We’re in the midst of something new. A shift of consciousness. A rethinking of our definition of home, and what happens in it. In our increasingly integrated and connected world, our homes are evolving. Once exclusively havens for rest and restoration, today our homes are also becoming places where productive work takes place. Business is executed, collaboratives are formed, and goods and services are sold. Welcome to the future. Whether you regularly work from home, or just on occasion, there’s never been a better time to create a beautiful and functional work-friendly environment. We at William D Scott have added many new items to our collection with your home office in mind. We invite you to explore these pages for inspiration. 1
