Home Office Décor

An increasing number of people can commute to work without opening the front door. If you're one of them, then you might want to consider the design of your home office. The ideal domestic workspace is an area distinct from the rest of the residence, a place where you can mentally, if not physically, leave your home to concentrate on business. The following sites help you create an office bubble that is both a separate unit and unobtrusive.

Dulcinea's Insight

If you don't have an extra room to turn into an office but do have a guest room, consider combining the two. Have a bed and side table for your guests and leave the rest of the space for a desk and possibly bookshelves, or an armoire outfitted with a desk, filing drawers, and computer equipment that can be shut away when not in use. You might also consider transforming an attic or basement into an office if the temperature there is comfortable.

Be mindful of lighting in your office. It's an easily overlooked detail, but can seriously affect your productivity.
