Modern Boho Office Reveal (Before & Afters)

Looking for boho office decor and design ideas? You’ll love this dramatic transformation of our boho office with his and her desk space.

Today is one of my favorite days on the blog! Today we’re revealing another finished space in our home and I’m giddy with excitement for you to see just HOW AMAZING this boho office turned out.

With all of this work from home and virtual school, there’s no better time to create a dedicated home office or homeschool room in your house – right?

I think you’re going to love this room with lots of boho decor, gorgeous functional furniture, and his and her office space with two desks (which could also work great if you have two kids needing virtual school space too!).

This post is sponsored by The Home Depot.  All opinions are entirely my own. This post also contains affiliate links, but nothing that I wouldn’t recommend wholeheartedly. Read my full disclosure here.

BEFORE PICTURES

Ok, before we get started here…let’s just put out a disclaimer that you’ve never seen this room before….And that’s for a reason. It was a complete train wreck.

The room has no windows, which makes it difficult and kind of feels like a dungeon. Here’s what it looked like empty after moving in.

Once we got moved into this room, it definitely didn’t get any better.

Mismatched furniture.

No decor whatsoever.

Clutter everywhere.

No storage solutions.

And definitely not an inspiring place to spend so many hours working.

It was LONG overdue for a makeover, so when The Home Depot reached out and asked us to participate in a fun campaign with the gorgeous furniture & decor in the Home Decorators Collection, it seemed meant to be.

Boho Office Mood Board

I had way too much fun choosing furniture and decor from the Home Decorators Collection. There are SO many fun options! A lot of the pieces really fit together nicely, which allows you to mix and match to get the perfect combination for your room makeover.

After much debate, here’s the office design plan that we came up with for our office mood board.

SO fun, right?

My other really exciting plan for this room was a giant pegboard wall made from plywood. This is what I came up with for my general plan for that wall.

Ok ok… I know the suspense is killing you! You really just wanna see how the boho home office turned out, right? Well…without further ado…

What a transformation, right?!

These beautiful desks have a touch of vintage charm that I love and SO much storage, which definitely comes in handy.

I just love that our office had room to create his and her office area with two desks because we really both need one.

I’m loving using the keyboard tray to keep my mouse and keyboard tucked away when I’m not working.

We also appreciate how much larger the desk space is compared to our older desk. There’s plenty of room for a plate of lunch, a cup of coffee, a notepad, and a planner (I’ve tested that).

I absolutely love how this little corner of our boho office turned out! This linen arm chair is SO cozy and I can definitely envision cuddling up on early mornings with a cup of coffee and doing some reading here.

By pairing up this decor of the chair, modern farmhouse floor lamp, and shelf in the corner of the room, we’ve added so much function to an area that would normally just be empty.

You’ll probably notice there are a lot of plants throughout the room and also no windows. These are ALL faux plants from Home Depot.

They bring so much life to the space and help bring in some natural vibes that you miss without having that natural life from a window.

This bookcase provides so much extra storage and the two drawers you see are both filing cabinets, which is definitely needed in the office, of course.

  1. It’s beautiful! What an amazing transformation! I kept seeing your kraft paper wall note thingy and looking for the link. Glad to see that it’s going to be a DIY!

  2. WOW!! Absolutely stunning! Thank you for sharing this beauty. It has given me some ideas as I am about to start renovating my office. Love the peg boards. Mine with be a combination office bedroom with a Murphy Bed. Once again outstanding job!!!

  3. Wow wow wow! Gorgeous makeover, & something I can incorporate in to my own space. Questions: Where’s the printer? Modem? Router? They’re the big space hogs in my office. Hate having them so visible, but they’re very necessary components.

  4. Looks AMAZING! Thanks for sharing! Will definitely try the black tape trick.
    I was just curious, is there not a way to put a window in this room? It is strange that a house was projected with a bedroom no less, without a window.
