How can I make my home office look good?

Its all about location and how to use your space.

Your desk, shelves and storage should serve you, not the other way around. Consider your workflow and what items you need at your fingertips when investing in furniture, and then look for pieces that are both beautiful and functional.

How can I hide my office supplies?

How do you lay out a home office?

Make sure you allow enough space to work comfortably.

Ask yourself if you will be able to move easily from side to side, stand up and sit back from your desk. While this may seem like a no-brainer, it is easy to underestimate how much space you need. Storage is often overlooked when designing a home office and can really affect your productivity. Make sure to include enough shelving, filing cabinets or cupboards for your storage needs. Consider your workflow – what comes in, where will it stay while being worked on, and where does it go when complete?

What do I need in a home office? What should every home office have?

A computer, monitor, high speed internet, a good desk and chair and lots of storage.

Do your research on a computer so you select one that meets your specific needs. You might also consider dual monitors, depending on the work you do. A broadband and fiber internet connection is essential if you are going to work efficiently online. Ideally, you will have space for a traditional desk where you can create a great workstation. A comfortable chair is one of the most important components of any office, so take time and care to select and invest in a good one. Lighting, Telephone, software, printer, back up drive and look for space saving ideas with cabinets, shelving, and stores for the walls.

What is a good size for a home office?

The average dimensions are 50 to 150 square feet.

Some people are perfectly comfortable in a home office space as small as 30 square feet while others would prefer upwards of 200 square feet for storage and workspace. The best size for a home office really depends on who is using it and what they are using it for. You may be surprised how little space you really need to have an awesome home office set up.

Where should I put my desk in the office?

Traditionally you put your desk against a wall but in modern times you can put your desk anywhere.

A simple straight-forward desk is ideal for small spaces, if you do not have a lot of room, but still need something to keep all your tools and resources close, a desk with a hutch or bookshelves is a good option. An L-Shaped desk can sit in the corner to use up just a little space, or you can be creative. T-shaped desks are ideal if you have a partner or spouse that you’re building your home business with, or need two work stations. A T-shaped desk can also have bookshelves or a hutch at the top of the T, giving you even more storage. If you want a complete command center, a U-Shaped desk is a great option. A U-shaped desk takes up a lot of space, so it is best in a larger room.

Where should I put my office? Where should your home office be located?

Depending on the size of your office, if space allows, place your desk in the center of the room but still facing the wall.

You can put it by a window or along a wall. If you are worried about the clutter, opt for a desk with built-in cabinets or install shelving and use baskets or boxes to hide your office supplies and documents. So, map out your room and see where your desk will give you the most space.
