Design The Ultimate Home Office

So, you’ve finally got your dream job working from home. No more sitting for hours on a sweaty train every morning. No more going to an office just to spend the next eight, nine, ten hours around people you despise. No more coming home feeling exhausted. Now it’s just you, your cup of coffee and your PJ’s.

The list of benefits from working at home is enough to make even the most open-minded person jealous. Plus, the pay is probably better anyway. That said, if you’re already going to be in peoples’ bad books for having such an easy life, why not take it up a notch? Why not splash out on making your home office into something really special, just for that added layer of envy?

Having the perfect little corner in which to focus and get on with your work is vital. And doing it in style has never been easier. In fact, now you’re out the corporate space and back in your own home, you can do whatever you want.

If you do it well, you’ll have bragging rights that reverberate for the rest of the century. Well, mostly.

The center of any home office is the desk. Don’t go with some cheap, build it yourself, chipboard design. Get something amazing. Designer desks from Lovethesign will fit in well with any room design.

There are so many different designs to choose from. What about getting a desk with drawers underneath a single glass panel work surface? Perhaps you’re an architect. How can you get more stylish than an Oscar Niemeyer desk with innovative leather underside pouches for your drawings?

It’s just another benefit you get by working from home. You get to choose a desk that suits both your style and your work.

You don’t have to stop at the desk, though. There’s the lighting to consider, the storage areas, the color themes, the flooring, the blinds and on and on.

One thing that will obviously come in handy is your computer. If you’re going to be based at home for most of the time, can I suggest you stick with a desktop PC? The reason I say that is first, nothing can beat a desktop for productivity. And that’s good because you want to be able to wind people up about how much work you get done at home, how much money you make, and how you’re not stressed.

But you can also make the PC into one of the most stylish parts of the room. Today’s 4K displays for productivity are utterly stunning. And I’m not just talking about the picture. I’m talking about the objects themselves. And these days many people double up their monitors for that surround experience. Remember, you can always keep your laptop in the drawer.

Lastly, if you really want to go to town, you could install a fireplace, bespoke fitted bookshelves and a couple of regency style chairs. Then, once you’re done with all that, maybe it’s time to get on with a bit of work?
