Layout tips for a functional and designer approved office.

The arrangement 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 creating a dedicated office space, these are our tips to help you create a space that works (pun intended) for you.

These are some of the most common office furniture pieces that you’ll need to account for on your floor plan with tips on the best ways to arrange them in your space:

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. Standard bookshelf depth is 12”.
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.

Remember, the best office layout 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 How To Design a Room.

What is the best way to design a large office layout?

Navigating the maze of spatial planning isn't just a step in your design journey—it's the secret sauce to making your space sing. Sure, it's not the glitzy, glam decorating part where colors and textures take the stage, but think of it as the unsung hero. Diving deep into planning means you're setting yourself up for a smooth ride, dodging those pesky"I wish I'd thought of that" moments. The more planning you do upfront will save you a lot of time (and money!) in the long run. Plus, having accurate measurements are key to successful furniture (read: treasure) hunting. Having your space measured to a T is like having a map where X marks the spot of your next great find.

Don't shy away from playing musical chairs with your layout. It may take a few iterations to achieve the perfect floor plan. Don't be afraid to try out different furniture arrangements. Mix, match, and move things around until it feels just right, reflecting your unique style and meeting your functional needs.

Here are some best practices to guide you in the process of designing a large square office layout:

Start with functionality and purpose: Begin by outlining the primary needs in your space and desired function of the room. Sketch out a plan that breaks down the office's different zones and their intended uses. Got a crowd to please? Make sure your layout can accommodate everyone’s needs. If you have existing furniture pieces you’d be upset to get rid of, make sure you account for these as well (their purpose is sentimental!) and plan around them to give them the spotlight they deserve.
Identify the focal point: Next, find your room's showstopper. The focal point could be a cozy fireplace, a window framing the perfect view, or an art piece that's all kinds of wow. Arrange the rest of the furniture around this focal point to create a harmonious office flow.
Consider traffic flow: Keep in mind the natural flow of movement within the room. Ensure that there is enough space for everyone to move around comfortably without any obstructions. Leave clear pathways between furniture groupings to allow for easy navigation — 18 inches minimum between furniture pieces, 30 inches minimum for walkways.
Scale and proportion: Pay attention to the scale and proportion of the furniture pieces in relation to the size of your office. Avoid overcrowding your space with oversized furniture or leaving it feeling empty with undersized pieces. Achieve a sense of balance and symmetry in the room by distributing furniture and decor elements evenly. This can be done by placing matching or similar items on opposite sides of the room.

By carefully considering the function, layout, and elements of your space, you can create a well-designed and functional large office.

When it comes to designing a square space, it's important to consider balance and harmony. Since the space is already symmetrical, you have the opportunity to create a sense of equilibrium and order.

What is a floor plan and where do I start?

A floor plan is essentially a diagram offering a bird's-eye-view perspective of your space. Like peeking into your office from above, floor plans help bridge the gap between imagination and reality so you can visualize how your space will function.

Floor plans can vary significantly in detail and style. Some may resemble blueprints, focusing strictly on delineating walls, doors, and other structural elements, while others might include detailed layouts complete with furniture and decor placements. This versatility makes floor plans an indispensable tool in architecture, real estate, and interior design, facilitating a clear understanding of a space's structure and potential functionality.

Accurate room dimensions are key when creating a floor plan. If you don’t have an existing floor plan or blueprint with dimensions (from your building inspector or landlord), you’ll need to create one. A trusty measuring tape is an indispensable tool for accurately measuring the dimensions of your office. It will help you determine the length and width of walls, windows, doors, and other architectural features. There are plenty of digital measuring tape tools out there. And while you know we love our digital tools ;), nothing beats the good ‘ol analog measuring tape when it comes to getting accurate measurements of your space. The last thing you want is a too-small area rug or an assembled sofa bed that can’t fit through your front door. Trust us.

Even if you do have an existing floor plan or blueprint, it’s always a good idea to confirm the measurements (you know what they say, measure twice!). Measure every nook and cranny. Note fixtures and architectural elements like outlets, plumbing hookups, and window and door openings so you have them handy when you create your layout. Every inch (or centimeter) counts.

Once you have your measurements, the planning phase begins. Pop those measurements into Spoak’s floor plan tool and start arranging and rearranging to your heart’s desire!

How to design the best flow in a large office?

When approaching the design of larger spaces, there are a few key principles to keep in mind. Firstly, it's important to consider the scale and proportion of the furniture and decor. In a big office, it's essential to choose appropriately sized pieces that can fill the space without overwhelming it. Opt for larger furniture and statement pieces that can anchor the room and create a focal point. Next, consider the layout and arrangement of the furniture. The goal is to create distinct zones or areas within the room to give it a sense of purpose and functionality. Divide the space into smaller conversation areas or functional zones, such as a seating area, a dining area, or a reading nook. Additionally, don't be afraid to incorporate bold colors, patterns, and textures to add visual interest and depth to the office. Large spaces can handle more dramatic design elements, so feel free to experiment with different styles and aesthetics. Lastly, pay attention to lighting. In a large space, it's important to have a combination of ambient, task, and accent lighting to create a well-balanced and inviting atmosphere. Consider using a mix of overhead lighting, floor lamps, and table lamps to provide adequate illumination throughout the space.

By considering scale, layout, color, and lighting, you can create a harmonious and visually stunning large office.
