7 Home Office Design Ideas For Small Spaces

Working from home has become the new norm, and finding the perfect spot to set up a productive workspace can be challenging, especially in small spaces.



Fear not, as we’ve compiled a list of seven home office design ideas for small spaces that will help you create a functional and inspiring workspace without compromising on style or comfort.

1. Utilise Vertical Space on a Small Office



When floor space is limited, look upwards! Installing shelves or wall-mounted storage units can free up valuable desk space. Use these vertical spaces to store books, office supplies, and decorative items.



Floating shelves are particularly effective, providing storage without taking up floor space. You can also hang a pegboard above your desk to keep essentials within easy reach and organised.

2. Multi-functional Furniture to Save Space


In a small space, every piece of furniture needs to earn its keep. Opt for multi-functional furniture to maximise usability. Consider a fold-out desk that can be stowed away when not in use.



Desks with built-in storage compartments can also help keep your workspace clutter-free, which is essential for maintaining focus and productivity.



Our Gatsby desk is a good example with special compartments for the laptop, documents and more.

3. Go for Light Colours to Make it Look Bigger


Light colours can make a small space feel larger and more open. Choose a colour palette with whites, pastels, or light neutrals for your home office. These shades reflect more light and can make the room feel airy and spacious.



Complement the light walls with matching furniture and decor to create a cohesive and visually appealing workspace.

4. Compact and Slim Desk Options


Choosing the right desk is crucial in a small home office. Look for desks that are compact and slim yet provide enough workspace for your needs.



Wall-mounted desks or floating desks can be excellent choices as they save floor space and give the illusion of a larger area. Alternatively, consider a corner desk to make efficient use of otherwise wasted space.



Laskasas have a plethora of desks in which the Belgrado or the Rosie desks fit perfectly as slim and compact desks.

5. Incorporate Natural Light


Natural light can significantly enhance the ambiance of your home office and make a small space feel less confined. Position your desk near a window to take advantage of natural light, which can also boost your mood and productivity.



If a window is not available, use daylight LED bulbs to mimic natural light and keep your workspace bright and welcoming.

6. Smart Storage Solutions


Keeping your home office organised is key to making the most of a small space. Invest in smart storage solutions such as under-desk organisers, filing cabinets, and stackable bins.



Consider using a rolling cart, like Laskasas' Pitt tea cart, for additional storage that can be moved out of the way when not in use. Keeping the surface of your desk clear will help you maintain a tidy and efficient workspace.

7. Personal Touches and Greenery


Adding personal touches to your home office can make the space feel more inviting and uniquely yours. Decorate with items that inspire you, such as artwork, photos, or motivational quotes.



Incorporate plants into your design to add a touch of greenery. Plants not only enhance the aesthetic of your workspace but also improve air quality and boost your mood.
