Planning and set the home office design
Perhaps you have a spare room that you can transform into an office or you can a space in an unused corner of your home. Is the space going to work with other activities that take place in your home?
Start with where the basics will go, the desk, the chair, the filing cabinet and other furniture you may need. Importantly look at where the power will come from for your computer and other electrical appliances you may need. Check where the light comes from, do your windows supply enough good sunlight? Are you going to be working when it is dark? This will help your decided what type of lights to have installed.
Setting up also includes ergonomic office furniture, good lighting and convenient located power points. A good office chair and proper designed desk are essential. Get the height right if you are spending long periods of time at your desk your body will thank you for it in the long run.
Start adding the essentials; computer, phone lamps, stationary. Then finish by adding the rest; printer, filing cabinet, perhaps a plant to add some life and a wall print.
