Design tips for decorating a trendy style office
Here’s how to achieve the trendy aesthetic room of your dreams.What’s the best way to design and decorate a trendy office?
The design of your workspace can be as crucial to your productivity as your morning cup of coffee. Whether you're carving out a corner in an open-concept living room or in the process of a remodel to create a dedicated office space, these are our tips to help you create a space that works (pun intended) for you:
- Desk & Chair: The cornerstone of any office, your desk provides a designated workspace for your computer, monitor, books, and other essentials. It often serves as the focal point of an office or study, so place it where it best suits your workflow, ideally near natural light to boost mood and productivity.
- Bookshelves or Storage: Every office needs storage. The material you choose for your storage can really help lean into the desired trendy style of your workspace.
- Seating: Extra seating options, like an accent armchair, or sofa can add a cozy touch and provide a spot for guests or a change of scenery for you. Position these to encourage conversation without disrupting your work zone.
- Area Rug: An area rug adds warmth and can define a workspace within a larger room. Place it under your desk and chair to anchor the space, ensuring it's large enough to allow for easy chair movement.
- Paint or Wallpaper: Select a color or pattern that sets the desired mood for the office and complements the trendy style you want to achieve. We are partial to covering walls, ceilings, and trim in a uniform paint color to create a cohesive look. Or consider an accent wall behind the desk to serve as a focal point.
- Decorative Lighting: Combine task, ambient, and accent lighting for a layered lighting scheme. A desk lamp is common for those late work nights burning the midnight oil. Consider the placement of lighting fixtures to eliminate shadows and evenly light the space. Dimmer switches can adjust the mood.
- Curtains or Blinds: Window treatments not only help control the light and provide privacy but also serve to tie the room's design together. They offer an opportunity to inject color, texture, and pattern into the living space, making it more inviting and personalized. Whether flowing and sheer for a light, airy feel or rich and textured for a more luxurious look, curtains play a pivotal role in setting the tone and atmosphere of the office. Don’t forget the curtain rod!
Remember, the best office design is one that reflects your personal work style and needs. Experiment with different arrangements until you find the perfect balance of functionality and comfort. If you need an extra hand, check out our step-by-step guide on Home Office Design.
What materials and home decor should I use to achieve a trendy office design?
Unlike traditional and defined design styles, trendy interiors are ever changing. Just like in fashion, interior design trends come and go. Some trends become modern traditions (looking at you, shiplap), others become outdated, serving as nostalgic reminders of past design periods.
To infuse your office with a trendy vibe, you’ll need to keep your pulse on current and up-and-coming design movements. Stay up-to-date with the latest design publications, HGTV shows, social media platforms, and influential design shows. Incorporating trendy elements into your decor could mean experimenting with the color of the year or integrating furniture and accessories that reflect cutting-edge materials and forms. Trendy design is not just about superficial aesthetics but also about embodying the zeitgeist, from sustainability-focused materials to tech-integrated furnishings, ensuring your space not only looks current but also aligns with contemporary values and lifestyles.
Word to the wise: The key to incorporating trends is balance. Blending trendy furniture and decor with classic elements can ensure your space has staying power and doesn’t look like a time capsule a decade later.
