Most of us are often faced with space constraints, which require us to be able to make the most of every inch we have, plus open layouts rule the world. More and more homeowners are thinking creatively by shaking up integrated spaces, seen from the combination of several spaces, for example where the bathroom is in the bedroom, the dining room is in the kitchen and the library is integrated into the family room. Today I will tell you how to create a home office in the living room to look stylish and cool, especially if you are a man who likes masculine style.
Working from home also requires comfort, concentration and style. All of that should be realized in your home office with some manly touches. While choosing the flooring, wall color or covering and ceiling, you will need some furniture that will give your room a unified look. Where should you place your office nooks to make the most of it? Let’s see some of the coolest ideas to choose in your living room!
Behind the Sofa
The space behind the sofa is often overlooked and underutilized, but this narrow space is actually perfect for a man’s home office nook. Place a desk you like there, perhaps a sleek mahogany desk with embellishments and drawers, or a modern desk with a glass top and metal legs for an edgy look. If you’re looking to save space, a cool wall-mounted top is all you need. However, if you want a more subdued, unified look, match the desk to the space and find chairs that match.
Other Placements
Another equally cool idea is to place the desk near a window or in a corner near a window. That way, the work desk will get as much light as possible, and if the desk is behind the sofa, the results will be better. Place the home office corner on the living room wall, making it completely floating using shelves with enough light coming in. In such cases, placing the desk requires perfect integration, you should find some of the right furniture, the same color and style are the best choices.
Furniture and Décor
As we already know, a desk is the main piece of furniture in any home office because you can’t work without it. So, choose the right furniture that is as comfortable as possible. Another must-have item is a chair that is also very comfortable. Open shelves or wall-mounted shelves are needed to store all the items you need and display your collection. Place your desk near a living room chair or sofa, think of a hanging lounge chair to relax, and some eye-catching lamps or pendant lights that match your decorating style. Complete it with a gallery wall, a comfortable rug, a statement piece of art, a coffee table with some decorations, and see the results!
