If you've had the luxury of owning a home office, you'd know the joy and inspiration it can garner if done right. And even though it's built for work, it isn't always about the practical stuff. What's most important is creating a constructive and comfortable environment, and these tips will tell you how!
1. Cork Board Wall
Home offices can be both stylish and functional, and one way you could start is with a cork board wall. It's an eye-catching option that's not only beautiful, but can also become the perfect site for you to pin documents or inspiration.
You could even reserve a little corner of the cork board for more personal items like photographs, which you could look through during a short break, rejuvenating yourself so you're ready to work even harder the rest of the day.
2. Relaxation Corner
Like we said, home offices aren't always just about work. You're bound to run into roadblocks when you're figuring out work solutions, and sometimes staring at your documents don't seem to produce the right answers.
Taking a breather in a comfy corner you've created for yourself might allow you to think clearer, and you'll be surprised what a little downtime can do for you. It doesn't have to be lavish, it just has to feel relaxing enough.
3. Table In The Middle
Sometimes tables don't have to be put against the wall or at a corner. If your occupation requires constant moving around, like getting supplies, placing your table in the middle of the room might actually speed up your work process, since you'll easily be able to reach for things.
Having your work table placed in the middle can also allow more breathing space, easily inviting inspiration since you don't feel backed up into a dull corner. It's a great placement for people who tend to pace around the room as they mull over their work too.
4. Share The Workspace
Although having a solo workspace is constructive, sometimes sharing it with a loved one can be twice as effective. If you're the type who loves bouncing off ideas, or feel a similar work frequency with someone else living in the house, sharing a workspace might allow the both of you to increase productivity by helping one another out.
It's also a fun way to bond with family members, and you might discover a whole slew of ideas which wouldn't have come to you otherwise.
5. Have A Mini Fridge
You know that blissful stretch where inspiration suddenly hits, and you're working at a furious pace trying to get everything out before it disappears? Or, when datelines are looming and you're too panicked to even leave your seat? In times like these, you'll probably stay cooped up in your home office, rarely taking breaks.
Keep a mini fridge in your home office, preferably within arm's length of your work table, so it's easy grabbing a snack or two as you slave away. This way, staying glued to your work chair for hours on end becomes easier, and when your brain's fueled with food, it'll work better too.
