Small homes are tricky to design and style because it’s hard to figure out how to achieve functionality without skimping on style. Not only small but also narrow spaces seem to be tricky to complicated in styling but today’s roundup will help you with that as we are discussing narrow home offices and ways to achieve maximal functionality there.
Choose Right Colors
Neutral colors visually expand the space, so if you have a small home office, this will be the best decision. Pastels are also a good idea for making your space bigger. If you have a long and narrow home office, then try some tricks to make it look wider. First of all, choose horizontal lines: wallpaper, art and shelves, to make the space wider. Second, make the further walls brighter or darker to distract the eye from the monotony of the long space.

Get Functional Furniture
Minimize the amount of furniture to declutter the space and choose only functional pieces, for example, desks with storage, open shelving that will make your space feel airier and wider. Built-in storage units also tend to save a lot of space but they can look bulky, keep it in mind. Use the windowsill as a desk or storage unit or turn it into a daybed. If you have a long and narrow home offic,e divide it into zones and place a desk and chair in one area and a sofa or daybed in another area. A corner desk can be also a functional idea, especially if it’s a shared home office, and you may add storage units separately.
