Refresh The Walls
Yes, this is the most evident and popular idea, which suits a home office, which isn’t a nook. And as usual, you may go with paints, stickers, wallpaper and much more. Accent walls or all the walls done with a new material – it’s up to you. Go for stone, brick, wood, plaster (this is a hot trend), paneling and many other materials that you feel like. Take some time to refresh this base – you won’t regret and will get a totally new space!

Change The Desk
A desk is the main piece in your home office, whether it’s a separate room or a small nook. Consider renovating the existing piece – with paint, stencils, sticker, changing its tabletop and legs and handles – such an idea will save your budget. If you don’t feel like renovating, go make or buy a new piece considering the amount of space you have and the style you like. If it’s a small nook, think of making a floating or built-in desk to save the space. if you have enough space, take a look at many desks that are on sale right now – there are tons of styles, colors, materials and looks that can make a statement.
