“A home office shouldn't look as if you've brought home furniture from work, it needs to
have character. Of course it has to be functional, but with an equal amount of personality.”


Anna von Schewen and  Björn Dahlström have been putting serious thought into the home office long before Covid forced so many of us to work from home. The designers of String Furniture's Work collection believe that the "home office shouldn't look as if you've brought home furniture from work, it needs to have character. Of course it has to be functional, but with an equal amount of personality."

The String Shelving System is designed to be both aesthetically pleasing and flexible enough to fit into any home. Taking up relatively little space, there is no need to set aside an entire room in order to create the perfect workspace at home.

"It's all connected with function and how to create flexible configurations that work in different room environments"

You can easily make use of any leftover space in a hallway or an attic. Even a wardrobe can be transformed into a smart workspace with just a few simple tweaks.



If you already own a String shelf in your bedroom or living room, you can add a folding table, work desk with drawers, cabinets etc from the Works range to create a workspace that maintains the cosiness of home.

The height adjustable desk is another great option to consider. Decoupled from the walls without losing any of String's characteristic lightness, the table is less bulky than traditional options. With an under-frame that is reminiscent of a simple trestle, it possesses a natural, functional and light appearance.



We've taken the liberty of creating a selection of ready-to-buy String Workspace bundles, perfect no matter how much space you have at home to call an office.
