Having a special space set aside for our necessary equipment can bring on a multitude of design challenges. For some, the kitchen table is the perfect place to create your “home office”. For others, it’s important to have a space, set apart from the home activities, where you can get away and focus on the work at hand.
Space – the right amount – becomes your first priority. A room that doubles as a guest room and office might be the perfect place to begin creating your work space at home. Perhaps this room’s closet space could be reconfigured to allow for the necessary office equipment. By removing the shelves and clothes bar, you’d be surprised how much additional office space you might uncover! And when you close those closet doors in the evening, your work is hidden from view.
Many furniture manufacturers carry beautiful office armoires that are large enough to house computers. And the beauty of these stately furniture pieces is that they too can be closed when work is through. Large units are available, as well as space saving corner armoires.
Wit a little creative space planning, you can come up with a workspace solution that doesn’t revolve around your kitchen table.
