Home Office and Study Design Harrogate

The answer to the question is that it need not be ! A well designed desk, a beautiful home office or study should be the very place to enjoy working. The current UK lockdown has made  many people realise how useful it is to have a home office. A home office or study is a great addition to any home. At Inglish Design we find that most of our clients have a study, as many work from home. Whether it’s entirely working from home, doing a few admin tasks or the kid’s homework, more and more of us are looking to incorporate a study area in our home. Many homeowners are lucky enough to have a dedicated room that they can simply turn into a stud. However for others it may be an area in their kitchen, dining room or lounge, so a clever use of space is key. With thoughtful planning and creativity, almost any space in the home can be turned into a useful home office. If you’ve only got a nook or small office area to play with, make the best use of any vertical space available by building shelving units right up the ceiling and buy a pair of steps to access them if necessary. Also ensure that cable management and integrated task lighting is included if you’re starting from scratch with a bespoke built-in solution. If you are fortunate enough to have a room designated as a study then the key thing is planning the room. Often, if you have the space it is nice to include an area with a chair or sofa to relax. Frequently at Inglish Design, we are asked to make provision for more than one desk area.

By custom designing any space, you have the ability to bespoke design your home office to suit your every need. Filing drawers, printer cabinets with pull out shelves, cupboards for a safe, storage for stationery – whatever you need, Inglish Design can work this into your home office. We will consider the aesthetics and ergonomics of your space in order to give you the very best solution.

A real trend at the moment is building a home study area into the kitchen. Many home owners design their kitchens to be large living spaces. So as well as cooking, eating and entertaining, there often needs to be area for a desk and some bookcases. In other rooms alcoves can provide a great area to build in a desk and some shelving.

Bookcases are indeed something which Inglish Design manufacture regularly, and in fact they have become a core part of our business. Our bespoke hand painted bookcases can add a beautiful feature to any room, as well as providing storage. Have a look at some of our amazing bookcases HERE
