If you are one of the lucky ones that get to work from home, you know how important a designated space is to being productive and getting stuff done. A home office or simply an office nook are where you’ll spend a hours making kibble. Aside from the occasional day spent with your laptop on the comfy sofa. Let’s be honest, we all do that every once in a while.

Some of the keys to a functional home office for me are:

  1. Create a friendly space that you will want to spend time in
  2. Have a comfortable chair and a desk at a height that works for you
  3. Keep supplies that you need around your desk space and use organizing solutions to create smart workflows
  4. Have a door that you can shut if family members tend to walk in on important conference calls

To create that happy yet calm office a fresh coat of paint may just do the trick. Since moving my home office from the new nursery to its new space on the lower level I now have walls in a plain vanilla color that the previous owners chose. Not really my cup of tea and it is absolutely too energy sucking to get much marketing work done there. Alas, I am sitting at our dining room table right now. Time to change it up! Here are some beautiful, calming home office paint colors by Benjamin Moore that I hope will inspire you, too, to spruce up your work space and get more done.

Gray officeThe walls are painted in Benjamin Moore Coventry Grey, while the desk and shelf sport a fresh coat of Split Pea.
