The purpose of having a home office is that of being able to retreat into a quiet and peaceful space where you can work and put your thoughts in order without being interrupted or distracted. It’s why certain rooms or spaces of the house are more suited to be transformed into a home office. It’s the case of spaces such as the basement or the attic.

In the case of the attic there are several advantages that are difficult to ignore. For example, the attic is a cozy and inviting space by nature. The pitched roof that most houses have provides a casual and comfortable atmosphere, the windows provide nice views, given the fact that the attic is the highest level in the house and it’s also a space that is partially separated from the rest of the rooms. This gives it a certain independence and it allows you to have a space of your own.

When designing and decorating your attic home office, there are certain elements that need to be taken into consideration. For example, the windows should definitely be an important part of the design. Any office needs lots of light. Natural light is the best so make sure you place your desk near the windows. Since the attic is a relatively small space, consider using built-ins to save some space. The rest is up to you. Maybe these examples can give you some ideas and inspiration.
