Home offices are now a staple part of the average household, whether that’s for putting in extra hours outside the office or for building your own empire. We expect a lot from our home workspaces, not only because they are a place where we sink many precious hours, but because they must achieve a seamless existence with our beloved home life. This selection of 40 home offices not only deliver functionality but serve with style. From spacious and luxurious home offices that look fit for a mogul, to compact and cosy workspaces for fresh-faced entrepreneurs, these designs offer every inch of inspiration. We’ll look at boho workspaces, Scandi style studies, simply sophisticated office spaces, and much more.
Visualizer:
Step into my creative space. A centrally placed desk projects an invitation for collaboration. Set chairs out along the opposite side of your desk to make room for guests, idea-sharing, and partnership.
Visualizer:
Be inspired by nature. An independent home office space or artist studio can leave an individual cut off from the world. Reconnect with the outdoors with an attached courtyard, vertical garden wall, or even a realistic botanical mural.
Visualizer:
Calm and serene. White decor lays a peaceful foundation for a busy working day, but can sometimes fall a little flat. Add interest and high-end styling with a chic desk design and a marble feature wall.
Visualizer:
It’s all in the stucco. Add interest to a tiny home office by creating interesting “architectural” details within the wall stucco. An awkward alcove can become a bank of uniform display nooks, an uninspired doorway can become an elegant archway.
Visualizer:
Hidden storage. Bespoke cabinets mean that office paraphernalia can be concealed from sight without cluttering the room with office furniture. Install the cabinets in an end-to-end arrangement that wraps the doorframe to go fully incognito.
Designer:
Modern and minimal. White cabinets on a white background produce a clean and minimalistic aesthetic. Warm through with a natural wood worktop and matching wooden flooring.
Designer:
Dark, dramatic and oh-so-sophisticated, this powerful home office design really means business.

Large and in charge. These three desk chairs have a similar brown leather aesthetic, but it’s clear to all which one is in command.

Alternatively, you could hang a huge weapons display to instil respect or a tinge of fear into all who enter your domain!
Visualizer:
Back to the drawing board. Consider every aspect of your daily working needs before embarking upon a desk purchase. Would a tilting worktop, open shelving, filing drawers or media storage make your tasks run more smoothly? Make a wish list before browsing.
Architect:
Every inch an office. This inspirational home workspace has been fashioned to serve with every inch–right from the staircase balustrade.
Designer:
Encased and cosy. A narrow courtyard filters natural light into this small home office design, whilst fully wood-clad walls and matching wooden furniture build a cosy cocoon.
Designer:
Use vertical space in a small office room. Upper cabinets will be your best friend in keeping clutter at bay.

Simply Scandi. White base decor, black accents, simple lines and a plethora of plants fashion a cool Scandinavian home office aesthetic.

Accessorise with colour. From colour-changing LED desk lights and eye-catching keyboards to art prints and sculpture, a workday doesn’t have to be dull.
Photographer:
Enjoy a glow whilst you’re on the go. Hang string lights around the perimeter of your workspace to ignite magical vibes.
Visualizer:
Tiny spaces can make big statements. Think unique desks, statement lamps, and accent chairs.
