Let’s talk about something that almost everyone asks about these days: home office remodeling.
It’s one of the fastest-growing requests we get, and it’s not hard to see why. Whether you’re a full-time remote worker, running your own business, or just want a better spot to pay bills and corral the chaos of life, having a well-designed home office isn’t a luxury anymore — it’s a necessity. We’ve seen it all — from young professionals starting businesses from their basements, to retirees running nonprofits from their spare bedroom, to military families juggling work and virtual learning.
But here’s the thing: it’s not just about throwing a desk in a spare room and calling it good. If you feel like your home isn’t set up to support how you live and work now, you’re not alone. That’s exactly why we remodel.
A true home office remodel should be purpose-built, climate-smart, wired for productivity, and — let’s be honest — should look good enough to show off in your next Zoom call.
Let’s break it down.
Colorado Springs Has Unique Needs for Home Offices
You might not realize it, but remodeling a home office in Colorado Springs is a little different than doing the same thing in other cities. Our high elevation, dry air, and wide seasonal temperature swings all factor in.
Common local challenges we solve:
- Natural light management: Because we get a ton of sunshine (over 300 days a year!), we’re strategic about glare control and light diffusion.
- Efficient heating/cooling: Basement offices can be freezing in the winter and hot in the summer. We design around that.
- Power and connectivity: We often retrofit older homes that were never wired for a modern workload — multiple screens, fast internet, backup power — we’ve got solutions.
What Do You Actually Use Your Office For?
This is where we start every project. Most homeowners assume they need a certain kind of setup. Answer these first:
- Are you taking video calls all day?
- Need dual monitors, printers, and storage?
- Want your office to double as a guest room?
- Is it a shared workspace for your spouse or kids?
- Do you need extra storage?
We’re not here to sell you the fanciest thing. We’re here to design something that fits your real life. If your desk is in the corner because your outlets are in the wrong spot, it’s not your fault. It’s your house’s fault. And we can fix that.
Built-In Cabinetry That Works As Hard As You Do
Our custom cabinet shop — yep, we’ve got our own, right here in Colorado Springs — uses CNC precision to build beautiful, functional built-ins that:
- Maximize your vertical space
- Keep clutter out of sight
- Integrate filing, printer storage, and cable management
- Match the style of the rest of your home
- No more bulky furniture that kinda fits. We build it to fit like a glove.
And hey, if you’re into clean lines, shaker doors, or something ultra-modern? We can make it happen.
Design for Focus, Flow, and Flexibility
Your home office isn’t just a place to sit — it should help you focus. We look at:
- Soundproofing options: Especially important in open-concept homes
- Task lighting + ambient lighting: So you’re not squinting at 3pm
- Ergonomics: Built-in sit/stand desks, monitor mounts, and keyboard trays
- Hidden tech: Built-in charging stations, in-drawer outlets, and under-desk cable runs
Creative Ideas We've Built Into Home Offices
We’ve done some cool stuff over the years. Here are a few of our favorite upgrades:
- A Murphy bed + desk combo for a dual-use guest room
- A custom bookshelf that hides a pull-out standing desk
- Sliding barn doors to close off a lofted office space from the main living area
- A sound-dampening ceiling made from reclaimed wood — beautiful and practical
- A dual-zone workspace for couples working side-by-side (and still staying married)
Don't Forget the Nitty-Gritty (Electrical, HVAC, Lighting)
Remodeling a home office isn’t just interior design. It’s remodeling. That means we pull permits, run new electrical, rework ducting if needed, and do all the stuff behind the drywall — the stuff that makes your space safe, quiet, and efficient.
Because we do everything in-house (carpentry, HVAC, electrical, painting, you name it), we don’t have to juggle a bunch of subcontractors. You get one point of contact, one streamlined process, and one beautifully functional office at the end.
