Why Tuscan Works for Home Offices

Focus on warm earth tones while ensuring the space still serves its purpose: home offices provide dedicated workspace for remote work, freelancing, managing household business, or focused tasks. they should support productivity, enable video calls, store work materials, and maintain separation between work and home life. Select materials like Terra cotta or Textured plaster that can handle the demands of this room.
When designing a tuscan home office, consider finding dedicated space in the home. Tuscan design typically addresses this through textured walls. Also keep in mind the room's task lighting on desk and file storage (if applicable) when selecting furniture and finishes.

Multiple zones for different work types.
