Hi All

We are in the middle of an office re-fit and ive been asked to come up with ideas of how i want my office to be decorated and furnished.

To be honest am at an loss give me a home i can design and decorate that to a tea but an office i have no idea.

So what do you lot think colours the lot?

Thanks

just take a knife and slice a piece of flesh off your hand... take it to B&Q and ask them to provide you with paint to the colour of your flesh. Take that to work and say you want your office decorated in that colour.

Then, you could go to work naked! (obviously having shaved 1st) and if someone came into your office that you didn't like or didn't want to speak to - you could stand up with your back against the wall - that way, they would't be able to see you as you blend in with the background and they think you are not there! WINNER

Other than that serious suggestion, Magnolia...

How much space have you got? Is there loads of windows and stuff?

Its a pretty big office with a large window covering half of one wall deff need more storage and shelves but i think it needs to be more customer friendly but without becomming to homely :001_unsure:

On a similar note to Jamie's, I'd also suggest magnolia but with blood red paint heavily splashed in a severed arterial type fashion over the floor, walls and veiling. Place a few bits of broken furniture, draw a chalk mark on the floor and randomly scatter a few strands of "Police line - do not cross" hazard type around the place and door frame. Perfect.

You have to get a white board! I love white boards. If I had one I'd never get any work done

For your office re-fit, it’s all about creating an environment that blends productivity with comfort. Here are some ideas:

1. Light, neutral tones like whites, grays, and beiges often work well in offices to keep the space looking clean and open. However, adding pops of color can make it feel more dynamic. Consider accents in colors like navy blue, forest green, or even mustard yellow to add warmth and energy to the space.
2. An excellent option for adding personality without the hassle of traditional wallpaper. You can choose designs that fit your style, from bold geometric patterns to subtle textures that create depth and interest.I recommend self adhesive wallpaper is easy to apply and remove, making it ideal for office spaces that may require frequent updates or flexibility.

3. Opt for functional yet stylish furniture—comfortable ergonomic chairs, spacious desks with plenty of storage, and a few decorative pieces like plants or modern lighting. Keep the furniture simple to maintain a sleek and organized atmosphere.

Inspiration: A focal wall with a fun, custom-designed wallpaper or a subtle pattern can bring an artistic touch to the office. It’s a great way to make the space uniquely yours while maintaining a professional look.

If you're looking for something personal and creative, you might consider print-on-demand wallpaper that allows you to use your own design or choose from a wide range of available themes.
