Multifunctional tables, sophisticatedly-designed ergonomic seating, sound-absorbing accessories: how to create spaces dedicated to smart working in perfect harmony with home furnishings
With the spread of hybrid working, designing functional and welcoming domestic spaces has become fundamental in order to maintain productivity and wellbeing, without sacrificing comfort and good looks. Over the last few years, proposals for desks and seating have increased, distinguished by their excellent ergonomic qualities, delicate lines and attractive upholstery, making them ideal for both office and home.
Home offices can be set up anywhere, in living rooms, bedrooms or even in halls. Multifunctional furnishing is the ideal choice for optimising space and guaranteeing maximum efficiency. Tables that can turn into accessorised work stations offer versatility, with everything you need at your fingertips.
In smaller homes, it’s essential to go for equipped solutions that combine cupboards, storage spaces and desks, taking advantage of every possible space, such as wardrobes in bedrooms or hallways, to keep things tidy and effectively mark out smart working areas. In large living rooms or open spaces, open bookcases can be used as dividers, serving to create a visual separation between the workspace and the rest of the room. This makes for an organised space and greater concentration. When it comes to tables and chairs, versatile models are available that can be customised to chime with the style of the home.
Integrating sound-absorbing materials is essential for improving acoustic comfort. These fabrics, used for curtains, partition panels and upholstery, help dampen surrounding noise. There are a great many solutions on the market, including seating, lamps and wall decorations that integrate perfectly into domestic spaces, improving both the look and the functionality of home offices.
