Creating an efficient workspace for remote work can be challenging. To help you get started, we pulled together our top tips to furnish your home office.

Start with the basics

Desks are the focal point of any home office. The first step to finding your perfect desk is figuring out how you will use it. Consider things like whether you need more space for monitors and file storage or you if require a small space solution.

No workstation is complete without an ergonomic office chair. Your chair should be comfortable, provide support and encourage good posture.

Organized shelves elevate the style of the room while enhancing functionality. Open and airy storage shows off decor and keeps essentials conveniently at your fingertips. Prefer to hide clutter? Choose storage cabinets with doors to put the workday away.

Light your home office

The brighter the space, the more energetic you’ll feel. Natural lighting is the best for a full day of productivity. But, if your office lacks natural light, use a combination of table lamps, ceiling lights and floor lamps to illuminate your space.

Add finishing touches

Now that you have all the office essentials, it’s time to complete the room. Frame meaningful photos that boost your mood, use unique desktop organizers and bring in a plant or two.
