Many people have also adopted remote work, so the home office has become an important place in our homes. Marrying function with comfort, farmhouse style is perfect for crafting a warm, welcoming and productive workspace. At TN Farmhouse Furniture we believe your home office should inspire productivity and comfort. With that in mind, here are practical tips for creating a rustic, farmhouse-inspired office in your home.
Pick A Rustic Farmhouse Desk
Your desk is the centerpiece of your workspace. Choose a rustic desk made from solid wood that displays natural grain and artisanal details. Our hand-made farmhouse desks strike a balance between workspace & storage options from drawers, shelves, even built-in filing cabinets, to keep you organized, and productive.
Seating that is both stylish and comfortable
Comfortable seating is the key to productivity and health. Buy an ergonomic rustic office chair that best game with your desk. Farmhouse-style office chairs: Our chairs made of strong wood and complemented with soft upholstery are stylish as well as comfortable.
Implement Natural Storage Solutions
Storage is key to staying organized and avoiding a cluttered home. Look for units such as rustic bookshelves, wire shelving and filing cabinets made from reclaimed or distressed wood. From rustic shelving units and cabinets that offer practical upside down gun storage to a more lifestyle aesthetic, our farmhouse furniture office line hits the mark.
Use a Neutral and Earthy Color Palette
Farmhouse decor is all about earthly, calming colors. Stick with whites, creams, greys, and soft pastels for a zen, distraction-free workspace. These colors can reflect natural light and lead to a more open and inviting office.
Improve Productivity with Proper Lighting
Good lighting has a direct impact on your productivity and mood lights. Use task and ambient lighting in your farmhouse office. Use for focused work a rustic table lamp and for all over-farmhouse-inspired pendant lights or chandeliers. Natural light from windows helps too. Make as much of this as possible by placing your desk close to a window.
Spread some Farmhouse Decor around to add a touch of Homeyness
Furnishing your workspace with decorative farmhouse accents gives it a more chic, inviting feel. How about stuffing things like, antique clocks, positive quotes on a wall frame, woven baskets, or botanicals prints from our rustic ornament home decor segment. These perhaps can elevate your mood and also spark creativity as you work through your day.
Enhance Comfort with Textiles
Add Soft Textures: They lend a sense of warmth and comfort to your office. Incorporate more rustic elements such as woven rugs, plush cushions and flowing curtains with fabrics made of natural fibers like cotton, linen or wool. This element of texture adds visual interest and improves acoustic comfort by absorbing sound and reducing echo.
Create Dedicated Zones
The best home offices typically incorporate different zones for different activities. Designate work space, storage space, rest space. Use rustic room dividers, shelving, or area rugs to visually separate these spaces while keeping a cohesive farmhouse furniture look.
Mix Modern Technology With Rustic Design
A rustic workspace does not mean sacrificing the latest technology. Incorporate function into your design by hiding cords within furniture or using rustic-style organizers to conceal devices. Our custom furniture can feature integrated technology compartments to ensure workspace cleanliness and lack of voltage crowd.
Bring Nature Indoors
Houseplants definitely add the aesthetic and ambiance to your farmhouse styled home office. Opt for low-maintenance foliage such as succulents, snake plants or fiddle-leaf figs nestled in rustic pots or mason jars. Plants cleanse the air, improve your mood, and provide a welcome splash of green.
