Invisible home office: how to hide the workplace in different rooms - 18 ideas

More and more people are working from home. But finding a place for a full-fledged study or home office is not at all easy. Especially in a small apartment where space is worth its weight in gold.

Usually in such a case, the workplace is entered into the interior of another room - a living room or a bedroom. But if you want nothing to remind you of work during your rest hours, make your workplace hidden from view.

This "invisible" home office looks much more compact than a regular desktop. But, unlike tiny sofa tables for laptops, working behind it is much more convenient and beneficial for the health of the back, because it has the usual height and a full-size table top.

Do you want to organize a small home office in the living room, dining room, hallway or bedroom? Do you dream that it is comfortable and does not interfere with rest? We have prepared for you this small but very useful overview of convenient options - 18 ideas on how to choose furniture for a hidden home office in different rooms.

Five options you will see in detail. And to some we added similar solutions, but with the participation of other compact desktops.

We also offer a look at our past galleries: how to create and the series "".

invisible home office in the living room:

Let's start with compact designer furniture - elegant and comfortable. To arrange a workplace in the living room, a small table is quite enough, combining the properties of a console and a bureau. A pull-out countertop will save space, and small drawers will help keep stationery organized. Please note: this desktop was placed behind the back of the sofa. Usually it plays the role of a console, and if you need to work - a table for a laptop.

home office in a wall cabinet:

When there is very little space, hanging cabinets with a hinged door, which turns into a worktop, will help. You can easily place a laptop on it. Finished work - close the door and get compact cabinets. See 4 solutions, one for details.

There can be several such wall modules: one for the desktop, and the rest for storing small things, for example, as in this dining room (see the top row of the photo). If desired, you can use only one section, and then a small home office can settle in any room, even in the hallway (see the bottom row of the photo)

folding corner workplace in the bedroom:

Is there room for a home office in the bedroom? But are you sure that nothing here should remind you of work when you relax? An excellent solution is a mobile modular table (can be made to order). It consists of a movable working part, and a fixed part, where office equipment and paper are stored. You need to work - push the cabinets at an angle of 90 degrees. Done - slide them together and you have a modest nightstand without a single hint of a home office.

hidden home office in the living room behind a shelving unit:

If the living room or bedroom is spacious enough + you have a high rack, place your desktop behind it. This solution will help you to better focus on your work and at the same time expand the storage space. After all, you see, it is much more convenient to get the right book or folder right away than to take it out of the depths of the cabinet?

home office in the bedroom behind the sliding door:

If you work not on a laptop, but on a full-fledged desktop computer + there is (or is planned) a wardrobe in the room, use this amazing opportunity. It is enough to allocate one compartment for the workplace. See 4 examples of this idea.

The role of the countertop will be performed by a shelf fixed with reliable brackets or on a retractable frame. Under the shelf, you can place a bedside table on wheels or a stool.

If you need more space while working, place a table on wheels inside this compartment and pull it out as needed.
