Office furniture: how to work productively
For most of us, our workplace is like a second home. This is precisely why we should feel particularly comfortable in this place.
The study within your own four walls - this furniture is part of it
Desk
What should you consider when buying a desk?
The most important piece of furniture in your study is clearly the desk. It should definitely suit you and your needs. For this very reason, it's a good idea to check how much space you actually have available before you buy. Do you have an entire room that can be used as a study? Then the desk can definitely be a little larger. If you have a work corner in the living room or dining room, smaller models are recommended.
Where exactly do I place my desk?
The ideal position for the desk is to the side of a window - this allows you to make the most of the daylight.
Tip: Transparent curtains can help to ensure that you are not dazzled while working.
Office chair
How do you choose the right office chair?
A suitable desk chair is the be-all and end-all in your own office - by choosing an ergonomic model, you can avoid back and neck pain after a long working day. It is said that it is healthiest when the upper and lower leg form a 90-degree angle and the feet have plenty of room under the table top. When choosing a suitable model, it depends on your personal requirements and your body weight.
Equally important to consider is an
- adjustable seat height,
- adjustable armrests,
- good upholstery and
- a backrest with a dynamic rocking function.
Storage furniture
How do you create more storage space in your study?
Documents, pads etc. should have a fixed place, which means that sufficient storage space is essential. Practical bookshelves or filing cabinets work wonders here.
Lighting
Which lighting is best for the home office?
Make sure you have enough light - too little light is harmful to the eyes, not only in the office but also in the home office. The right light source is particularly important in the darker months of the year. A beautiful table lampalso creates a certain cosiness.
Decoration
As we all know, the best is saved for last: How do I set the perfect scene in my study?
Of course, a study must primarily be functional and practical, but you should also feel comfortable in your office. How about perhaps
- a beautiful vase,
- a pinboard or
- a few picture frames?
Make it work! Tips & tricks in the home office
- Create a clearly defined workspace: Whether it's your own room as a study or a desk in the living room - designate a specific place for your work.
- Set working hours: It can often be difficult to differentiate between work and leisure time when working from home. It is therefore best to set a fixed time for the start of the working day.
- Create a routine: Create a short morning routine instead of the usual commute. How about a hearty breakfast or a round of sport in the morning?
- Write lists: Keep lists in the form of a to-do list and create an overview of your day.
- Swap pyjamas for a casual look: It's not just the usual, typical work feel, but also for spontaneous online meetings, dressing appropriately is an advantage.
