What are essentials for a home office?
I want to convert a section of our home basement into a home office? What are essentials to creating an excellent home office environment?
The first step in creating a home office plan that works is to evaluate what you plan to do in the space.
A home office can have different zones for various tasks, equipment, and furniture needs. A desk and computer area may be one zone, while bookshelves, storage, and filing are another.
Furnishings. Make sure that you allow for adequate desk space for your equipment, and space to store materials, records and supplies.
Outlets. Are there enough electrical outlets to safely accommodate all of your business equipment (computer, telephone, copier, fax, clock and desk lamps)
Invest in a second phone line for your office.
Choose bright colors that will reflect light and keep you in a productive mood.
you'll need some sort of bookshelf-or shelves-and file drawers that are easily accessible without you having to get up.
Bulletin and chalk boards are a great way to keep home office reminders front and center.
accessories like pencil holders and divided containers.
personal art and pictures, family portraits.
A computer, desk chair and obvious things like that also.
Plants help make it more inviting.
Warm lighting, stay away from fluorescent lighting.
