A clearer space to focus.

Home-office storage and cabinetry that support your work, contain supplies and feel connected to the rest of your home.

Home Offices design inspiration — Design inspiration.

Begin with the work you do.

A home office for daily video meetings has different needs from a place to manage household paperwork or pursue a creative project. List the equipment, files and supplies used each week, including items that currently migrate onto the desk. The design should support that work instead of assuming every office needs the same wall of cabinets.

Keep the working surface available.

A desk becomes easier to use when nearby storage has a specific purpose. Frequently used supplies can live in reachable drawers, reference materials on shelves and archive items farther away. Printer locations deserve particular attention: paper access, output trays, cables and manufacturer ventilation requirements can make a tight cabinet impractical.

Plan power, cables and circulation early.

Cabinet layout and cable routes should be considered together. Identify existing outlets, network connections and any electrical work that needs a qualified professional. Make room for the chair to move and for cabinet doors to open without interrupting the working position. A shared office also needs a workable arrangement for two people and their equipment.

Bring daylight into the design conversation.

A screen facing a bright window or a background full of glare can make work uncomfortable. Interior roller shades may help manage daylight, while privacy needs can require a different or additional fabric. Solar screen fabric is not a reliable nighttime privacy solution on its own. Discuss the window orientation, working hours and desired view alongside the storage plan.

Make it feel like part of your home.

Choose finishes and hardware with nearby rooms in mind, especially when the office is visible from a living area. A mix of open display and concealed storage can provide character while keeping everyday equipment contained. Bring photos of the room, a list of equipment and the dimensions of anything that needs a dedicated home.

Good to Know

Your Questions, Considered.

Can storage and window shades be planned together?

Yes. The consultation can cover cabinet layout, daylight, glare and privacy as parts of the same room. Product and control specifications are confirmed separately.

Can a small office share space with another room?

Yes. Clarify which functions need to remain available at the same time. Concealed storage and a deliberate work zone can help a room serve more than one purpose.
