Lighting and quiet
Notes:
- One of the more critical factors to consider when trying to repurpose a designated space in your home is the ambiance. You want to pay attention to home office lighting and distractions. It’s always a good idea to have a bright desk lamp.
- You’ll also want some distance, no matter how small, from others in the home. A small room divider screen can put a minimal barrier between you and distractions.
-
Some ideas from the photo above: [ scroll back up ]
- the types of lighting to choose from include desk lamps, floor lamps, and monitor lamps
- get them in LED spectrums that allow for both warm and cool lighting at different levels
- and don’t forget that natural lighting is the overall best for light and mood
- so if room permits, setup your work area next to a window for natural lighting and view.

Outlets
Notes:
- You may have the perfect corner for your home workspace, but consider a few pieces of equipment. The first is electrical outlets. Nothing is worse than a dead laptop when you’re on a deadline.
- Make sure you have outlets nearby to accommodate your devices. Sometimes, a heavy-duty extension cord and a trustworthy power strip will do the job.
-
What kind of socket connections will you need:
- first, you need a surge protector power strip to protect your computer hardware from any electrical surge
- use the power strip to hook up your computer and monitor if needed; connect your desk or floor lamp to another socket connection
- will you have a printer and/or scanner to hook up
- how about other devises such as a clock – device charger – other
- make sure to balance these electrical needs with proper wiring and connections – you don’t want to overload the electrical system

Desk alternatives
Notes:
- The biggest challenge you will probably find in your new desk space is the desk itself. If there’s no room for a traditional desk, you may need to get creative. Consider a mini-desk with a bit of storage space as a bonus. Some are small enough to tuck behind a couch or chair.
- If you want your desk to be a little less conspicuous or out of the way when entertaining guests, consider a rolling desk. A wall-mounted desk might also have room for office supplies.
- A fantastic alternative is a standing desk converter that converts any flat surface into a stand-up workspace.
-
Some ideas from the photo above: [ scroll back up ]
- what’s important is to have a desk where you can work comfortably for long hours during the day
- it’s best to alternate between sitting and standing
- and don’t forget to take periodic breaks for mental and computer eye rest.
