Infuse some colorful flair into the home office with wallpaper on the ceiling.  A wallpapered ceiling adds an unexpected element to any room and the home office is the perfect place to try out this technique.  Pick up the color and pattern of the paper in accents throughout the room.

Go light and bright with white and plenty of natural light, if possible.  Healthy daylight can inspire you to get work done; and for those that work at home, the well-lit office provides a connection to the outside world so you don’t feel entirely isolated.  Lighter colors and white are a refreshing palette for the home office.  Add a bold stripe or artwork against white walls for an energizing contrast.

Start your home office design plan with a color scheme, blending it with the rest of the house or setting it apart in your own style separate from the family.  Choose furnishings that are unique, functional and beautiful.  Add pieces depending on the available space, such as occasional chairs, ottomans, bookshelves and cabinets.  A small conversation area may be something you’d enjoy to relax between tasks.
