Think about how you work. Do you need a petite space to rest your laptop and a notebook during office hours? Or is a dedicated home office space with room for multiple computer monitors and storage for important files more your style?
Choosing a room begins with finding the perfect spot for your desk. Pick a place where you’ll feel settled and focused, like a room with a calming view of nature, or a quiet corner of the house. If you can, prioritize plentiful natural light.
Measure your room’s overall length and width, and then input the measurements into our at-home 3D Room Planner so you can make the most of every inch. To preview how office furniture will look in your home before you buy, download our EA inHome® app.
Once you know your space’s dimensions, you can choose a desk sized to meet your needs, then select a chair, lighting, and more.
You’ll be spending about 40 hours a week in your home office—decorate accordingly! Décor like artwork, sculptures, and tabletop accents, in addition to helping you look good on calls, can help you stay inspired and focused during your workday.

Take a look at what the furniture you’re eyeing is made of. Real wood, like oak, maple, or birch, offers superior durability and looks compared to assemble-it-yourself particle board or fiberboard.
At Ethan Allen, every piece of furniture is tested against rigorous quality standards. Much of our furniture is made by master craftspeople in North America, using techniques selected to stand the test of time. Click here to read more about our commitment to custom-quality craftsmanship.
Lighting isn’t just for video calls; it’s for illuminating the work at hand, too. Think about two types of home office lighting: ambient and task lighting.
Ambient lighting, like a chandelier or pendant, casts a glow over the whole room, while task lighting, like a desk lamp, spotlights whatever you’re working on. To learn more about selecting the best lighting for your needs, read our lighting buying guide.
When “work from home” means turning a corner of your living room, dining room, or bedroom into an office space, or rearranging your apartment, condo, or townhome to make more room, creativity is a must.
Think vertically for creative small home office storage solutions. Choose tall office bookcases, or select a desk with built-in storage such as drawers or a hutch. For all-in-one desk and storage solutions, check out our modular office furniture collections.
