Our Most Practical Design Tips

Keeping a healthy work-life balance can be a challenge, especially when you’re working from home a majority of the time. Having a home office that separates your work and home life, as well as keeping you productive is extremely important. These are our best design tips for helping you create a home office that allows you to be productive when you’re working from home.

Natural Light

Natural light can play a huge role in your productivity, and making your home office a good place to work. As opposed to artificial lighting, natural light is good for our sleep patterns and for getting vitamin D (which can help us to feel happier)! Choosing a room with a good amount of natural light is perfect for a home office.

Storage

Having good storage capacity is vital for a home office. The last thing you need when you’re working is a messy or cluttered space. Investing in folders, filing cabinets, cupboards and other forms of storage can help you keep important documents or files in a safe place, reducing clutter!

Plants

Having plants goes perfectly with your natural lighting. They are a good way to add a pop of colour and nature to your home office. They are good for circulating air and making your office a more calming place to work.

Quality Seating

It goes without saying, quality home office furniture is essential. Your chair is most likely where you’ll be spending most of your work from home day, so choosing a chair with appropriate and quality support is crucial. Ergonomic chairs are a popular choice or mesh back chairs.

Personalise

Although your home-office is a workspace, don’t be afraid to get personal with your decor! From photos and posters to candles and trinkets, there are ways to personalise your office without cluttering it. Adding a personal touch can help you elevate your home office, making it a nicer place to work!

Bespoke Furniture

Buying bespoke home office furniture can be a great way to design the ideal workspace. Made to measure desks, media units and storage units can be fitted precisely into your space, allowing you to create the best furniture solutions for your office!
