Optimized task lighting meets an ergonomic set-up

Task lighting provides optimal illumination, reduces eye strain, and fosters a pleasant working atmosphere. Paired with height-adjustable desks for ergonomic comfort, it supports productivity throughout the day. Adding small decorative touches, like a candle, enhances the workspace with a cozy and inviting ambiance.

A Comfortable seating area for relaxing and receiving guests

This cozy seating area in the home office offers the perfect retreat for short breaks, creative thinking phases or to receive guests. Soft pillows and a cozy blanket create an inviting atmosphere, while a round side table offers space for tea, coffee or inspiring reading material. A floor lamp with warm light provides pleasant illumination that invites you to relax. Plants or personal decorative items give the seating area an individual touch and contribute to the feel-good atmosphere. This makes the seating area a place where you want to linger and recharge your batteries.

A shelf as a room divider: Practical and stylish

A spacious shelving unit as a divider for your home office provides ample storage space, helping to separate the work area from the relaxation zone. It offers room for personal items and keeps the home office organized. This way, the workspace remains tidy and functional, while the relaxation area stays cozy and inviting.

The cozy relaxation corner

An inviting armchair in your home office provides the perfect spot to unwind or enjoy a power nap. Whether for a short break or working with your feet up, the chair offers comfort and relaxation. Soft lighting, a warm throw, and a large artwork - made with BJÖRKSTA picture frame and a bed texile -  in the background create a stylish relaxation nook that’s both functional and visually appealing.
