Home Office #Goals

Published 11/13/2024 by Katt O'Reilly | 4 min read

Finding the perfect balance between comfort and productivity in a home office can be a challenge, especially with the rise of hybrid work. Too much comfort might lead to a drop in productivity, while too little can make work feel confining. As home offices have become essential in today’s work-from-home landscape, it's important to create a space that supports both efficiency and relaxation. Whether you’re on Zoom calls with colleagues or working on important projects, your home office should be a place where you can thrive. Here are some tips to help you design a workspace that’s not only functional but also a pleasure to use.

Invest in ergonomic furniture and an elevate desk

Your desk and chair play a crucial role in your home office setup, directly impacting your comfort and productivity. Investing in ergonomic furniture, such as the Stafford Office Chair, which offers excellent lumbar support and adjustable features, ensures that you maintain good posture and avoid back strain during long hours of work. Pair it with an Elevate Electric Lift Desk, which allows you to effortlessly switch between sitting and standing, enhancing your comfort and reducing the risks associated with prolonged sitting. This combination not only supports your physical well-being but also boosts your productivity by creating a flexible and supportive workspace that adapts to your needs.

Organise with style

If you appreciate everything neat and organized, we have a variety of options for you! Your pens, pencils, and highlighters will have their perfect place, files and folders will be neatly packed away, and charming touches will create a balanced and harmonious look—all thanks to the Coda Storage Range. With Coda’s optional inserts and add-ons, you can easily conceal old files and clutter while proudly displaying family photos and your latest succulent. Update your workspace with the stylish Waverley Trestle Desk, featuring a tempered glass tabletop and a timber appeal. This desk is the ideal statement piece for the center of your room. Place the Alabaster Floor Lamp next to your desk without taking up valuable desk space. We’ve got you covered!

Personalize your space

Are you someone who can’t sit still? Do you pace back and forth while reviewing your latest project? Do you enjoy curling up in a cozy armchair while drafting your next email? The traditional home office has evolved beyond just a computer desk and office chair to include a comfy armchair or stylish sofa, a coffee table, and storage units. Why not create a breakout space within your home office that keeps that inspired spark alive?

A contemporary dream, the Australian made Valentina Love Chair is ideal for those long reads or to enjoy your afternoon caffeine hit before wrapping up for the day. The Valentina is available in over 50 different fabrics and colours—from bold patterns to neutral textures and everything in between. Experiment with a bold, daring hue instead of sticking to neutrals. Who says your home office can’t be trendy and full of life?

Refresh regularly

Keep your workspace fresh and inspiring with regular updates and maintenance. Simple tasks, such as wiping down your office table and sanitizing your laptop and gadgets, can make a significant difference. Regularly cleaning surfaces helps reduce clutter and creates a more pleasant environment. Consider adding new decor items to enhance your space, like the Beach Stairway Wall Art, which transports you to a tropical beach with a light breeze and coconuts for a sun-kissed feel. A small plant can also keep the area visually appealing. These small updates can revitalize your office, helping to maintain your motivation and productivity.

Finishing touches

Now it’s time to enhance your space with some Feng Shui and add the finishing touches. A bright and inspiring environment is crucial for positive energy and achieving your home office goals. Swap out those blinds for sheer curtains to let in natural light and add a plant or two for a touch of greenery.

Whether you’re drawn to the charming magic of the Gradient Rug or have other décor in mind, your choices can greatly impact how you work. Lastly, designate specific work hours and create physical boundaries to separate work from personal life. This will help maintain a healthy work-life balance and ensure your home office remains a productive space.
