A Home Office for a Small Space

If you are one of the millions who has the privilege of working from home some or part of the time, finding a space to set up shop in your house may not be easy. Sure, there are some people who just happen to have a spare bedroom or an empty den that they can turn into a working space, but for most of us carving out a quiet office to actually get some work accomplished is more of a challenge. Fortunately there are home office furniture collections that maximize space and while providing the function that you need.

Home office furniture collections come with matching desk chairs, file cabinets and other useful pieces. Discount home office furniture collections from nationally known name brands are available online and at showrooms in central New Jersey.

Choose the Right Desk

A grand executive desk can work in a dedicated large office, but to make the most of a smaller space choose a desk that you can put up against the wall. A corner desk can be tucked away in a smaller office, opening up the space for other furniture and functions. Or if a computer table or writing desk will work for you, there are many office furniture collections that offer options in styles from contemporary to classic.


Add a Desk Hutch
Many home office furniture collections feature matching hutches that can be placed on top of the desk. You can use the hutch as a bookcase or to store files and office supplies. Choose a hutch with open shelving or doors to eliminate clutter and hide the contents.

Stackable Bookcases

Make use of vertical space by purchasing stackable and/or tall bookcases. Many home office furniture collections come with a choice of bookcase configurations and sizes to fit your needs. Pick a standalone bookcase, or bookcases that flank the desk and hutch.

Think Multi-Purpose

If you don’t have the luxury of endless space in your home or apartment, your office can do double duty if you choose your furniture wisely and arrange it properly. Your office can serve as a cozy den after working hours if you add a couple of comfy chairs or a small loveseat along with a TV and a TV console. That way you will be able to use the room for entertainment when you are not using it for work.

Tips for Choosing the Right Accent Tables for your Home


Picking the right accent table is a key element for a pleasant flow in your home while adding function and beauty. Accent tables are essential additions for the living room and other areas around the house. But with so many accent table collections available, many at discount prices, how do you choose the right ones?

Here are some easy tips when you shop for accent tables:

1. Think about Your Budget

With such a wide array of accent tables and a broad range of prices, it makes sense to limit your search to collections that fit your budget. Remember to include additional charges like tax or delivery. Purchasing from a reputable company that offers discount pricing, promotions and sales can help you find quality tables in your price range.

2. Decide on the Type

Some rooms can accommodate several different types of accent tables. While cocktail tables, also known as coffee tables, are very popular, there are many others. You may need end tables to place on either side of a sofa, or a chairside table to place a drink or a TV remote near your favorite club chair. A long, narrow console table in the hall, entry or behind the sofa in the living room can hold decorative items to add interest to the space.

3. Pick a Style

Once you decide on your price range and the type of table you need, it is time to have fun choosing. Of course the style you pick should coordinate with the other furniture in the room, but for accent pieces you may want to get adventurous and add some drama. An accent table with an unusual shape, color or material can go a long way toward expressing your personality and your good taste. A round table can soften the corners of a contemporary room, while a colorful accent table can bring excitement to a neutral color palette.

4.  Consider the Details

Before you make your purchase, make sure you will be able to walk freely around the table when you place it in the room. The height of the accent table should be equal to the arm of the seat nearby, or just below. While a standard sofa arm height ranges between 24-32 inches, exceptionally modern designs are often unusually low.
