Furnishings in a home office should be set up so that they work efficiently and comfortably. Here are some tips for getting the job done.

1. Draw the outlines of the office or office space to scale on graph paper. A scale of 1/4 inch equals 1 foot usually works well.

2. Mark anything that would affect your arrangement: electrical outlets, phone jacks, light switches, windows, doors that open into the room, windowsill heights and so forth.

3. Make same-scale paper cutouts of your furniture and shift them as needed until a likely arrangement emerges.

4. Think about how you like to work. Some people must face the door or have a window view; others prefer to have fewer distractions.

5. Be sure you have ample light regardless of where you put your desk, drafting table, reading chair or other primary roosting place.

6. Analyze what you do most frequently and situate the furnishings accordingly. If you often search through file cabinets or reference books, keep them accessible.

7. Place an ample surface for note taking near the telephone.

8. Try to arrange the furniture in such a way that pieces viewed as a unit don’t show dramatic shifts in height and mass as the eye sweeps the room. If a tall bookcase is next to a low desk, hang a picture above the desk for balance.

9. Don’t put any obstacles (including a wastebasket) near a chair on wheels. You don’t want to whack your shins or scatter trash every time you shift position.

10. Set up an area for meeting with clients if this is part of your home office needs. This can usually be a small table with two or more chairs; stacking chairs can be useful if space is at a premium.

11. Make the best use of storage, which is often in limited supply in the home office. If storage is at a premium, think about what you seldom use and move it to another storage area, such as the garage, attic or basement; consider installing a high shelf in the room – perhaps above the window or the closet door – for occasional-use reference books and supplies (extra file folders, computer paper).

It sounds easier than it is, but at the same time, setting up a home office is pretty simple. You just need to have some foresight into devising the office environment you want. Of course if you’re going to be in that office all day–if you work from home–you’ll want to push for maximum comfort. But even that doesn’t have to break the bank.

1. Choose a desk. It’s easy to go cheap with pre-fab furniture. But if you’re going to be working at home all day (even if not) you can still find a nice desk. You can also find a cheap but, quality furniture at office furniture stores.

The small mom-and-pop shops often have floor sample discounts and other deals that put Wal-Mart or Target fiberboard desks to the dust. Not to knock the big box stores, though. Some of their materials are very sturdy and you can even find a good desk there.

2. Embrace technology. Again, it depends what your needs are out of a home office. But if you’re going to run a business from it, I highly advice putting money into an all-in-one machine for printing and faxing if you don’t have separate machines.

I have an HP machine that cost about $250 dollars, but the printing, faxing and scanning functions work impeccably. A good computer is key. Depending on what you do, though, you may not need the speediest, top-of-the-line machine.

3. Get lit. Good lighting is integral to productivity. Whether you’re in the office all day or not, some good room lighting and optional task lighting adds a lot to the comfort of the office. Read the rest of this entry »

A home office is important for those people who work from home or simply want a quiet space to work on the evenings and weekends. A well-designed home office creates a comfortable, inviting environment.

Several furniture styles work for a home office depending on the level of formality you’re looking for. Using multiple furniture styles means that you can find comfort in a number of ways when you’re working from home.

Desk
The desk is the centerpiece of any home office. Most people use it to hold their computer, so consider the size of your computer when choosing a desk. A large, dual-monitor desktop will command more desk space than a sleek laptop. A small office might benefit from an L-shaped desk that abuts the wall. This desk style provides space for both computing and working.

A more traditional stand-alone wooden desk works well for a classic office. Often, these desks include a few drawers to store your belongings. Choose a metal or wire desk for a more modern look—these desks will take up less room than bulkier wooden desks. Consider the size of your space and your decorating style when choosing your desk.

You may have an old file cabinet that’s still in working shape, but doesn’t look good. Or maybe you just want a new look in your home office. There’s no need to buy a new file cabinent. It’s very simple to repaint the old one.

1. Select a well-ventilated area to paint in. Lay a drop cloth to protect the space.

2. Put the cabinet on the drop cloth. Remove any drawer pulls or other hardware. If it can’t be removed, cover it with painter’s tape or electrical tape. The hardware can be thin, so use an Exacto knife to carefully trim away any extra tape.

3. Clean and dry the cabinets. Remove the drawers, if possible. Treat rust spots with rust primer, if necessary.

4. Prime the cabinets with the metal primer. Use a spray primer if you can find it, as spray painting the cabinet will be easier than using a brush. Priming the cabinet will create a surface the paint can stick to and should prevent future rust.

5. Allow the primer to dry according to the package directions.

6. Spray paint the cabinet with your color choice. Use a rust-resistant paint.

Home office furniture can mean the difference between an organized, productive day, and a scatterbrained experience. Of course it may be difficult to purchase all of your home office furniture at the same time, you can absolutely purchase it in pieces.

Buy something here and something there when you have the money. This article will help you choose the right home office furniture for your home.

1. Make sure you have a desk as your main home office furniture item. Everyone needs a desk. In fact, it should be the first thing you purchase. It doesn’t have to be fancy, just something to place a computer and conduct business.

2. Visit office supply stores and sit in a number of different office chairs. A nice chair is the next home office furniture item you should purchase. Especially if you sit in your office all day long, you need the right kind of chair for your body.

3. Decide if you will conduct meetings in your home office. If so, one piece of home office furniture to add is another straight back chair to sit on the opposite side of your desk. Read the rest of this entry »
