The office decor is a rough topic for almost all office workers. When you spend most of your waking hours in this room, you want it to be a place that’s inspiring and beautiful. However, when it’s not your home office, there is a limit to what decor you can use.
It’s too easy to skip decor altogether if your office is little more than a closet, but even closets have wall space. When you can’t fit an extra chair or a bookcase for styling, think wall decor. And we’re not talking about the neutral factory prints. Take a look at these 22 ideas for office wall decor and you’ll have your office feeling like home in no time.

When your office is mostly gray or brown, it will be extremely beneficial to your walls to add some sparkle. Look for a wall sculpture that suits your fancy and make sure it’s in a shade of gold, silver or copper. It will really set the tone for your office.

There’s nothing so official as your own monogram. Whether you make it yourself or buy your letters, hanging your initials in your office will make you feel like the boss of the place.

Inspiration is important to help motivate you through the workweek slump. Hang a canvas in your office with one of your favorite quotes displayed on it. It could be something work related or just helpful to get your mind back on track.

Bringing plants to the office is always a nice idea, but sometimes it isn’t practical or even permitted. If you’re pining for some nature in your work life, find a couple prints that display leaves or flowers or anything from the great outdoors for the same effect.

Of course it doesn’t have to be drawings or paintings of nature to be art.
Take your collection of shells, pressed flowers or stones and mount them in a shadow box for your office wall. You will appreciate looking at your favorite nature collection every day.

Yes, woven wall hangings are still in. Since you can easily find them in neutral colors like brown, gray and cream, they make a nice soft option for your office wall. Your space will feel more like a living room after hanging one of these.

When your office space isn’t very big, you need to think carefully about how you use the space you have.

You’ve heard of the moodboard. If your office is a little on the casual side, go ahead and create a moodboard on one of your office walls. Photos, quotes, magazine clippings, framed or not, it’s all fodder for an inspiring wall to look at every day.

Adding some color to your workspace, whether it’s a home office or not, can make this area more cheerful and inspiring. There’s a variety of different ways in which you can do that. Consider options such as a brightly-colored office chair, a quirky and colorful table lamp or some vibrant wall art. This office created by studio InDesign / Lori Ludwick can give you an idea of how to combine some of these elements.

If colorful decors are not really your thing, perhaps the opposite could suit you better. A black and white office décor could give this space a distinguished and elegant look plus if you’d like you can also sneak in a little bit of color too.
We really like the subdues tones of the area rug used here by interior designer Stafford Bensen.

Just because this is a space where you work doesn’t mean it can’t also look inviting and be comfortable. In fact, your home office could be a part of the living room area or could partially look like one. Consider adding a comfortable sofa and a couple of chairs to change the ambiance in this room. Studio Summer Thornton Design used a similar strategy for this colorful space.

A good general strategy when designing an office or a workspace is to find a way to combine functionality with a pleasant aesthetic. In this case studio Town Line went with a black accent wall filled with shelves and storage compartments. The desk is the centerpiece of the room.

Sometimes minimalism can be a very powerful tool when designing a space. Take this beautiful office by studio Niosi Design for instance. The desk is the only piece of furniture here and there’s no window treatments of any kind and yet this space has a lot of character and doesn’t look austere or overly simplified.

Accent walls are also worth considering for an office space. An accent wall is a wonderful way of introducing a powerful and interesting color or a pattern into a room’s décor. This dark blue used here by studio Marker Girl Home really stands out against the white and gives this space a refined and classic look.

Symmetry isn’t always great but in some cases it makes sense. Check out this elegant office space by studio West Village GC. Symmetry is its strong point and was used here in a way that stands out but doesn’t feel forced.

The desk is probably the most important piece of furniture in an office so consider all the options before settling on a specific type or style. If you’re short on space or you want something small and casual, perhaps a wall-mounted desk and a few floating shelves would look great. Since it would be a fairly simple setup, you might even want to build it yourself. Check out this DIY desk tutorial from thecraftedlife for more details.

