Light wood is great if you want to achieve a warm look whilst maintaining a bright interior space. You can keep an uncluttered worktop like this if you build plenty of storage for hiding bulky items like printers and files.

2) Simply monochromatic

Another way to maintain a visually light workspace is to play with a monochromatic palette. You can even add dark grey or navy to the mix to jazz things up a little.

3) Let there be light

Natural light is one of the luxuries that employees wish they got more of in their corporate office. It's no wonder since natural light has been shown to improve mood, feelings of wellbeing and work performance. So be sure to design your home office to get the most sunlight in.

4) Room for two
