Adding wallpaper to any room will add style and personality, yet a home office can especially benefit from a beautiful focal point to boost your creativity. Wallpaper can be a great way to add a personal touch to your office, something you can only take advantage of when working from home.
The inspiring home office wallpaper ideas in this list vary in style, pattern, and color and you can use them to get inspired to transform your own desk space. Work with an accent wall for a subtle touch or cover the entire room with wallpaper patterns to achieve an overall look.
Wallpaper can be a great option to add color and texture to your space and you can go bold or subtle in the pattern design so it can fit perfectly to the space. Wallpapers can also be used to visually separate your home office area from the rest of the room if you don’t have a dedicated room to work from.
A subtle office wallpaper paired with a vintage desk
When you prefer calm and tranquil energy in a room to focus and get some work done, you might want to select a subtle and subdued pattern for your room or feature wall. This gorgeous home office space with a vintage desk is finished off with a subtle green-grey wallpaper that matches perfectly with the paint color on the historic door right next to it.
The darker tones in the vintage desk and art prints stand out against the subtle pattern and the natural light coming into this space adds a subtle glow to this work area.

A cozy office space corner that stands out against the wallpaper design
The mixture of the rattan desk chair, sheepskin, and the beautiful selection of accessories on and around this home office desk create a cozy, welcoming, and overall good working environment. The natural textures in the materials are enhanced by a beautiful green office wallpaper design that is applied to the whole room.
An entire room with a bold wallpaper design featuring a small home office spot
The bold pattern wallpaper is applied to the whole room of this turn-of-the-century home, making the white historic doors stand out in a powerful way against the dark color of the wallpaper design. The classic decor paired with the antique desk is an excellent choice for this setting and the old typewriter is the perfect decor addition while the desk is not in use.

The intricate bird pattern on this beautiful office wallpaper instantly puts you in a creative mood. Big pattern wallpaper designs are often used for feature walls or bigger spaces, while smaller patterns tend to do well in smaller rooms.

A modern home office with a sage green wallpaper
The calm and natural sage green wallpaper design used on these home office walls really makes the white desk and natural oak desk chair pop out from its backdrop. Rather than using green paint, the home office wallpaper adds a bit more texture, which eliminates the need for additional decor pieces to decorate the office space.

A modest wallpaper allows you to focus on a difficult task
When you find it hard to focus in a bold space, pick out a wallpaper that is subtle in both the design and color palette, like the one used in this soft and delicate home office. The brown shades in the wood and leather warm the look up and turn this corner into a cozy spot to get some work done.

A feature wall perfect for a creative space
An accent wall covered in wallpaper is great when you want to include your home office inside of the living room, bedroom, or kitchen space. Not only will the wallpaper add character and style to the setting, but it can also serve to separate the functional areas visually from each other.

A delicate floral pattern on the wall of a small hobby area
When you use your home office for creative hobbies as well, you might want to focus on achieving a creative atmosphere when selecting the perfect wallpaper for your office walls. I love the way this floral design pairs with the old photographs on the wall and with the old desk and chair.

A wallpaper with a marble pattern in a bedroom home office corner
This must be one of the most impressive home office wallpaper ideas on the list, as the entire bedroom height is covered with an impressive wallpaper in a brown tone that is complemented by a full-length mustard curtain.
Even though there is a wide selection of wallpapers available that look like natural stone, this brown-tone marble design has an amazing effect in this home office, combined bedroom.

A professional home office with a subtle grey wallpaper
When you are lucky enough to have an entire room available to call your home office, it makes sense to cover all the walls with wallpaper to achieve a cohesive effect throughout the space. When you face the wall with your back, the wallpaper will provide a great background on video calls with clients or colleagues as well – added bonus.

A subtle wallpaper background in a kitchen home office section
The countertop on the kitchen cabinets in this space is continued over into a work table, which is a great solution for adding a home office to your house when you don’t have a dedicated room. The greige kitchen cabinets with the wood countertops are paired with a classic and delicate wallpaper that adds an elegant backdrop to the mix of vintage pieces.

A stylish dark wallpaper design adds depth
We’ve seen this home office spot on this list with another wallpaper design, yet with this dark and bold pattern, it easily becomes one of the most characterful home office wallpaper ideas on this list. I love the way the white table lamp jumps out of this setting and the way the blue swatch on the wall complements the wallpaper color so perfectly.

The big leaf patterns on this beautiful green and blue wallpaper transform this home office and add a bold pop of color and pattern to the otherwise very neutral color palette and energy in the furniture and accessories.
A dark and classic design is the perfect option for a bedroom home office corner
The classic style of this combined vanity and work spot is brought to life by the elegant wallpaper in a deep color, that softens out the daylight coming in through those historic windows. The brown and pink tones in the desk, chair, and curtain contrast beautifully with the cool undertones on the wall.
A retro design adds structure to this home office space
This is one of the most retro home office wallpaper ideas on the list, which provides the space with clean lines on the wall. The clean lines of the wallpaper and desk are contrasted by the curves on the Wishbone chair, in the arm of the lamp, and in the art print on the wall.

An attractive green wallpaper to add personality
Imagine this office without the wallpaper and it would not look that interesting, wouldn’t it? I think the balance between creating a good working environment that is both inspiring and calming is achieved perfectly in this space by using a subtle pattern in a beautiful, calm sage green tone.
A blue floral wallpaper around a desk integrated into an old doorway
The beautiful custom structure created by the white desk that fits inside of what used to be a doorway is accentuated by the use of a blue floral wallpaper, which makes both the white desk and the doorframe stand out in a gorgeous way.
The blue tones are paired with black accents and natural tones in the cardboard storage boxes and the cork pinboard on the wall.

To find the best wallpaper for your kid’s homework table, apply the same rules as for adults, yet add a bit more fun and whimsy.
