Home office decoration
With more and more people working from home, it's important to have a nice home office that feels comfortable.
It helps you be productive and fits your style, it's a must.
Wood Furniture Store has lots of tips on decorating your home office for productivity and comfort.
Color scheme to decorate the home office
Color psychology may sound wishy-washy, but it's a well-studied science of how colors affect our behavior.
This suggests that certain colors are better for productivity. For example, brighter and more saturated colors are more stimulating than less saturated colors.
Blue is a color that affects the mind more, while yellow affects the emotions.
On the other hand, green makes everything more balanced, calm and under control. Mixing the colors result s in a color that has both effects.
Think about the type of work you do. If your work is very mathematical, you might choose more blue colors.
If it's very creative, maybe yellow and green. Perhaps your work is a mixture of analytical thinking and creative process and would benefit from the color purple.
A mostly white room can be decorated with cushions, curtains or rugs in bright and saturated colors to stimulate your brain.
Decide what color "type" you want to go with (eg mind, emotion, mix), then choose the exact color scheme based on what appeals to you the most!

Choosing furniture for the home office
If you are creating a home office, you need furniture. New furniture allows you to discover a new style.
Create the look you want. You'll intuitively know what's essential: a table, a chair, and a lamp are good places to start!
You may also want storage space, such as shelves or drawers, and perhaps a more comfortable chair where you can relax.
Desk for home office
Choosing the right table is essential. It is important that it is comfortable to work on and matches the style of your room.
Consider how much space you need for your work and how it fits with the space you have.
Corner tables can be a great option to maximize space. Scandinavian style wooden furniture can also be a great choice.
Because it has a contemporary aesthetic that looks great in most interior spaces regardless of the overall style.
Maximize vertical space
Even small rooms can be turned into effective home offices.
The trick is to maximize vertical space and use storage space like tall shelves or closets.
If you are really tight on space, look for a narrow but tall bookcase that will help keep the floor space clean.
At the same time, it provides space for storing books, papers and decorations.
Alternatively, choose furniture that has a combination of drawers and shelves to diversify your storage space.
Chair for home office
Your office chair is one of the most important aspects of room furniture. It should be supportive and comfortable so you can work without pain!
Make sure the chair is not too low but allows you to sit at a good height behind your desk.
It needs to have a long back and support as well as a comfortable feeling.
Decor and finishing works
Finishing touches that make a room feel like yours are an important part of being creative.
If a room looks unfinished, it is likely to distract you from your work
Lighting for the home office
Good lighting cannot be underestimated. Place your desk in a position where you can make the most of the natural light from the window.
Consider adding a mirror on the opposite wall or next to the window to reflect sunlight and brighten the entire room.
Instead of yellow, choose bright white bulbs for your main light,
so you don't strain your eyes when focusing on work on darker days or in the evenings.
Carpet to decorate the home office
A carpet can complete the look of an office space and make it more cozy or show off a certain color.
Choose a size that fills the room, or by matching the size of the item, draw the eye to important aspects such as the desk.
Extra Tips for Maximising Productivity
Once your office is all set up, there are a few extra ways you can help to boost productivity.
Keep it Tidy and Organised
“Tidy desk, tidy mind” is a well known saying, and there’s a lot of truth to it.
A cluttered home office can be a big distraction for many reasons.
For those that love organising, you’ll want to tidy it rather than work.
For those who don’t mind the clutter, the various items and things around the room can be a distraction in themselves.
Use bookcases, drawers and cupboards to store your items.
The more organised you can be, the easier it will make finding things when you need them!
Make it Feel Like Yours
A home office is meant to be an extension of your home.
Make it feel like it by choosing a style that works for you,
filling it with your favourite photos or items and personalising it so it’s a space you can enjoy.
