The place where you are day in and day out and sit down to work is extremely important not only for your happiness but also for your productivity, so getting the ideal environment is an important thing to keep in mind. Depending on the needs of each one, the spaces must have some conditions or others.
When we decorate our office the changes we want to make will always be limited by the options of the space that the company assigns us. However, there are a series of tips that you can follow when it comes to getting the most out of the workspace that we have at home.
Tips for a functional and stylish workspace
Choose the place, the chair, and the lighting
The first thing you need to be clear about is where your workspace will be located. Under the window, leaning against the back of a sofa or in the alcove under the stairs. Choose the right space and make the dimensions of the desk fit the chosen location. if the space is small it is preferable to get a custom made table
If you have plenty of space in the living room and your desk has a design you want to show off, you can place it diagonally in a corner.
Since you are going to spend hours working, navigating, or creating, it is very important to choose a comfortable chair. You need also a lamp that provides the necessary light when the natural light is not enough or we lack it. It is very important to place the lamp on the correct side, being always on the opposite side to the hand you are working with.
Keep your workspace tidy and in order
Any space can be your workplace at home, but it is important to have everything tidy and in order. Having an uncluttered table, work elements in their place and storage space will favor concentration and prevent us from getting distracted more than necessary.
Most of us tend to store unnecessary things. This is detrimental to our workflow. Experts say that on your desk you should have the essentials in sight, only the tools or items of daily use.
The easiest way to maintain order is to have drawers or shelves near the desk where you can store everything that we do not use regularly.
Personalize your workspace
Turning your workspace into a comfortable place to work will not only be visually more beautiful but will help you to increase your productivity. A safe bet is to go all white with the furniture and add a touch of color with accessories.
Add some nature with fresh flowers or plants and surround yourself with souvenirs, photographs, and books that inspire you. It will directly affect your mood in a very positive way.
Add personality to the wall with wallpaper, or a gallery wall. Make sure that everything is the same size as the table, to finish defining your work corner. It will add color and personality to the space.
