Right from the start you should think about the design of your office and start with a blank slate. Where would you like to face, the window, the door? Where is your PC or Laptop going to sit and where are the power points? What will you use the least and which quiet corner can it be put in? Once you've set your office up and worked in it for a few weeks it's going to be a mammoth effort to change anything so you might as well get it right from the start.
Here are a few simple questions to think about when planning a home office:
- Are you comfortable sitting with your back to the door?
- Looking out of a window can be relaxing. Too relaxing?
- If working on a monitor, does repeatedly changing to look at daylight hurt your eyes?
- Where will you position your portable heater for maximum comfort and benefit?
- How much desk space will you need?
- What type of chair do you find the most comfortable?
- Do you have enough power points?
- Do you have enough shelves up high for those seldom used things?
- Can you separate your office from the rest of your home, even if just psychologically?
A well planned home office can be a real pleasure to work in bringing all the benefits of a normal office environment with the comfort and relaxation of home.
