In this corner, every design choice has been meticulously orchestrated to create a harmonious blend of form and function. The sleek mid-century desk pairs elegantly with the modernist chair, creating an inviting workspace that encourages creativity and focus. The armchair, replete with a bold blue pattern, acts as a visual anchor, drawing the eye and offering respite. The tall, sculptural floor lamp in blue stands sentinel, its color echoing the chair’s fabric and adding height and drama to the space. The traditional fireplace with its marble surround is a nod to classic design, while the overall arrangement of furniture promotes a flow that is both practical and aesthetically pleasing, accentuated by the sophisticated choice of the soft grey rug underfoot.

We created an audio network of 15 different zones to provide a completely immersive and seamless audio experience. James Loudspeaker provided customized interior speakers that matched the size, and most importantly, the color needed for each room. This varied from an oak brown color in the study, to a mint green in the living room. Few manufacturers can provide speakers in any color like James Loudspeaker.

Overlooking the River Dee, this bespoke sitting room was inspired by the houses original Georgian style. It consists of alcove cabinets, panelling, bi-fold shutters and 'secret room' shelving and cabinet storage. The alcove cabinets were made to have inclosed shelving with a mixture of adjustable and fixed shelves to store folders and books. The bottom of the right hand side was requested as a coffee table height and the left was suitable to fit the office computer inside. Both bottom cabinets had wire cable access. The wall of panelling was carefully designed to all match the alcoves and shutters by using the same style of beading and plinth. The panelling was made from three different size frames and it incorporated the door to the 'secret room' as well as lighting switch for the room. The shutters were bi-folded and designed to look like a panelled feature once closed. We used magnets to keep the shutters together and stop light coming through once closed. 'Secret room' consists of enclosed shelves, open cabinets and a floating shelf above the door to maximise space for storage of more books. The alcove cabinets internals are made from real oak veneer coated with a hard wax oil, to give a great long lasting protection. The rest of the furniture are made from a combination of tulipwood and moisture resistant MDF spray finished to match 'Mylands Onslow 48'. All carefully designed, made and fitted in-house by Davies and Foster.

This home office features wainscoting, chair rail, and crown by Banner's Cabinets. The display/storage unit has fluted and paneled pilasters, a soft eyebrow arch with frame bead at the open display sections, and a linear molding applied to the door frames of the doors in the center section. The upper paneled header and lower display section are separated by a piece of crown molding. The upper crown continues around the room, and the chair rail serves as a counter edge profile at the cabinets for a totally integrated look.

Medium Sized Victorian Home Office Ideas and Designs

Whether you work from home or need a study space to get things done out of hours, finding room in the house for a home office makes for a valuable addition to many homes. Having a victorian home office can seem like the best of both worlds, but it’s important to keep in mind that this should be a productive space that keeps out the many distractions of home. You may not have the luxury of a dedicated room to turn into your victorian office room or home library, so choose your space wisely to ensure privacy and adequate storage. A carefully designed corner in your living room or an alcove can be made into a productive and stylish study space. Your home office furniture with the desk in the centre of your design, needs to include both work surface space and storage ideas – never underestimate how quickly a computer desk can become cluttered with stationery and box files.

How do I find victorian home office ideas?

For any basic home office or study set up there are just two essential office furniture items: desks and seating. If you will be a frequent home worker then you will also want to invest in nice desk lighting, filing cabinets or bookcases. Desks need to be large enough to accommodate all the tools of your trade. The material your desk is made from will set the tone for your home office design, whether you opt for glass, traditional teak, luxurious mahogany or affordable pine. Investing in a good quality task chair is imperative for the office – there are some great ergonomic chairs at every price level that will help to compensate for our modern, computer-bound lifestyles. If you have room for an office chair other than your computer chair, choose something comfortable but still supportive for when you need a break from your desk. Ideas that include a nice bookcase design and wall shelves mean your victorian study can double as a home library. For a truly luxurious home office you could consider fitted office furniture which will maximise the space you have and create a permanent space in your home dedicated to work.

How to find ideas for my victorian home office decor?

The right ambience will make your home office a place you enjoy spending time without taking away your focus. Choose a colour scheme that encourages productivity for you – that may be a palette that is calming and restful, or you might feel more inspired by bright invigorating colours and graphic prints. When decorating the walls, look out for items that create the right studious vibe for the room. Wall maps, pinboards that can serve as mood or inspiration boards, and world clocks can all be great options when considering office design ideas. Practical necessities like desk lamps needn’t be unattractive – there a range of stunning designer lamps available. After all your hard work to make this a productive space, clutter can be very distracting so limit the items on your home office desk to a couple of your favourite photographs and perhaps a trinket or two to stimulate the mind. Papers and office supplies should be tucked away, so keep the space tidy and maintain your office as a calm work space that promotes focus – all the better to see your lovely decor with.

How do I setup a home office in a small room?

A home office doesn’t have to mean a separate room – the nature of working from home involves compartmentalisation, so apply this concept practically to your space. Even a small space, if sectioned off properly, can be transformed into a great workstation or study area. Unused nooks are the perfect places to fit your study in a small room – place a desk and chair under some floating shelves. Even under-utilised fitted wardrobes can make an innovative makeshift home office desk space with built-in storage. If the room you have can’t accommodate a full set of office furniture, opt for versatile options such as home office desks with built-in drawers or storage benches. If you use a laptop instead of a desktop PC, you may even consider a folding table that can be simply tidied away when you’re done working or studying. Alternatively, you may want to leave the house altogether – garden offices, either purpose-built or converted from sheds, are increasingly popular as a tranquil space away from the chaos of home life. If it was good enough for Roald Dahl, it’s certainly good enough for us.

How do I create a victorian home library?

If the stuffiness of home office desks, swivel chairs and filing cabinets is too much for you, a victorian library space may be more your thing when it comes to study, work or even relaxation. Libraries are peaceful and quiet places, and with careful consideration you can recreate this in an area of your home. Books are obviously going to feature heavily in your home library design, and you’ll need a place to store them. A bookcase or nice shelving can create room dividers if you don’t have a whole room to dedicate to a home library, and the benefit of bookcases is that they are movable – you don’t have to stick with one layout it it’s not working. If you don’t want to take up space, shelves hung on the walls will work just as well, and if you really want that authentic library feel then you’ll have to go with built in bookshelves that stretch from floor to ceiling. Next all you need is a comfy chair in amongst the books or a desk if you plan to do work or study from your library. Remember that victorian library areas can be slotted in all around the home – under the stairs, in a corner of your living room or kitchen, as a mezzanine or in a small spare room.
