Home offices built for eight-hour days, not for photographs.

Bengaluru works from home more than any city in India. The desk in the corner of the bedroom deserves to be planned properly.

The short answer

What a home office unit costs in Bengaluru.

A study or home office unit in Bengaluru costs between ₹55,000 and ₹2.2 lakh. A wall-mounted desk with overhead storage starts around ₹55,000; a full working wall with cabinets, cable management and integrated lighting runs ₹1.4 lakh upwards.

What matters here

What separates a desk from a workspace.

Four things, and three of them are invisible in a photograph.

01

24 inches deep, minimum

A monitor needs roughly 20 inches of viewing distance before it strains your eyes. Desks built at 18 inches — which many are, to save space — put the screen too close and are the most common regret.

02

Cables planned before the desk is built

A grommet, a cable tray under the desk and a socket at desk height, not at skirting level. Retrofitting this means drilling a finished desk, so it is decided at the drawing stage.

03

Light across the desk, not behind you

A window behind your monitor creates glare; a window behind your chair puts your head in silhouette on every call. We place the desk perpendicular to the window and add a 4000K task light.

04

What is behind you is on camera

For anyone on video calls daily, the wall behind the chair matters. Open shelving with a couple of considered objects reads far better than a blank wall or a cupboard door.

What is underneath

The specification, in plain language.

Finishes are what you see. These decide whether it is still tight in year eight.

BWR plywood carcass as standard

Boiling-water-resistant ply throughout, upgraded to BWP anywhere near water. We do not build carcasses from MDF or particle board.

2mm edge banding where you see it

The edge is where furniture ages first. Thin 0.45mm banding lifts within two monsoons; 2mm survives a decade of being knocked by a vacuum cleaner.

Hettich or Hafele soft-close

On every hinge and channel, not only the display doors. Rated for around 50,000 cycles.

Anti-termite and anti-borer treated

Every panel, before it reaches you. On ground and first floors across Bengaluru this is what separates a ten-year unit from a four-year one.

Step by step

From measure to handover in 20 days.

One team, one timeline, one person answering your calls.

Measure and plan

A designer measures the actual room and asks what goes into it. Planning starts from what you own, not from a catalogue drawing.

3D and sign-off

You see it in 3D with finishes applied. Nothing goes to the factory until you have signed the drawing and the price.

Factory build

CNC-cut, edge-banded and pre-assembled off site. No cutting in your flat, no dust in your rooms.

Install and handover

Installed, levelled and handed over with the snag list closed. The warranty starts at handover.

Good questions

Questions worth asking first.

At least 24 inches. A monitor needs roughly 20 inches of viewing distance to be comfortable, and an 18-inch desk — common in compact builds — puts the screen too close. This is the single most common complaint about built-in desks.

Perpendicular to it. A window directly behind the monitor causes glare; a window behind your chair silhouettes you on video calls. Side light is the one arrangement that works for both.

Yes, and most of ours do. The thing to plan for is the sightline from the bed — a desk covered in work visible from where you sleep is a known problem. A shallow cabinet door that closes over the desk area solves it.

A grommet through the desktop, a tray underneath, and a power point at desk height rather than at the skirting. All three have to be decided before the desk is built, because retrofitting means drilling a finished surface.

Only if you are on calls for several hours a day in a room with hard floors and bare walls. In a carpeted or curtained bedroom the difference is small and the money is better spent elsewhere.
