Freelancers and entrepreneurs are at the forefront contributing to this trend by operating successful businesses that provide top-notch professional services from their residences. This start-up culture (which keeps growing) is what will make this "home office trend" here to stay, with the year 2020 providing some of the most inspirational home office designs.
Hidden Storage

We predict that in the coming year, out-of-the-box storage options will focus on being utilitarian and aesthetically pleasing, in order for homeowners to only showcase those items that personalize their homes and store away those items that clutter a space.
Multi-Functional Spaces

The multi-functional use of spaces has now become a priority for most homeowners, and the versatility of furniture pieces is now mandatory. For example, many homeowners no longer want a permanent dining room. They prefer using any extra space as a mixed-use space: on any given week, either as a home office, creative space, meditation area or a temporary dining room for when their guests come to visit.

The personalizing of spaces on an as-needed basis is the reason as to why versatile designated living spaces (which are able to change on any given day) are here to stay.
