In the age of teleworking, it's important to be well set up when working from home. Whether you're 100% at home or just 1 day a week, it's vital to have a dedicated space. Here are our 10 tips for designing a bespoke office.

A bespoke office to suit your home

When you moved into your home, you may not have thought that teleworking would one day become the norm, so you didn't plan a dedicated space for it. You don't want to spoil your beautiful decor, and at Dessine Ton Meuble we understand that. That's why we offer made-to-measure furniture to meet your requirements. Designing bespoke furniture to your dimensions is one of the many advantages of our concept. You can adapt your desk to your space, however small it may be.

An invisible desk thanks to the secretary flap

Creating an office space doesn't mean cutting back on the aesthetics of your interior. You can make it invisible with the secretary flap. Your desk is hidden behind the secretary door when you don't need it, and reveals its best side when you're working from home. The advantage? Create a large office in a small space. You choose the size of your door and therefore the size of your office space.

A 2in1 piece of furniture: combining a library and an office

What could be better than combining several functions in your piece of furniture, both office and library the 2in1 piece of furniture is ideal for small spaces. It combines the aesthetic appeal of a large bookcase with the practicality of a desk. The eye is drawn more visually to the bookcase than to the desk, so your workspace blends into one large piece of furniture. The little extra, you gain in storage.

A practical yet aesthetically pleasing office space

You can delineate a space for your desk and surround it with many storage units to create the impression of a separate room within your room itself. Your piece of furniture becomes one with the wall. Choose strong colours to define the space and give character to your room.

The power cords from appliances can clutter up valuable shelf space in an office, so don't leave them lying around. You can dissimulate them within your office and get a nice storage space without electronic equipment cables spoiling your view by opting for cable trays in on your shelves, available on our online configurator.

A console that transforms into a desk

Creating a bespoke piece of furniture can sometimes be art as it allows you to disguise a desk into a small designer console. It saves space and preserves your interior design. This piece of furniture is possible thanks to the addition of a lift-up top and a secretary flap, the perfect combination for small spaces and occasional teleworking.

A designer desk in your living room 

If you don't have the space to create your desk anywhere other than your living room, you probably want it to be seen as little as possible. The trick is to blend it into the space. In this case, in a pretty bookcase with a pretty armchair for an extra decorative touch. The perfectly respected lines give an impression of continuity and the desk becomes part of the space without distorting it.

A desk with a sliding shelf

This desk with a sliding shelf underneath is ideal for hiding the unattractive elements of your desk: a few papers, the mouse and its mat as well as the keyboard. At the end of the working day, all you have to do is put away the sliding shelf and your desk is magically tidy. Ideal for daily or recurring teleworking.

A classic desk

If you're one of those lucky people to have an extra room for your office, you can opt for the design of a bespoke desk known as a classic. The advantage of a made-to-measure office is that it looks good, is the right size and, above all, has the fittings you need to keep everything in order.

An office in a wasted space 

Still not sure where to fit out your office? If you have a wasted space such as a recess in a corridor, this could be the ideal place. Design an office space to the dimensions of the recess with a secretary flap for added aesthetic appeal. Take the opportunity to add plenty of storage space above it and your hallway storage unit will be transformed into an office during your working hours.
