This layout is perfect for those who have only one room<\/a><\/strong> to spare and don\u2019t want to sacrifice a guest space for a home office. \u201cHaving an\u00a0office\u00a0that doubles as a guest bedroom if necessary\u00a0is a great option for those who have limited space,\u201d says interior designer<\/a><\/strong> Amy Leferink. If you have room, consider putting the desk on the opposite wall to the\u00a0sleeper sofa<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to create two dedicated spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cUplevel your home\u00a0office<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0into a home library,\u201d Leferink. \u201cBy adding a bookcase or shelving you can tactfully store books and magazines while also turning your\u00a0office\u00a0into a reading sanctuary.\u201d In this space, the desk<\/a><\/strong> can either sit against a wall or float in the middle of the room to create a more elegant look and feel.<\/p>\n\n\n

If you are sharing a work-from-home space with your significant other, make sure you both have dedicated workspaces. Either set up two desks<\/a><\/strong> next to each other or create an L-shaped design if you have enough room. The\u00a0best desks\u00a0in this space are streamlined and modern. Anything too bulky could overpower the room<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Being a working parent can be difficult, especially when you both work and learn from home. In this layout, there\u2019s room for both an office desk<\/a><\/strong> as well as a small table so you can keep an eye on your kids while you\u2019re hard at work. The desk here is opposite the kids\u2019\u00a0play and learning area.<\/a><\/strong> This allows for enough separation to get work done while still keeping an eye on the kiddos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

05. The Office For Kids<\/h3>\n\n\n

Perhaps you\u2019re not working from home, but your kids are learning from home. In this case, consider a learning space that features both a desk area for homework and virtual learning as well as a table for arts and crafts. Consider a layout that works best for what your kids need each day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
