There are many advantages to working from home but when you don’t have the right workspace, your productivity might suffer — and your business too. If you’re in the process of designing or redesigning a home office, here are some tips from
home remodeling experts at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of East Georgia.
Location
Choose a room or area with enough space for your equipment and supplies. If your work involves creating art pieces or other tangible things, you might want to consider having an alternate space for production. This could be a finished basement, heated garage or hobby shed.
Layout
Design the layout of the room and establish early on how you want your office to look. It’s often recommended to designate certain areas for specific tasks. For instance, you might want to have a separate space for thinking, working and meeting. This usually helps to avoid clutter and ensure you can focus on the task at hand.
Lighting
Don’t forget to come up with a lighting plan that will ensure eye comfort throughout the day. You can ask
interior remodeling contractors to help you with this. Generally, light should be directed away from your line of sight. Your lighting plan should include natural light from side windows and supplemental light from a desk lamp.
Comfort
Pick the right furniture to ensure comfort while working. You might want to start with the chair — make sure it’s adjustable so that the lumbar support, armrests and seat height suit your body.
Color
The color of your office interior can influence how you feel when you’re in there, impacting your productivity and energy levels. For example, orange and red are often considered energizing, so they’re ideal if your work is tedious or physical. Blue is generally known to help with productivity, while green helps increase energy levels.
