At Fairland, our teams carry out home renovations throughout South Bucks and the Chiltern Hills. We work on large-scale extensions, property redevelopments and new builds. As more people work from home, we have seen a considerable increase in home designs that incorporate thoughtful home office space. In new build homes, more thought is given to a room that previously may have been the size of a broom cupboard. Plus we’ve also seen major renovation projects utilising lofts, garages and outbuildings for the ultimate ‘working from home’ spaces.
So, in this article, we’re sharing design inspiration to create the perfect place for productivity.
Home Renovations – Three Home Office Design Trends:
Country Creative:
Outside some of the larger towns in South Bucks or in some Chiltern Hills villages, it’s easy to find a rural escape. If your property has a large garden or outbuildings, it may be that you choose a stand-alone home office on the grounds of your home. But country-styled design doesn’t need to be cutesy… It’s had an update for the 2020s. Wood finishes and earthy neutrals are still prevalent, but for a stand out backdrop for your Zoom calls bring the outside in. Choose a botanical wallpaper print, a selection of stunning succulents or some limited-edition prints.
Mindful Minimalism:
Cut out the distraction with a minimalist home office space. Incorporate clean lines for clutter-free concentration and monochrome colours for perfect productivity.
We work with a local joinery shop who can create built-in or free-standing cabinetry for all your essential files. Leaving you with space to work creatively.
Industrial Indulgence:
As hospitality and pub refurbishment specialists, we have often seen the use of industrial design in commercial settings. Over recent years this design trend has found its way into home renovations. Through 2021 we expect to see this aesthetic more specifically in the home office space. Bare walls, eclectic decor and vaulted ceilings are sure to help you become more industrious.
If you’re based in South Bucks or the Chiltern Hills and are considering home renovations or a new build talk to us. We’ll help you find the perfect ‘work from home’ space.
