Arranging Your Home Office Furniture

I've lost count of the number of people who've taken the time to furnish their home office with high-end furniture and stylish accessories, but work in their kitchen or bedroom. Whether it's bad lighting, feeling too isolated or wanting a better view, their home office isn't working for them.

The way you set up your home office can affect your productivity and even affect whether you'll actually work in that space.

If possible, don't put your monitor in front of a window or opposite a window. The glare and the contrast between the outside light and your screen can be hard on your eyes. Instead, make sure your screen is either facing a wall without a window or at a right angle to a window, for better viewing. If your screen has to face a window, make sure you have drapery or blinds to block the outside light.

Don't forget to allow space for opening file cabinet drawersabout an additional twenty-four inches. The cabinet itself may fit in a convenient space next to your shelves, but it's useless if you can't open the drawers all the way.

If you need to share a home office with a guest room, use a hideaway bed, a Murphy bed or even a day bed. If you choose one of the first two, make sure you leave enough room in front of them to open and close the beds easily. This way you'll cause less disruption to your office when you need to use the bed.

Take the time to set up your home office the way you want it to be and it'll be a place where you want to work every day...even if your commute is only 10 seconds away.
