Home office ideas for Malta and Gozo

A desk that earns its keep

A home office does not need to cost you comfort or style. Start with a LAGKAPTEN desk, add BERGSHULT or SIBBHULT shelving and brackets above it, and keep small bits tidy in a FJÄDERHARV mini chest with two drawers.

An EKET wall-mounted shelving unit adds display space without eating into the floor, while a LOBERGET swivel chair keeps you comfortable through long working hours.

One corner, many jobs

A desk rarely does just one thing. A GULLABERG desk with an add-on unit gives you room to spread out, while a BRYTNING swivel chair keeps you supported as you move between tasks.

Keep paperwork contained in a GÄRDESGÅRD magazine file or storage box, pin notes to a FLÖNSA memo board, and hang a BONDIS wall clock nearby. A HYLTARP three-seat sofa and a KÄLKEN hanging basket turn the same space into somewhere to relax, too.

How much space does a home office need

Less than you might think. A compact desk can turn even a small corner into a proper place to work, whatever the rest of the room looks like.

An ALEX desk with a matching drawer unit suits a dedicated nook, while a MICKE desk fits neatly into tighter spots. Pair either with a LÅNGFJÄLL conference chair or a SMÖRKULL office chair with armrests, and use KUGGIS boxes to keep supplies out of sight.

A workspace that fits around daily life

The secret to a stress-free home office is a desk that looks like it belongs in the living room rather than fighting it for attention. Choose the MULLSJÖ oak veneer desk paired with a SMÖRKULL office chair with armrests, comfortable enough for a full working day.

An IDÅSEN cabinet with doors and drawers keeps files and cables out of view, a BJÖRKÅSEN laptop stand frees up desk space, and a BONDIS wall clock helps you keep track of time without reaching for your phone.

From office by day to games room by night

A room that works every day of the year is worth having. Set it up as a traditional office with an IVAR cabinet for storage and an ALEX drawer unit on castors that rolls out of the way, then let it shift into something else entirely.

An AFTONSPARV LED table lamp and an ISNÅLEN LED work lamp set the mood for gaming or film nights, and a HUMLEMOTT throw turns the same chair that held you through a working day into a cosy spot for watching with the family.

Bring colour into a small, awkward corner

Working in a small or oddly shaped space does not mean doing without personality. An EKENABBEN open shelving unit and a DOMSTEN stool fit into corners that would otherwise go to waste, while KUGGIS boxes keep supplies sorted without taking over.

A FLOTTILJ desk lamp and a HÅRSLINGA floor lamp bring warm, flexible light, and a LOMVIKEN frame or NOJIG organiser adds colour and character to a space that is entirely your own.

A creative corner with an industrial edge

A spare corner of the living room can easily become a proper creative space. An ALEX desk gives you a sturdy base, while a BESTÅ frame and LOMVIKEN frame add character to the walls around it.

A HÖGVIND table lamp and a NYMÅNE work lamp with wireless charging bring practical light exactly where you need it, and HARVMATTA boxes with compartments keep tools and materials sorted between projects, so the space tidies away neatly when the work is done.

New for the home office

A TROTTEN desk paired with a TROTTEN cabinet with doors brings a considered, grown-up look to any work corner. An ENKROKEN desk or a TRAVSPORT sit/stand desk suit those who like to move through the day, while a BJÖRKÅSEN laptop stand and a SKÅDIS pegboard keep everything close at hand and easy to find.
