e9cor. You could even paint a side in chalkboard paint for extra functionality.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32317\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32317\" style=\"width: 1706px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32317\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052617\/home-office-filing-cabinet-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"home-office-filing-cabinet\" width=\"1706\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052617\/home-office-filing-cabinet-scaled.jpg 1706w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052617\/home-office-filing-cabinet-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052617\/home-office-filing-cabinet-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052617\/home-office-filing-cabinet-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052617\/home-office-filing-cabinet-1200x1801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32317\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/cm1VjAmWLm4?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\"> Photo by Nirzar Pangarkar on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>24.

They\u2019re a way to express your personality and enable you to display personal items you cherish or find meaningful. Rather than just being for reading material or office supplies, you can use them to decorate your office with keepsakes and curated collections of items representing your life and style\u2014mementoes, little objets d\u2019art, tiny cactuses, generally anything you find appealing to look at (after all, you\u2019re the one who will be looking at them the most!).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The beauty of the home office is that you can create an eclectic, arty environment, mixing colours and patterns that personally appeal. There&#8217;s absolutely no need to worry about what others think.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Add little vintage elements that give warmth and visual interest. Perhaps a gorgeous antique rug, aged roll-top desk, distressed leather chairs, or a vintage lamp. Haunt the antique stores, church op shops, eBay, Gumtree and Facebook groups. The trick is to pair these pieces with brand-new items as the juxtaposition creates a rich, layered look.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32320\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32320\" style=\"width: 1379px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32320\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052615\/home-office-personalise.jpg\" alt=\"home-office-personalise\" width=\"1379\" height=\"2068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052615\/home-office-personalise.jpg 1379w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052615\/home-office-personalise-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052615\/home-office-personalise-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052615\/home-office-personalise-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052615\/home-office-personalise-1200x1800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32320\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/CW6ynEIgkEo?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\"> Photo by Annie Spratt on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>30.

So it\u2019s important to do what you can to conceal the tech clutter. Use cable ties or command hooks or a range of other solutions available on the market. This will remove the eyesore that tech cords create, and set up wireless charging stations where possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">For an easy DIY, just cut a hole in the back of an appealing gift-style box, and house your router and other ugly tech items in it, feeding cords out the back. You can also mount a power strip under it or attach one to the back of your desk. Another item of tech that doesn\u2019t need to take up valuable desk space is your printer, especially if you don\u2019t use it daily. Hide it away with surplus office supplies in storage.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"a6le6\" data-offset-key=\"2be5p-0-0\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span style=\"font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; color: #3a3d3e;\">Finally, remember it\u2019s a work in progress<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Don\u2019t feel you have to decorate your home office overnight. It may take some time to complete your look as you gradually incorporate items you love. It\u2019s more important just to start with the fundamentals and build from there, focusing on making yourself feel at home in the space. Once you have your essentials figured out (desk, chair, lamp, shelving), you can add things you love as you discover them. Most of all, your home office should bring you joy and motivate you to spend time in it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">I hope you\u2019ve found these 40+ home office ideas inspiring.