Bring your workspace to life with some handmade decorations and accessories. There’s plenty of ideas to choose from, like this lovely fringe calendar garland from homeyohmy. You can customize this one with some of your favorite photos and surround yourself with beautiful memories.

Speaking of calendars, they’re not as popular today as they sued to be. Nevertheless, you can still make one a part of your beautiful office’s décor, especially if it would also have a useful purpose and not just a decorative one. The acrylic wall calendar design featured on jenwoodhouse is perfect for a modern office decor.

These honeycomb shelves would look great anywhere plus they can also be used to store and display various things like books, candles, small planters and so on. Imagine adding a few to your office. It would be both a practical and a stylish addition and, best of all, you can craft the shelves yourself. You can find the tutorial on abeautifulmess.

Another nice DIY project that would be absolutely perfect for an office is this iron mesh board featured on myparadissi. It’s just a little something to put on a wall and to fill with inspiring pictures, quotes and various other things. You can also use it as an organizer so it’s not just for looks.

You can choose to paint a wall black to make the other elements pop against it.
Another idea is to add a shiplap textured wall or a fun board and batten wall. There are endless possibilities when it comes to an accent wall in your home office.
2. Clocks Set On Different Time Zones
Do you work in Chicago but have clients in New York or Tokyo? Decorating your walls with clocks set to different times zones is an easy way to know what time it is at a quick glance. It also makes for an interesting and fun design element for your home office.
Pegboards are a great addition to any home office. You can have supplies easily accessible and organized right on the wall. With a pegboard like this one, you can add shelves, hooks, and even baskets to accommodate anything you might need on a daily basis.
Not only are they functional but there is no limit to how visually appealing you can make them. Consider adding a large frame to make it look more decorative, or spray paint the hooks a color to match your decor.
4. Large Mirrors
A large mirror can be a statement piece on any wall in the house. Consider adding one to your wall in your home office.
Better yet, get some look-a-like Anthropologie mirrors to really make a statement!
Mirrors can help make any space feel larger so this might be a good option if you are working with a smaller space. They also help to make the room brighter.
5. Home Office Wall Decor Decals
If you are looking for an inexpensive, non-permanent way to add some life to your home office walls think wall decals! There are endless design options out there and if you change your mind you can easily change the design.
Most wall decals are removable and reusable and are one of the easiest ways to add life to a boring wall – just peel and stick!
6.
A Dark Painted Wall And Three ShelvesThe contrast of a dark-painted wall against three shelves will help whatever decor you add to it stand out.
7. One Simple Floating Shelf
Keep your home office wall simple by adding a floating shelf. By strategically adding decor, a floating shelf can take place of a large piece of artwork and act as wall decor in and of itself.
One nice thing about this option is you can switch out the decor on the shelf when you are looking to change up the feel of the room.
8. A Changeable Calendar For The Home Office Wall
Large calendars can make for great wall decor in your home office. You can make your own large chalkboard calendar wall to fill up a large space or opt for a designer wall calendar. This galvanized metal wall calendar from Amazon is super cute.
9. A Textile Hanging For The Home Office Wall
Skip traditional artwork for some fun textiles to hang on the wall. Fabric is often overlooked as wall decor but it is a great way to fill a large wall.
This woven wall art would look super cute in any office space.
10. A Bold Framed Print
Bring some fun pops of color into your home office with wall prints. Check out Amazon for an endless amount of bold print options that you can put in frames you already have.
11. Metal Grids
If you need somewhere to put reminders or notes but don’t like the idea of a corkboard, then consider adding a metal grid to the wall. With the use of clips, you can have anything you need handy and change it out easily. Metal grids look stylish and elegant on any wall.
12. Clipboards
If you are looking for a fun practical way to decorate your home office walls, think clipboards! You can spray paint them to fit your decor or go with decorative clipboards. This is one of the most budget-friendly options to decorate your office walls.
Keep important papers visible at all times or just print some fun designs to hang on them. Antique clipboards look great, especially in a farmhouse-style office.
13. Inspirational Quotes
