More home office designs

• Cherry alcove nook desk A wall-to-wall cherry desk that turns a 1100mm alcove or a closet with its doors off into a study: a 32mm top on cleats with no legs to bang into, a drawer hung under one end, clear of your knees, an ink-plum backboard carrying a linen pinboard and two floating shelves with a warm light under the lower one. It uses the dead recess beside a chimney breast and leaves the room's floor exactly as it was.
• Oak sewing and craft caddy A red oak sewing caddy that carries a whole project from cupboard to table in one hand: nine walnut spool pegs along the tall centre divider, three bays in front for scissors, rulers and the pincushion, two deeper bays behind for fabric and yarn, and a walnut handle through arched ends. Everything is housed in dados, so it stays square however heavy it is loaded.
• Cinnamon video-call backdrop wall The wall behind a home-office desk, designed for the camera: a cinnamon grid of uprights and rails on an MDF lining, oat acoustic felt in five of its bays to take the echo out of a bare room, two open oak display boxes framing your head in the camera row and a lit oak ledge above that throws a soft warm backlight. It looks considered on every call and stands only 200mm off the wall.
