Oh, what a week it’s been! I won’t get into things too much, but I hope everyone is adjusting to life staying at home.
I know that a lot of people are now working from home, and have set up at their kitchen tables or in any small space that they can claim as their own. That’s why I’ve put together some home office solutions to help you out while you’re working from home.
Our Home Office Solutions
Here are my four looks for creating a home office for you to work effectively at home in a great looking space. There’s something to suit every budget too! Each look has four items to get you started: a chair, desk, lamp, and some artwork to pull the space together and add a bit of personality. I’ve also included some options for small spaces too – perfect if you need to work from your bedroom or living room!
Working From Home – Look 1
Our first look has a real moody, industrial feel to it. This desk from Ikea is a great price at only £39 – just remember that Ikea will be online orders only just now. I love this faux-leather chair to add some personality, it looks much more expensive than it actually is too.

- Chair – Elgin Quilted Metal Dining Chair in Tan – £89
- Desk – Linnmon/Lerberg table in Black-Brown – £39
- Lamp – Casco Curved Table Lamp – £20 (sale!)
- Art – Autumn Forest Poster (30cm x 40cm) – £11.95
Working From Home – Look 2
Our second look is fun with a lovely blush and green colour scheme. This desk is great if you have a small space to work in and would look good tucked in the corner of your living room or bedroom! I love this quirky little lamp to add some style and personality – perfect for making this space your own!

- Chair – Upholstered Dining Chair in Pink with Steel Frame – £34.99
- Desk – Watford Walnut and Metal Console Desk – £122.50

Working From Home – Look 3
Look 3 is light, bright and cheerful with mint, blush and lots of white for a Scandi feel. This fun look would suit a teenagers bedroom – perfect for doing schoolwork at home!

- Chair – Lix Metal Chair in Green Mint- £34.24
- Desk – Jimi 2 Drawer Desk – £153 (sale!)

Working From Home – Look 4
Our final look is super sophisticated. I love this office chair for comfort and lumbar support, plus the brass and black combo make it stylish and on trend! The raw wooden desk gives the room a rustic look which works perfectly with the antique brass lamp and scientific butterfly poster.
