Choose the ideal space:

The most important thing to work from home is to have the right space to avoid distractions and achieve the highest productivity. Avoid working on the sofa or in your room, spaces that we associate with leisure or rest

The ideal would be to use a room only for work. In many occasions this is not possible: Avoid setting up your office in a passage area, that will only attract distractions. If you need to install it in the living room or bedroom, you can use elements that separate the areas such as shelves or chests of drawers. Carpets or painting the walls a different color are a great resource, their visual effect helps to delimit and show the space dedicated to work

Furniture:

Choose the right furniture according to your needs: a smalldesk or a spacious one, a chair with wheels, shelves, cabinets, etc. It is important that the furniture is not only practical and to your liking, but also comfortable and suitable for long hours. The ideal is to have easy access to everything.

Arrange:

Order is one of the most important keys to feel at ease. Having a tidy space will make you more organized and creative at work. The ideal way to achieve this is to use furniture with a large storage space as well as organizers and the necessary accessories; such as pencil cases, organizers, drawers, wastebaskets, etc.

It is also necessary that you choose a place for everything and that you only have what is really necessary. An organized place is equivalent to an organized mind.

Color:

As color psychology explains, colors influence people and they behave differently in front of different colors. Therefore, it is important to define what we want to be the predominant color in our workspace.

White: White is the color of tranquility, serenity and purity. White walls provide a feeling of spaciousness and luminosity. This is your color if you are looking for a space in which to improve your concentration and be calm.

Blue: It is said that blue is the color of concentration, it also brings calm. On the other hand, it can also have negative connotations as it is a cold color and can be too sedative.

Yellow: Yellow is associated with creativity, vitality and concentration. It also conveys optimism.

Green: It is important to always have a touch of green in your workspace. This color is associated with nature and brings harmony and serenity.

Other colors such as orange provide a shot of energy and pink and purple are inspiring and bring peace. It is best to go for light tones.

Define your style:

Nordic, minimalist, industrial, glam... which one do you choose?

Nordic style conveys warmth; it is practical and simple. On the other hand, the minimalist style is also ideal for a workspace because it is clean and elegant. Whatever style you choose, the most important thing is that you feel comfortable with it and that it conveys the desired image.

Lighting:

This is another key point in your workspace. The ideal is to have a good source of natural light, but this is not always possible. Therefore, it is important that you have lamps that illuminate your workspace, as well as lamps that allow you to get the light whenever necessary table lamps that allow you to get more direct light whenever necessary for those moments of concentration. One aspect to take into account is that the spotlight should not be right over your head in order to avoid shadows that will make you strain your eyes.

Decorate:

Remember that, despite being a workplace, it can also be fun or be decorated to your liking. Plants, pencil holders, a pleasant air freshener, an inspiring wall decoration, a space in which to store and write down your ideas... are ideal for this purpose
