Working from home has gained popularity, emphasizing the need for functional home offices.
With the rise of computers and the internet, working from home has become increasingly common. The most recent pandemic further highlighted the need for a comfortable and functional home office.
Working from home offers numerous benefits, such as flexible schedules, a familiar work environment, and reduced commuting. However, it can also bring challenges like difficulty concentrating, family interruptions, and limited space. Fortunately, there are solutions, and creating an effective home office is more straightforward than it may seem.
Remodeling your home office with Policrete is a practical choice. We deliver our proprietary surface systems—resin-based and panel-based—to create seamless finishes across floors, walls, and countertops within the scope we take on. We can refinish key surfaces to align with your layout and finish direction, with color and texture options selected to support the overall design. In many remodel scenarios, the process can reduce the need for full demolition, depending on the existing substrate and project requirements.
The first step is to create a workspace that reflects your style, whether it's simple and comfortable, classic and modern, or eclectic and bold. Enhancing your office environment can support motivation, creativity, and focus. The right arrangement of space, light, airflow, and natural details matters in a productive home office.
Considerations for your home office include:
• Storage Space: Determine how much storage you require for documents and supplies.
• Furniture: Choose functional and comfortable furniture. Ensure your desk and chair support your work needs and posture.
• Backgrounds for Conference Calls: A tidy and professional background is important for virtual meetings.
Even a minimalist space should have adequate shelving and cabinets, but avoid overcrowding the room with too much furniture. Balance is key.
An easy-to-clean office is essential. Policrete floors are a durable, low-maintenance option when specified correctly. They can offer a similar aesthetic to traditional microcement, with a finish designed to hold up to day-to-day use.
Creative Ideas for Your Home Office
If you have a dedicated room for your office, let your interior design ideas guide the space. Consider incorporating Policrete flooring not only on floors but also as a refined wall feature. Pair it with modern art or bookshelves to create a warm, composed environment. Combining wood with cement-look surfaces can add warmth and depth to a modern space.
If your office space is part of a living room or another area, don’t worry. Even small spaces can be shaped into efficient, modern workspaces with the right materials and planning. Policrete liquid cement, available in a range of colors and textures, can help compact offices feel more open. Light-toned materials can visually expand the space, creating a clearer sense of volume.
When designing your home office, choose a calming palette. Neutral grays, beiges, and soft pastels can support focus and reduce visual noise, making them a solid choice for a productive work environment. Use bold, high-saturation colors with intention, as they can be visually distracting in a work zone.
At Policrete, we understand the importance of a comfortable, modern office environment. Our material offers a seamless finish that supports a clean, cohesive workspace. With a considered range of color options, you can align the surface to your broader interior palette while keeping the room professional and calm. Our materials are selected for durability, long-term use, and a refined visual result.
A key aspect of designing a successful home office is making the most of the space you have. Policrete can help smaller areas read as more continuous and visually calm. Light-toned surfaces can make a room feel more open, and cement-look walls or built-ins can strengthen the sense of a unified workspace—when planned and detailed appropriately.
