The Importance of Customizing Your Home Office
This season is all about change! Let us leave fretting about unsightly backgrounds for last minute zoom meetings and replying to emails at the cramped dining room table at the 2020 rearview mirror. Working from home trends are taking into the new year and it’s time to transform your temporary workspace into a dream home office. Whether the office is a new addition to your home,or your office layout is in need of an upgrade,investing some TLC into personalizing your workspace does not only make your home feel less like a work site,it also provides several long-term advantages. Here are our top reasons for why personalizing your home office is so important.
1. Reduce Stress
If you’ve been camping at your kitchen counter or rotate your workspace around other’s programs,then your first goal of the new year is to find your own designated area. Not with an established workspace or an at-home regular can be overwhelming and stressful. It is easy to lose track of meetings,misplace important documents in the heap of daily mail,and be disrupted by constant distractions. A helpful tip to reduce stress levels while working from home would be to adhere to a routine and decide on a system in place that fits your lifestyle best. Some people love to adhere to a rigid routine,finishing tasks like clockwork. If you fear a dull program,then create a regular with flexibility that stillkeeps you on track and focused during the day. Defining areas of the room or a particular time of day for certain tasks can help keep your mind sharp and remain productive. Start your morning by pulling the blinds open and letting the bright sunlight fill the room as inspiration for any imaginative tasks. When it’s time to take a break from computer work,change your setting up by moving from the desk to your sofa and relax as you answer calls or attend virtual meetings. When you are ready to buckle down and focus,go back to your desk and pull up the most comfortable chair thatyou could sit for hours. Have you tried our desk chairs? Having some familiarity in a new environment can be calming and comforting during times of change. Additionally,it will help put you at ease when each document has its own place,and you don’t have to scramble last minute to find some peace and quiet.
2. Increase Your Productivity with A Comfortable Work Space
When you haven’t found a set location to work from yet,look at repurposing your spare space. You know,the room you book for when friends and family come to visit and where you hide all your online purchases. While it’s great to use this temporarily vacant space,it’s not currently designed to be your office so that you could feel the need to preserve its current design. Packing up your workspace at the end of the day can make you feel like you’re the guest and limitations are not optimal for productivity. Remember that making the room feel yours does not mean you have to fully redesign the space and throw the mattress. You can have a stylish,productive space that serves multiple purposes with a couple of design enhancements.
Each individual finds inspiration and motivation in different ways,so it’s important to curate a workspace layout that is most optimal for you to be productive. If you get a creative job,incorporate colors and patterns that inspire you. If you operate best when you are relaxed,design with muted,soothing tones that provide serenity during a chaotic workday. This is your home,which means that you can design it in any way that makes you feel happy and able each time you walk into the office. If owning a home office feels inconvenient,then rethink what it seems like to work from home and create a design that functions like an office but seems like an elegant”she-shed.” To rethink your home office design,personalize it with a one-of-a-kind desk and chair in fabrics and leathers that are just as unique as you. Customize your desk in the style,to the size,to the fabric and create furniture that looks fashionable whilst matching your personality perfectly. The best perk of designing your own custom desk is that if you need to clock out for the day,the stress of the office disappears,and your home office goes back to being your home!
3. Boost Your Mood with Ergononic Office Furniture
While we recommend sticking to a routine in your home,reporting to your office does not have to be boring or stagnant. There are no strict corporate guidelines to adhere to. It is your space which means you have all the freedom to design it however you like. Curating a fun space that makes you happy can be the difference during a hectic day so use this as an opportunity to build your dream office.
When designing,you can start small. Brighten your mood by integrating sentimental items that bring you joy and decorate the space with personal items like family photos or memorabilia from unforgettable trips. Integrate your character into the office with new furniture in your favorite colors. While fashionable,aesthetic things are important to make a room look stylish,make sure not to skimp on the comfort! Sometimes happiness is achieved by simply wrap yourself up in a soft,warm blanket. Drape your cozy Barefoot Dreams toss over a lavish desk chair like you are staging for a luxurious home catalog. Beat the chill winter temperatures by conveniently bundling up and enhance your mood in moments.

Some wise advice to live by is to invest in yourself since it pays the best interest. Your environment plays a significant role in your mood and since a lot people spend nearly all our week working in our home office,you have earned the ability to curate a space that’s comfortable,practical and motivating. In return,not only will you really delight in reporting into the home office each day,but you will see how your performance can improve when your space works for you. Unconvinced? Recall a time you slept on a poor-quality mattress and how it negatively influenced your sleep. An insufficient workspace can negatively affect your work performance in a similar way. Our surroundings set the tone of the day,so if your workspace lacks organization,layout,and character it will result in feeling stressed,unproductive,and unhappy which isn’t optimum for high performance. Define your present and future career goals and design your office that’s fashionable,functional,and fosters those aspirations.
