This is the first of several posts about decorating a home office. With so many of us spending anywhere from an hour or two, to many hours per week working from home, it's a topic that most can relate to.
So how do you go about decorating home office spaces? Well, you need to make some decisions first, and they're not difficult, but they are important.
First decision to make is, how will this home office space be used? If you work from home full time, for example, you may need more designated space than if your use will be a few hours a week. So decide how critical this space is to your lifestyle.
Your second decision for decorating home office spaces will be a natural outcome of the first, and that is, where will the home office be located?
It may be an area in the dining room, the kitchen, the den, living room, bedroom, etc. Try to allocate a space that includes natural light. Although you will add task lighting, the natural light provides a boost for your body and soul, so take advantage of that resource!
There is no right or wrong answer, no room of the house that works better than another. Ultimately where you locate your home office space is a very personal decision, based on your needs, your family and your lifestyle.
