I work from home a few days a week and I absolutely love my home office. It’s bright, clean and most importantly organized. It’s not a huge space, but it allows me to be creative, get inspired from both the natural world, with the influx of natural light coming in from lots of windows, to other inspirations that I can clip and post up on my wall for future design projects.
The key to a well designed office is to go with function first, then worry about look and decor. Make sure your work space is setup for how you work. If you solely do work on the computer, make sure you invest in a monitor that will be big enough to see your work. If you design like I do, make sure you give yourself enough space for drafting, sketching and laying out design boards. Be sure to include storage space and shelves to help keep your non-daily resources stowed away and organized yet still accessible.
Then add in your decor and color scheme. Include artwork, personal framed pictures or other items that remind you of those in your life who you are working for – you kids, husband or wife, partner, parents. Keeping those close to you in view while you work, will help keep it all in perspective.
