Calming Paint Colours: A Blank Slate
Given at-home diversions, finding focus in your home office is critical. Our favourite non-distracting colours include neutrals, blues and greens. Some research suggests green is an effective wall colour to increase concentration, so consider Guilford Green HC-116 or High Park CC-620. Our favourite light blues for home offices include Blue Danube 2062-30 and Woodlawn Blue HC-147.Light colours are not only calming, but they create great backdrops for pin boards, pictures and shelving without being too “loud” for a space where concentration is important. You can never go wrong with white for a home studio or office, as seen in this crisp office in Simply White OC-117.

Lighting & Accent Walls
Accent walls and wainscotting can provide colourful creative punctuation for your home office, library or study. Brighter, more energizing colours we love for the office include Touch of Pink 2008-70, Banana Yellow 2022-40 and Surf Blue 2056-30.Whether your colour choice is warm or cool, as seen in this video, light plays a major role in how colour transforms any room. Use a balance of task lighting and ambient lighting with appealing light temperatures so that the office is equally functional and visually comfortable.

Sheen: The Finishing Touch
Don’t forget to consider the design impact of sheen. Because it reduces glare, a matte finish will produce a soft look that works well in an office.Chairs, desks, cabinets, bookcases or any other office furniture present an opportunity for a higher impact sheen to stand out against classic matte or eggshell walls. If you want shine and contrast for your office furniture, consider ADVANCE®, which provides a furniture-like finish in a high gloss.
