First, you need to figure out exactly how much office space you need, and what equipment your office will need to house. A freelance writer will have different office needs than a clothing designer, or example. Generally, a home office will need enough space for a desk, chair, filing cabinet, bookshelf and pinboard, and it will need access to electricity and Internet.
You won't work at your best efficiency if you're too hot or two cold. Ensure you install air conditioning or heat pumps in your new office, and that any new walls you add are properly insulated.
When choosing office furniture, the key is to find stylish, functional pieces that will last for yours. It can be a good idea to have an ergonomic assessment before you buy office furniture – as an ergonomic specialist might be able to suggest a type of chair or desk that cures your back pain or helps avoid glare on your computer screen/
You don't want to clutter your desk with all manner of knick-knacks, or you won't be able to concentrate. In an office environment, less is definitely better than more. Move our knickknacks to the bookshelf and keep potted plants and all photographs of your family, choose your favorites and rotate these regularly. We hope you enjoy decorating your office and hope it becomes a place of productivity and dram hard work.
