The Perfect Home Office for Any Space

Working from home is the new normal for a lot of us. It’s time to think about your workspace in a way that gives you the most flexibility without intruding on your “at-home” space. Whether your new set-up is in the corner of your living room or you have a room all to yourself, we have some recommendations that will make your space feel new, fresh, and separate from the rest!

Add a Fresh Coat of Paint
The quickest and most impactful way to see a change in your space is to add a fresh coat of paint. We recommend natural colors that feel relaxing and classic! You can also incorporate an accent wall to help differentiate your office space from other uses of your shared space (we’re looking at you, playroom).

Spruce Up Your Wall Art
Find artful prints online or pull out some of your favorite photography to put on display. If you have to face the wall all day, you might as well make it a work of art. For an extra-eclectic feel, mix and match different frames and textures for the ultimate gallery wall.

Tucked Away for a Cozy Feel
In tight spaces, there are only so many places to go. Look around your home for a space that is ideally tucked away from the main traffic in your home. You know the flow of your home the best. Tuck your desk under an open-concept stairwell or give an under-utilized corner some love to keep your work and home life separate.

Add a Pop of Color
An easy way to freshen up your space is to bring in a pop of color! Did you know that Colorful Remedies offers refinishing services for cabinets, vanities, and pretty much any piece of furniture (*hint hint* your makeshift office desk)? Simply take a picture of the item you want spray painted, email us and receive an instant quote. This is an easy and cost-effective way to spruce up your space in no time flat.

Plants Make Everything Better​
Every home office could use a bit of greenery. Plants not only brighten up your space, but studies show they boost your mood, productivity, and concentration. We recommend adding a snake plant, pothos, or philodendron plant to your home office—they will bring fresh oxygen to your space and are super easy to care for.
