AFTER more than a year of working from home, it’s time to indulge yourself by creating a working space that’s both decorative and functional. And most likely, the desk will be the centerpiece of one’s home office in terms of design and activity.
The good news is that whether you’re working from home, having an online class, starting a new business or hobby, or simply browsing the net, Our Home has stylish selections that combine comfort, functionality, and designs that you’ll love. And it offers some tips when choosing your dream desk.
1. Choose a desk that’s right for your needs and suits your space and style. Consider your workflow and activities to make sure that you can use your desk comfortably and productively. Also, consider your overall house design in choosing your desk. If your place is more traditional, the classic Hambu Writing Desk would be a perfect fit, while the white Havana Computer Desk will compliment contemporary spaces.
2. Size (and shape) does matter. Making the mistake of buying a desk that’s either too big for your space or too small for the way you work will not be good for your productivity and comfort. You’ll also discover that, apart from the size, your desk shape does matter in helping you get organized. Rectangular desks, like Our Home’s Gavin’s Office Desk, are the most popular choice, and these are available in a variety of width and depth sizes. Corner desks for awkward spaces and wave desks that provide you with the benefits of a rectangular desk while also giving you a larger desk top are also great alternatives.
3. Consider storage. Without any storage, your home desk can become cluttered and disorganized. Opting for a chest with drawers is an ideal way to keep your workspace organized and to make sure that all your essentials are at your fingertips. Better still, opt for a desk and storage combination.
4. Sitting well. Sitting comfortably at your desk is necessary for making sure that you can be as productive as possible as you work. It will also ensure your back is continuously supported. Our Home has ergonomic chairs for a healthy work-from-home, as well as desk lamps to make sure your area is properly lighted.
