Frequently Asked Questions about Home Office Furniture

What is the best furniture for a home office?

The best home office setup combines practical furniture with ergonomic support to create a space that’s comfortable, efficient, and suited to your work style.

• A quality desk to match your workflow and space: This could be a larger home office desk like the Flexiline Home Desk (1600mm) or a standing desk or small to medium-sized office desks like our Studio Home Desk (which includes some shelving), Home Desk (1350mm) or Elite Home Desk (1020mm).
• A certified ergonomic chair to support good posture: Some great budget-friendly options include the Accent and Adapt (Black) models, while models like the Impact, Leaf and Comfortline Operators Chair may offer slightly more adjustability and aesthetic appeal. High-end options include the Pivot or Signature models.
• Add storage solutions to keep things organised: For example, a modular bookcase, steel shelving, drawers, shelves, or filing cabinets.
• Consider office accessories that can help you enhance your workspace and flow: For example, desk lamps, monitor arms, laptop stands, cable organisers, or even an anti-fatigue mat if you’re using a standing desk.
• For a larger home office space, you may also consider additional office seating, such as a couch, armchair, or ottoman.

Choose furniture that not only fits your home’s aesthetic but also helps you stay focused and productive.

What furniture is essential for a small home office?

Furnishing a small home office requires compact, functional pieces that help you work comfortably without crowding your space. Here’s what to prioritise:

• Compact office desks: Choose a slim desk that fits neatly into a corner or wall space. Options like the Elite Home Office Desks (1020mm) or the slightly larger Studio Home Desk (1200mm) are ideal for smaller home office spaces.
• Ergonomic home office chairs: A supportive chair is essential for daily use. The Accent or Cassie are both budget-friendly ergonomic chairs, while the black or white versions of the Comfortline Operators Chairs may offer more adjustability and comfort.
• Storage solutions: Consider adding drawers or shelving to keep your workspace neat and tidy.

What furniture is essential for a large home office?

A larger home office gives you the freedom to create a well-rounded, productive space. Here’s what to include:

• Spacious desks: Opt for a slightly larger workstation that provides you with freedom and suits your workflow. Great options from our range include the Flexiline Home Desk (1600mm) or a standing desk like the electronic height-adjustable StepUp Standing Desk paired with an anti-fatigue mat.
• Ergonomic office chairs: Opt for a mid or high-end ergonomic office chair that suits your aesthetic while providing comfort and adjustability. In our range, the Comfortline Operators Chair, Motion White, Leaf, and Pivot are ideal choices.
• Modular storage and bookcases: Keep your space organised with larger storage solutions like filing cabinets or bookcases that complement your desk and allow easy access to resources.
• Select office accessories that complement your workflow and complete your workspace: For example, suitable lighting, cable organisers, laptop stands, monitor arms, or even whiteboards and pinboards for jotting down and organising ideas.
