Home office wall panels

Home office wall panel ideas

Your desk wall is the one you see all day, and the one your colleagues see behind you. A panel wall gives the room a calm backdrop with real texture.

Panel the wall behind the desk for a strong video background, or the wall you face to give your eyes something warm to rest on. Light oak keeps a small office bright, while darker tones give it a focused, library-like feel. Browse panels by color and get inspired by the home offices above.

Sound better on every call

Small offices with bare walls and hard floors echo. You hear it as a hollow sound on calls, and so does everyone else in the meeting.

Panels behind and beside the desk absorb that echo. Every Akupanel has slats on an acoustic felt backing with Class A sound absorption. Your voice sounds clearer on calls, and the room feels quieter when you focus on your own work.

Soundproofing a home office: what panels can and can’t do

Many people look for ways to soundproof a home office, so it helps to know the difference. Soundproofing stops sound from traveling between rooms. It usually means building work on the walls, floor or door.

Wall panels improve the sound inside the room by reducing echo and reverberation. For most home offices, that’s the real problem: you sound echoey on calls, and the room feels noisy. Panels solve that without construction.

An office in the corner of another room

Not everyone has a spare room. If you work from a corner of the living room or bedroom, panels on one wall define the workspace and make it feel like its own area.

For more separation, an Embrace room divider creates a work zone without closing off the room. Add a Vigg felt sheet and shelves from the Embrace accessories.

Storage and light on the wall

Keep the desk clear by moving things to the wall. Add shelves for folders and books, a magnetic board for notes and a wall lamp for even light on video calls.

Create accessories clip between the slats, so you can move them whenever your setup changes.