Who doesn’t enjoy a good inspirational quote? Surround yourself with your favorite in your home office for those moments when you may need a reminder.
The contrast of black writing on a white background along with a black frame looks great on a white wall. You can also change up the quotes over time to keep them fresh. Or switch them out with some Halloween sayings or some fun Christmas sayings to add some holiday fun to your office.
14. Paper Scroll Memo Boards
If you like to jot stuff down often a paper scroll memo board is the perfect home office wall decor. It looks stylish on the wall by itself and is a practical way to write down reminders, notes, to-dos and so much more.
When you no longer need what is written down, you can tear off the paper and have a clean look once again. You can buy one like this on Amazon, or make one yourself – all you need is some Kraft Paper similar to this, and some hooks and a rod.
15. Family Photos
When you have a home office, you can certainly decorate with family photos. This is a great way to remind yourself daily what you are working for. A fun design element to consider is using black and white family photos to elevate the design.
16. Yarn Wall Art
Create one-of-a-kind wall decor with yarn. See our tutorial on easy it is to make your own boho inspired wall art with yarn.
This is also a great option to hide an electrical panel if you have one in your home office.
17. Large Wall Stickers
If you like the look of wallpaper, but don’t want to go through the process of hanging it, large wall stickers can be an option for you. These large-scale decals can make a major statement in your home office.
Just peel and stick and you can completely transform that boring wall into something sophisticated and appealing.
18. Natural Prints
Most people don’t realize that your home office wall decor can have a huge impact on how you feel.
Add some natural prints to have a more soothing, calm feeling when you are working.
19. Engineer Prints
Engineer prints are large black and white posters that are usually used to print blueprints. These are a great inexpensive way of printing pictures to use as wall decor! Keep the cost even lower by using clips to hang them on the wall instead of framing them.
20. Plants On Wall
If you are looking to breathe some fresh air into your home office wall decor, plants are a great way to go. Not only will this look beautiful but it also can help to purify the air and reduce stress.
21. Eye Chart
If you are looking for something different to hang on the wall, an eye chart is a great option! Amazon has some really unique non-traditional eye charts that would be great for a home office.
22. Gallery Wall
You can never go wrong with a clean gallery wall for your home office wall decor. Hang pictures of all the places you have traveled for work or a collection of old products.
23. Large Map
If you love to travel, a large map on the wall is an easy idea to fill a blank wall while also adding interest to your space. It can be an oversized vintage map of your city or a world map. Maps come in all shapes and sizes so finding one that fits your home office decor should be fairly easy.
24. Oversized Artwork
Sometimes the easiest way to decorate your home office walls is to add one or two pieces of oversized artwork. This creates a focal point for the room and you can play off the colors or keep it simple with black and white.
25. Photo Ledges
Picture ledges are the perfect way to decorate with photographs if you are worried about hanging stuff on the wall. It makes it much easier to take down frames and change out pictures since they are just sitting on the ledge.
Also, photo ledges are not limited to just photos. You can add small decor items such as plants or candles as well.
26. Cork Trivets For Memo Boards
Don’t like the look of traditional cork boards? Use some cork trivets on the wall to create both a piece of art as well as something that will function for you as you work.
27. Metal Art
If you want something besides framed photos, there are a lot of amazing options when it comes to metal artwork.
28. Wood Wall Art
There is something about the three-dimensional pieces of wood that add beauty to a wall. Wood wall art also helps to bring texture which can change how the room feels. Whether you make your own wood wall art or find a piece you love you can’t go wrong putting wood on the walls of your home office.
29. Song Lyrics Wall Art
Adding song lyrics to our home office wall decor can inspire and motivate us. Find a song that resonates with you and go to Etsy to create a unique piece of wall decor for your office.
30. Empty Decorative Frames
Who says you have to put art in your frames? I love the idea of adding vintage picture frames to your home office wall to create a statement. Head to the thrift store to find frames for a minimum cost. If you want to elevate the look, paint them all a single color.
31. String Lights
String lights are a creative way to cheer up your workspace and add some light. You can hang them across the wall or over a wire grid.

