I promised a friend of mine to create a mood board for her home office. Without filling out a detailed client questioner {which is important in the design process}, she told me that all she needs is plenty of hidden storage for office supplies {paper clips, hole puncher, notepads, etc} and a place to organize her files. She loves earth tones with splashes of red for a color palate.
Back to Olioboard I went to create my concept board for a home office,
{Click on the picture to enlarge}
I chose a large bookcase with a glass door cabinet that provides open shelve space as well as cabinet storage. The combination of open and closed shelves turns this bookcase into a versatile and impresive piece of furniture in the office. Selecting glass over wooden door cabinet gives the bookcase a touch of elegance without compromising function.
The desk has several drawers that can be used to store office supplies that are needed for daily use. A small filing cabinet serves a dual function as a side table. Storage bins placed in the bookcase cabinet can be used to organize photos, papers, even mail out of sight. A love seat in the office gives a sense of comfort and creates an inviting space for socializing with family members and close friends.
I love to create elegant and functional spaces. I hope you find that this home office concept board reflects that vision. As for you, my friend Safeya, I hope that I was able to “see” your needs in a home office and translate them into a functional and elegant design for you. 🙂
Have a great weekend!

You can not imagine how happy that makes me feel. 🙂
I am so glad that you like it and that I was able to provide you with a successful design idea for your home office. 🙂

Wow Lama, This is really me! I can hide things away, but keep them handy, so my workspace stays neat and tidy. Love the bookshelves surrounded by all the Arabic art. And the red love seat will catch me there more than my desk, I am sure. But, thanks for remembering my laptop on my desk, as I am much more productive when it is there, than on my lap or the kitchen table.
You are the best!!!!
