Identify A Space

A well designed home office space makes all the difference between getting things done & procrastinating forever. Putting together a comfortable workspace is a lot more than just dropping a desk in a corner.

Here are some pearl drops of wisdom from expert interior designers that will help you transform your home work space into a happy haven where you can get things done.

Add some Greens

Did you know that workspaces can be much happier & healthier with the power of nature? Plants can improve air quality, mood, health & overall productivity. There are a lot of great options for office plants such as air plants, jade plants, aloe vera & bamboo plant.

Explore Colors

Every colour brings a different feel with it. While a soft, light shade of blue can help calm the mind & increase focus, a darker blue promotes clearer thought. Bright colours like orange & yellow can spark creativity & energy. Dark colours can look super stylish but they can make you feel tired & less inclined to work.

Light it up

Right lighting makes all the difference when it comes to productivity and creativity. While a bright and well lit place can make you feel motivated & excited, a dull dark space leaves you feeling tired & uninspired.

Try to get in as much natural light as you can. Add some mirrors to reflect the natural light that comes & create a beautiful illusion of luminosity. A few full spectrum daylight bulbs in your light fixtures & an overhead ceiling light can give you excellent lighting.

Manage your Technology

All the wires hanging from the router, printer, laptop & phone chargers can make your home office space super cluttered. Tame your technology with simple hacks:

  • Have a wireless router
  • Consider a wireless printer & mouse
  • Attach visible wires under your table or along the desk leg
  • Gather loose wires together with a cord
