If you find yourself working from home more often than traveling to the office, or if you’ve decided to start a home-based business, you’ll need a defined home office space that’s tailored to meet your needs. As you design your office consider these tips.
A Room With a View
When you have a free moment between tasks you want to gaze at something other than a wall. So situate your desk to face a window so that you can enjoy some natural light and maybe even a scenic view. If your space doesn’t have windows hang a picture for your viewing pleasure—perhaps one with an outdoor scene. Or you can always place your desk so that it faces the door. Nearly anything is better than staring at a wall.
Make Yourself at Home
You have a strong work ethic, so when you close the door to your home office you’re focused and ready to go. But being on top of your game doesn’t mean you can’t still have a space that feels homey. Small things like using a coffee mug, gifted to you on Mother’s or Father’s Day, as a pen and pencil holder, framed artwork by a child, or a favorite painting can all make your space feel even more authentically yours.
Tap Into Your Inner Muse
What motivates you to do what you do? Are you working toward a specific short or long-term goal? Maybe to increase your quarterly revenue so you can take a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Australia? Are you saving for your dream house? Maybe you’re burning the midnight oil to help put a child through college. Whatever your reason devote an area of your office (doesn’t have to be large) to reflect those goals. Pictures of your son, daughter, or family. Perhaps a vision board with references to Australia, and pictures of your dream home.