How to decorate an office? TOP 10 creative ideas for painting the workspace
Wall painting in offices is one of the freshest and most effective ways to create a cozy atmosphere and set it up for work.
In this article, we have collected ten creative ideas that you can apply in your office right now.
Successful companies have an extraordinary history, strong personalities, strong teams and a unique creative spirit. It is these features that you should pay attention to when working on the creation of an office interior. It is very important to make the office a unique space in which you want to create, work and “live”.
It is important that workspaces are comfortable and stylish - this approach to the organization of premises significantly increases the efficiency and dedication of employees.
In our dynamic world, there are a lot of creative ideas that can be visualized in your office - to make it an artistic object and a pleasant background for the eyes of the staff and guests of the company.
Navigation is one of the most common design options for large workspaces. This type of design involves the image of bright arrows and symbols on the walls, which replace signs and signs.
For example, the management of some companies even give names to the corridors of their office, like real streets.
2. Abstraction and Expressionism
Paintings made in the style of expressionism or abstraction will have a great effect on visitors. Here, one can say, a lot of ideas are concentrated. Taking as a basis any representative of this subject - from Kandinsky to Pollak, from Munch to Larionov's "Rayonism", you can create a creative and unique interior.
Such design will stimulate creative processes and make the approach to the performance of duties by office staff innovative.
In addition, we now live in the era of social networks and selfies. People do not part with their phones, being in the eternal search for a successful entourage for a post on Instagram and Facebook. Unusual painting will immediately attract the attention of everyone, and especially those who like to be photographed. For a person - pleasure, and for companies - PR on the Internet.
3. Sketching
This is a speed drawing technique, but it takes a lot of time to create. Artistic wall painting made in the style of a sketch looks easy and fresh. As a rule, sketching is done in monochrome with bright color accents.
Sketching pays great attention to detail, which makes the drawings look deep and interesting. This style is popular not only in the office, but also in any commercial premises, and even private interiors.
4. Graphics and geometry
With the help of a graphic drawing, you can correctly divide the office space into zones. With the help of geometry, you can interestingly fill the walls in the corporate colors of the office, highlight the departments. Depending on the size of the image, the pattern will affect the space in different ways.
5. Lettering and calligraphy
This type is considered to be the most popular type of wall painting in the office. It is a painting of the walls with text.
Lettering is relevant, because through this type of painting you can reflect the essence of the company, its type of activity, slogan, the essence of the brand. The extraordinary presentation of information about the company, its values, falling into the field of view of customers, is perfectly remembered.
Motivating quotes cheer up employees, humorous phrases cheer up and allow you to switch a little.
6. Comics and characters
This broad subject includes images of whole scenes or individual characters from famous fairy tales, comics, cartoons or films. Such drawings look especially advantageous in combination with text inscriptions, which allows you to create a coherent composition. As a rule, such sketches on the walls are bright and bring positive to the work process of the team.
7. Graffiti and Street Art Drawings
Graffiti created by street artists on the walls can increasingly be found in office spaces.
This is a rather daring and youthful approach, but it makes the company's employees feel free and energizes for active work. It is popular with young teams, especially in sales departments.
8. Corporate style of the company
The corporate style of the office is especially relevant in the premises where work with clients is carried out. In the lobby, conference room or at the reception, a logo or image may take center stage, indicating the direction of the company.
Many firms prefer to use corporate-style wall painting in their office, which always maintains the spirit of the company and emphasizes the integrity of the organization's structure.
9. Loft style in the interior of the office
Loft is a trendy office design style today. Its essence is in a certain "unfinished" and the combination of the old (brick walls, stairs, pipes) and modern (technology, metal products). In such an interior, graffiti and abstract drawings look relevant.
