The idea of working remotely or introducing a hybrid schedule has been favoured by a large portion of employers over the last few years, with plenty embracing the premise of an improved work-life balance, less reliance on unpredictable commutes and the comforts that of course come with operating from home several days a week. One noted drawback of remote work is that curating the right home office environment can be difficult if you aren’t equipped immediately, though within this JA Horne Starlight guide, we’ll take you through all you need to know.
The circumstances of both your living area and line of work will of course have a bearing on the type of set-up you require, with different individuals of course requiring different environments. One example of this would be if you’re regularly taking phone calls and sitting in on meetings - in which case you’ll want to ensure there’s very little noise from traffic outdoors, or other disruptions. On the other hand, if you’re looking over a lot of data and different documents at once, you may require more than one PC monitor.
The placement of your home office room is a crucial consideration, and may be dictated by everything from the size of your house to the circumstances of others living under your roof. While the corner of your dining room may seem the perfect area to set up a desk and some screens, this is unlikely to be suitable if your kids are going to be rushing in and out to access the garden. You should account for lighting, noise and privacy when deciding upon room placement ultimately.
Perhaps one of the more important parts of any home working arrangement is ensuring you have the right furniture and decorative elements in place. The last thing anyone wants is to appear informal during a call due to their surroundings, or to have bad posture thanks to unsuitable seating, and this can be remedied by making the right furniture decisions. Bespoke furniture from JA Horne Starlight could be desirable if you need to fit into a precise space, with tables, desks and more at your fingertips!
Tech is a crucial consideration in the modern office, with gadgets and gizmos necessary for your circumstances when operating remotely. You may want to contemplate everything from speakers, microphones and webcams to smart devices and more. The surrounding space could incorporate lighting, tablets and additional monitors too - there are plenty of opportunities to make your working life easier with the benefit of tech.
