IKEA home office trends for 2026: freshen up your workspace with sage green and crisp white — from just $5
January is the perfect time to brighten up your home office, and IKEA has all the accessories you need to bring a touch of spring freshness to your workspace. This year's home office trends are all about fresh white and soft green, giving your nine-to-five an airy, natural feel.
Breathing fresh air into your office doesn't have to be expensive either. Small accessories like the Plöja Desk Pad in white for $4.99, or a set of green Relatera Bookends for $5 will bring your desk up to date, while artificial greenery like the Bladverk Potted Plant in Mug will add a touch of fun, with no watering necessary.
Extra lighting can also lift your mood, and the Kulglass Bluetooth Speaker Lamp in green will let you enjoy your favorite tunes at the same time without cluttering your desk with too many objects. If you want more inspiration, take a look at my full roundup of IKEA's 2026 lighting trends, which includes smart lights that you can dim and brighten automatically, or with a tap of IKEA's Home app.
If you have the budget for a bigger home office refresh, you can pick up the white and sage green Pähl / Örfjäll Desk and Chair set together for $159.98, to give your space a completely new look – and to really freshen things up. the Starkvind Smart Air Purifier can improve the air quality manually, automatically, or via IKEA Home.
