The idea of working from home is tempting for many people,
but many realize soon enough that setting up an office in their home is not exactly
easy. The good news is that you can have a productive space even if you do not
have a separate room for your office.
Whether you work full-time
or occasionally from home, or you simply need a place to organize your
documents or invoices and check your email, you need more than just an extra
chair and a desk, placed in a free corner of your house. The office space must
reflect the design of your home and provide the comfort you need for being
productive, especially if you spend there a few hours each day.
Make a list of the things you need for your work: laptop,
important documents, fax, printer etc. Place the most commonly used pieces of furniture
near the office chair. Make a scheme and mark the areas of passage and access
to the office space. Choose a modular desk that contains drawers and shelves from Everything for Offices furniture supply store.
Also consider an office lamp and a drawer for important documents.
Follow the ergonomic rules. These are made to provide the
highest comfort, from the way your arms are supported, to the way the back of
the seat is curved.
Last but not least, choose a suitable color, which will not
affect the chromatic harmony of the house, but help you to focus on your work.
