Working from home has become a staple of pandemic living. However, many people have not been able to create a pleasant at-home work environment. Here is how to add style to your home office and make it your own.
A Comfortable Chair
Though it almost goes without saying, working from home means you will be sitting in the same room for most of the week—a comfortable chair goes a long way. When selecting a chair for your home office, look for items that will not only last long but also fit your style. Every home office is a blend of your personality and your work. Make the functional space more fun by adding color or luxury with brightly colored padding or a leather chair.
Quality Lighting
The lighting in your home office can change your mood instantly. If your space is too dim and moody, your emotions will reflect the muted room and you will be less productive. But, with the right lighting, you can have a warm but bright space that invigorates you to work. Think about adding a colorful light bulb or a lamp that changes brightness levels.
Organization and Tidiness
One of the easiest ways to stylize your office is to organize it. Using a filing system and having a simplified desk space will allow you to personalize more easily. If your office hosts an array of papers, folders, and snacks, you will feel less motivated and organized when working.
A Splash of Color
Adding color can make your office truly personal. If you are living in a house, consider adding a new coat of paint to your office or make one wall a fun color that you would like to look at each day. If you are living in an apartment, find a stick-on wallpaper design that you can easily put up. Regardless of your living situation, you can create a color theme for your office and decorate with spunk.
Custom Décor
Custom décor can take your home office to the next level. Whether you want to display your company logo or make your own sign, you can add crisp laser-cut lettering or inspiring posters to your wall. Think about spicing up your office décor with a funky lamp or a potted plant, too.
With these ideas for how to add style to your home office, you can go out and make your space your own. There is no limit to your creativity and style options, so design a home office that works for you.
