A home is a place where you unwind and relax after a hard days’ work. But what happens when you’re working from home? How do you switch from ‘home mode’ to ‘work mode’? How do you get inspired to work as efficiently as you would in an office? Amidst the cosy home environment, you need a functional home office setup that offers you the privacy and inspiration to work efficiently.

The possibilities of creating a home office setup are endless, especially if you’re staying in the luxurious flats at Beverly Golf Avenue, the newest residential property in Mohali. To help you curate a productive workspace, we have come up with some interesting ideas. So make a perfect office setting and start working the right way.

Essentials

Stop slouching on your desk!

The most important aspect of working from anywhere is a comfortable desk and chair. It is extremely important to take care of your back and neck as sitting all day can be damaging for your posture. Standing desks and ergonomic office chairs are getting popular for this very reason. These are designed to provide maximum support to your back, minimizing the back and neck pain and making it easier for you to focus on your work.

Keyboard, mouse, chair and other ergonomic office accessories help alleviate stress and increase comfort. This helps you stay focused and at ease, thereby increasing  your productivity.

Sweet tunes and plenty of light

To make work-from-home more interesting and calming, music is often considered an effective tool. Music therapy is a great way to re-energize. Various studies prove that those who worked while listening to music were far more productive and delivered quality material in the given time as compared to those who did not. Get some good speakers and fill your workspace with your favourite music. It’ll help you concentrate better.

Another addition to your work desk can be a soft light desk lamp. Natural light during the day has a positive effect on both mental and physical health. But on days when you’re burning the midnight oil and stressing about work, the calm, yellow light from the desk lamp can lift your spirits. Not only does the warm glow of the lamp contribute to a less stressful ambience but also help your eyes focus better and avoid strain, fatigue, headaches and blurred vision.

Smart helpers

Do you know what else makes working from home effective? A smart assistant.

It can sometimes be difficult to remember meetings, deadlines, video conferences etc. every day. But to stay on top of everything you do is important. This is where smart assistants can be of immense help. Whether you choose Alexa or Google Assistant or Siri, you can be sure you’ll never miss another appointment. These assistants help you book meetings, calls, make to-do lists and even look up facts for you so you don’t have to stress about trivial things anymore.

Work. Stretch. Work.

For many companies, work-from-home means work 24X7.  This can take a toll on physical as well as mental health. To combat this problem, you can keep a yoga mat in the corner and every once in a while, get up from your sedentary position and stretch. Or if you have little time on your hands, you can always remain sitting, close your eyes and meditate as well. It’ll rejuvenate you, relieve stress and improve your posture and mood.

Time off your screen

Staring at the screen can be exhausting for your eyes, which is why keeping a diary or a whiteboard for jotting down lists, meetings, to-dos etc. can be a great way to take time off your screen. With a whiteboard, you can play with ideas, brainstorm, doodle, write outlines and do so much more. Going analogue is fun and less damaging to your eyes.

Calming additions

Last but not the least, add some greenery to your workspace. Plants aren’t mere decorations, but rather big contributors to fresh air and are therapeutic. Indoor plants like the snake plant, money plant, aloe vera etc. can brighten up your desk, manage stress, and increase productivity considerably.

Aromatherapy is also a powerful tool for managing our physical and mental state. Our power of smell helps immensely in coping with stress and anxiety. So keep some scented candles or a humidifier with essential oils, and work in a relaxed environment.

 Room with a view

A picturesque view from where you’re working is always pleasing. Not only does a view help in productivity but also contribute towards personal wellbeing. Make sure your work desk is placed in a room that has a scenic view.

The perfect home office setup is the one that helps you channelize your energy efficiently, is calming, and doesn’t harm your posture. To be productive, you must have a proper workspace, especially if you have kids or pets to look after. And to have a proper workspace, you need a spacious home.
