Remote working has become quite popular over the last several years, and while it has its perks, it also has disadvantages. If you work from home, you can quickly become distracted by household and familial responsibilities. Designing a space where you can be highly productive is paramount. With its focus on functionality, minimalist design is a perfect motif for a home office.
The Makings of Minimalism
The cardinal rule in minimalism is less is more. Simple, clean, and straight lines are a prominent feature of this type of interior. A monochromatic color palette is essential, using neutral tones for a calming effect. You can add splashes of color with accessories and art, but you want to do just what is necessary. In minimalism, every object has a purpose and a place. Unnecessary clutter is not an element here, unlike with exaggerated décor like you might find in maximalism.
Effective use of space and natural light is another characteristic of minimalism. All this will help you create a quiet, uninterrupted, clutter and distraction-free working space. As for window coverings, avoid superfluous treatments like drapes or Roman shades; instead, we recommend Hunter Douglas roller shades that will simplify your office and add visual appeal.
Hunter Douglas Roller Shades for a Simplified Window Treatment
Roller Shades are an excellent choice for a minimalistic look. They add a graceful, uncluttered aesthetic. When completely rolled up, they virtually disappear, leaving your window open for breathtaking views. They will prevent annoying glare when rolled down for a more harmonized working condition. Here are three of our favorite roller shades suited best for a simplified home office:
- Designer Roller Shades have a custom clutch system that guarantees smooth and reliable movement even when used frequently. They come in 400 options, including colors, patterns, and opacities. We can fit them to a variety of window types and sizes.
- Designer Screen Shades fight the harmful effects of UV exposure. They can block between 86% to 99% of the sun’s UV rays, ensuring that your furnishings and valuables have protection from aging, warping, and discoloration. These shades are perfect for rooms with a plethora of windows.
- Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades offer optimum energy efficiency because of their unique cellular design, which is comprised of dual layers of fabric. They trap air in the pockets of their spheroid construction. These shades have a refined, simplified look.
