How to Cosy Up Your Att Home Office

With the work from home format continuing to prevail from the onset of the pandemic to now, home offices are at the top of many homeowners’ agendas. Creating a workspace that motivates and inspires you can help you get more work done and enjoy your surroundings while doing so. No matter what your workspace decor preferences are, here are some actions you can take to cosy up your home office. 

Personalise Your Workspace

When decorating a home office, it is important to think about your personal style. How do you decorate other rooms? What colours and prints do you like? Although a home office is a space that is meant for practicality, it doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun while decorating your workspace.

Pick a Colour Scheme That Motivates You

When personalising your home office, it is important to pick a colour scheme that suits you depending on what your job requires of you and what you are drawn to. While a classic neutral colour scheme can keep you grounded in your work, an uplifting colour can create a stimulating and inviting atmosphere. Whichever route you choose to go, picking a colour scheme that matches your mood and work will help to motivate you, creating a space that gets the best out of your work.

Get Your Lighting Right

Ensure that the lighting in your home office compliments the colour palette of your choosing. Tailoring the lighting in your home office enables you to work without extra strain on your eyes. A desk lamp or floor light creates layers of light that can help create a warm and cosy environment to work in. Don’t forget to pay attention to the light coming through your windows as well; adding sheer curtains will allow maxim natural light in without causing glare to a computer screen.

Pay Attention to the Final Touches

While it is important to pay attention to the main work areas in your home office, it is also important to add personality to your space with extra decor, details, and pops of colour. Adding these details to your home office will mean you create a space you want to spend time in. Adding some ‘non-office’ furniture to your space will add an informal feeling to the space. Hanging artwork and adding a vase to your desk is a quick and easy way to elevate the room. Dressing up a window sill or shelves with plants and books can further personalise space.

While a minimalist workspace can help you keep your office distraction-free, bright and busy workspaces are perfect places to think and create. No matter how you choose to decorate your home office, cosying up your workspace is dependent on what you are drawn to.
