There are breakfast nooks, reading nooks, Nooks and possibly the most personalized, designed space is an office nook. With advancements in technology and the push to be paperless there isn’t a need for a large sprawling office; rather, one needs an efficient, inspiring nook to catalog the latest photos, blog about dreams and update social adventures on . Similar to the perfect triangle in a kitchen, an office nook requires a few simple ingredients: a tabletop surface, a comfortable chair, a vertical tackable surface and office supplies usually boiled down to a computer, pen and paper of your choice.
And, the best part, any space can be configured into the ultimate office nook. There is the traditional nook of a small space designated in a living room, kitchen or bedroom (above) alongside everyday activities. Or the non-traditional nook created in a seemingly unusable space under a dormer, in a closet or under a staircase. These non-room areas in your home are perfect spaces to reinvent into an office nook oasis; using architectural challenges to push your creative talents may result in an office nook that will delight you and your guests. Since you don’t have to designate an entire room to “the office” your living space will feel larger day-to-day and when you entertain.
Unsure how to utilize those dead spaces in your home? Here are a couple of my favorite, beautifully designed solutions.
