34 Home Office Designs With Exposed Brick Walls

home office designs with exposed brick walls cover

Exposed brick has become a huge trend in décor and it’s here to stay because more and more designers use it when creating various spaces, from kids’ rooms to kitchens. Today I’d like to inspire you to make such a wall or wall in your home office.

A home office isn’t a usual living space, it’s a space purposed to work, so you have to make it functional and work-inspiring yet homey and cozy. Exposed brick walls will make you think of work like no other, and they are edgy and lively, they will make your home office super cool and fun.

Whitewashed Brick

Some of you are worried about bringing too much red to the space: it fits not every interior and doesn’t make you think of work much. The easiest way is to whitewash your brick as white easily blends almost any room décor: industrial, minimalist, Scandinavian, modern and vintage. Opt for uneven finishes to make the brick walls messy and more architectural-looking. If you want a refined look, cover the wall with several coats of white paint. If you don’t have brick walls and don’t want much fuss, just take faux brick panels or wallpaper in the colors and shades you like.

Make sure that it’s finished and sealed properly to produce an effect or go for red brick panels and wallpapers.
