Home Office Design Ideas to Inspire Productivity

Oct 09, 2023

Recent years have seen work-from-home (WFH) and hybrid work options explode in terms of popularity. Many companies offer some WFH flexibility, while others are completely remote. Because of this trend, people have had to adapt and learn the best ways to remain productive within their own home office. With that in mind, here are some home office design ideas to inspire productivity, courtesy of the pros at Steamboat Home Specialists:

Make Sure to Build In Storage

Having a clean, organized room will work to your advantage, as will a neat and tidy desk. A good way to make such organization possible is to invest in storage accessories. Whether you have shelves and drawers built into the wall or you have freestanding storage, you’ll want to make sure everything has a place so that your mind—like your desk and surrounding space—is decluttered.

Go for Calm, Natural Colors & Décor

This may be a preference thing and will differ for just about everyone, but the décor and colors you choose for your home office can play a role in your mindset. Many professionals with WFH experience prefer calming, natural colors. Whether that means natural-colored walls or actually adding some live greenery to your room, it can help de-stress you as you get your work done.

Maximize the Natural Light Within Your Home Office

Natural light is perhaps the biggest thing that can make your home office feel like a space built for productivity. Natural sunlight can improve your mood and overall well-being, so making sure it illuminates your workspace is something to keep in mind as you’re designing your space. Whether it’s with expansive windows or adjustable window treatments, you’ll love the effects of having natural light in your office.

Josh recently replaced all my windows and doors and I couldn’t be happier! He was communicative, very professional, gave great recommendations, and the end result far surpassed my expectations. I would highly recommend Josh. I had a great experience working with him, especially as an out of town homeowner.

I've worked with many contractors on my rentals, Joshua by far was the most pleasant experience I've had in working with a contractor! I've referred him to my HOA as a solid point of contact for any and all contractor needs!

In Steamboat Springs, Material is hard to get and most home companies are quite unreliable. These guys on the other hand were very good. Josh is a man of his word. His work is clean and solid. His experience shows in how he plans a project. We are very pleased.
