Key Features To Update Your Home Office
Are you ready to transform your home office to the next level? Let us help you with some key features that will turn your office into a more peaceful, productive and organized space.
PAINT WINS IT ALL
Paint the walls and bookcases a semi-gloss blue and use light accents for the rug and seating. This will make the room feel enveloped by colour, but calm, because it’s only one big player and all of the other elements, are neutral. I always like to paint the fifth wall in the room, which is the ceiling. Painting the ceiling cozy up the room.
BUILT-INS
The key to any bespoke, custom look is the built-in. So whether you choose to add trim around your IKEA bookcases or opt for a custom desk & file cabinets, built-ins elevate the room. Built-in cabinets offer ample room to organize and keep clutter out of sight. Adding file cabinets is the best way to ensure you have enough storage and a desk that works for your needs. According to experts, installing a pullout shelf for your printer is invaluable, as it hides the cumbersome equipment while still allowing for optimal use. The ability to close cabinet doors helps create a clean, streamlined aesthetic that prevents unnecessary distraction, and drawer cubbies and inserts can also help improve your organization.
EXECUTIVE DESK
No home office is complete without the executive desk which features file drawers on both sides and natural wood or wood veneer for a solid feel. This is the workhorse and staple of any home office space.
RUGS
Adding a rug to any space softens the room and adds a textured element.
CURATED ART
A well-selected art piece can make any room home office look more professional. An abstract, Landscapes, MInimalistic Art art the examples of what kind of art you can incorporate in your office space,
MIND THE COLOUR
The colour palette should help you create a calming, productive working environment as well. A soothing colour palette will reduce stress and make you more comfortable in your new office. Different hues have a different effect on the human brain.
Yellow evokes feelings of cheerfulness which can stimulate creativity, while red is associated with concentration, and can make you alert. Green evokes the feeling of inner stability, while blue makes you calmer. However, you can’t pick the colour palette of art, without taking into consideration the colours of the wall and other parts of the interior. Ensure that art complements the rest of your home décor to avoid a distracting effect. Avoid intense or high-contrast colour arrangements as they can strain your eyes.
LIGHTING
With everyone surge into virtual communication, the idea of a home office with proper lighting has never been more meaningful than now. Working in the dark certainly isn’t beneficial, and neither is forcing our coworkers and clients to strain to see us on Zoom calls. Add lamps on the desk, install a bigger chandelier in your room than a builder-grade light fixture. Recessed Lights are a great way to add lighting.
