More and more people are working from home and need some office shelving to make a proper home office and organize their work professionally. There are some great new styles of office shelves available that will make your office space look efficient and attractive and here is a selection of the latest designs:
Dark Walnut Bookcase
Elfa Platinum and White Office Shelving provides good looking storage systems for file binders, reference material and documents. It's open back shelving that allows good air circulation around the shelves to keep away any mold from developing when the office is closed up and cold. The Elfa storage system is easy to install on hollow, stud or internal walls without causing any wall damage. Once you have fixed the vertical wall bars, the wood shelving just clips into place with screws. The wall mounted shelving bars are made of epoxy bonded steel and the shelves have a Melamine veneer that looks modern and is easy to clean.
The dimensions are 30" x 56" x 8' and set up against a plain wall this office shelving looks contemporary and professional. You can buy it from The Container Shop online and it costs 2.62. Elfa is a Swedish company which produces really original and contemporary looking storage systems and closet organizers too. It's worth a look at more Elfa products online if you want some lovely modular shelving in birch or walnut which looks very elegant and sophisticated.
The InterMetro range of office shelving is another range which looks modern and efficient. Their steel shelving storage systems have extra-strong open back shelves which are designed to take the weight of libraries of books, boxes of stationery and computer equipment. The metal shelving can support weights up to 500 lbs and it's easy to assemble without tools. This system has open back shelves that allow a free circulation of air which is very important when you're storing paper products. The dimensions of this basic unit are 18" x 48" x 74 1/2" and the colors are black, silver or white. The InterMetro Office Shelving unit is available from The Container Store online and costs 4.25.
For office furniture that's both useful and attractive you'll find that the Office Depot 48" Office Shelving For Books is just right. It's a bookcase with 4 wood shelves finished in a rich looking Natural Cherry color. It's commercial shelving, but it would look good in any home as well. The bookcase has sturdy, adjustable shelves which can support a weight of 50lbs each. This is deluxe office shelving that looks expensive, but isn't! The dimensions are 48"H x 35 5/8"W x 11 5/8"D and it costs .19 from Office Depot online.
My final choice is wire shelving from Walmart; The Whitmor Chrome Stacking Metal Storage System is an inexpensive and practical way to get your office organized. It's made from sturdy steel shelving with an individual shelf weight capacity of 200 lbs. This is part of an office shelving system with pieces that fit together so you can buy more and increase your storage area if required. This unit includes six wire shelves and would be perfect for a home office when you don't want to spend a fortune on commercial shelving. I also think this storage system would go well in a teenager's bedroom and provide useful open shelving for school books and papers. Wire shelving doesn't catch all the dust in the air and so is very easy to keep clean and it looks contemporary and sleek. The regular model measures 16"H x 14"D x 15"W and the wide model is 30" wide. You can buy this office shelving from Walmart online for .74.
Office shelving is available in many styles and sizes to accommodate your storage requirements, while still looking attractive and stylish to make your working day more pleasant. Commercial shelving is also a way to show your clients what sort of personality you have and an efficient looking office space which shows attention to detail will say more about you than any words can!
