Keeping a beautiful bouquet of florals atop your desk will provide a pop of color to an otherwise neutral space and a sweet aroma pleasant enough to inspire some real productivity.

@tobiassikstrom

We love the addition of dusty rose and subdued teal hues to this whitewashed office nook.

@outwithaudrey

Don’t clutter your desk space with objects you think you need. Instead, fill it with trinkets you’ll actually use. This phone stand, tray, and leather bound candle and vase are perfect examples.

@julie_eye_see

If you’re lucky enough to have an entire room for your home office, take note of this inspired space. The squared off book shelf paired with tear outs taped to the wall, the healthy number of plants, and natural textured furniture and decor makes for a relaxed and functional room.

@cyliaherbertson

We don’t know about you, but we love taped inspiration in an office setting. Being able to switch out images that are inspiring you at that exact moment is key to cultivating a creative space. This desk does this especially well.

@_harlowejames

Make use of your space and hang some floating shelves above your desk for the prettiest

shoe storage

Leaning a cork board is another great way to display (and confine!) your inspiration.

@easyinterieur

Never underestimate the power of a smaller shelving unit. It can usually hold whatever would normally clutter your desk.

@mariannetaylor

There’s so much to love in this home office. From the baby blue accent chair to the plant stand, floating shelves, and hanging clipboards, it’s safe to say we’re fans of the space.

@bykoczanska

If you have lots of stuff to hide (who doesn’t) buy uniform buckets to hold your stuff. This office does an exceptional job of masking clutter in a chic, organized way.

@alainakaz

That. Book. Stack. Seriously, we can’t take our eyes off it.

@thedesignchaser

We cannot stop singing the praises of storage ladders, which can also double as magazine holders, like you see here.

@juleytl

There’s no reason to worry about wall decor when you can work surrounded by a view of the trees with a flood of natural light.

@streetsmith

Pinned, organized inspiration in a single color palette can double as decor in minimal office space.

@grayurban

Displaying kind notes or memorable invitations will keep you inspired to keep working hard at what you love.

@taylorsterling

Keeping your color palette consistent with soft neutrals isn’t just a trend. It will keep distractions at bay, and look really, really pretty.

@gingerhearts

The decor on and surrounding this desk is kind of amazing. The metallic and marble accents are the perfect mix of trendy and personal.

@whathamifound

Details, details, details. Don’t you love when your favorite candles, stacked books, and hand lotion create the perfect office vignette?

@fridayafternoon_sundaymorning

If you have a hard time staying indoors—especially on hot summer days—design a workspace dripping with plants and florals.

@bentheliem

Grid wall decor isn’t just good for keeping clutter off your desk, it’s also aesthetically pleasing.

@theeverygirl_

Keep a pouf around for seating for visitors… And to use as a foot rest.

@ericaaulds

Because sometimes you need to fit a few workers into one small space. Keep your wall decor simple with a single, larger framed piece of art.

@katherinepower

Opt for neutral decor in a variety of textures to keep your small feeling fresh and elevated without being too boring.

@designtwins

Pick polaroids to display at your desk to create a wall of good memories.

@styledportland

Get sh*t done—the perfect sign for an office space.

@theflowerdrum

You don’t have to adopt a whitewashed, minimal aesthetic if that’s not your style. This pretty, bohemian-inspired desk space is a prime example.

@jamiehyatt

Choose wall decor that is also functional. A whiteboard checklist and clipboard calendars are creative and affordable ways to decorate your space.

@braunadams

This room doubles as a place for guests to crash (yep, that’s a pullout sofa) and a home office.

@itstamika___

While the desk you see here is located in a true office space, we’re going to steal the decorating idea anyway. Create a uniform grid of inspiration instead of a messier board.

@arloandco

Neon sign lovers, this one is for you. Don’t feel like you must buy a desk lamp if that’s not your style.
