How Do You Create A Home Office?
A home office can be as small as a folding file or as large as a room. If you’re running a business out of your home, you’ll obviously need much more space and equipment than a family looking for a corner to file papers and tend to correspondence. The important thing to remember about creating a home office is to make it suit your family’s needs. For example, if your children need to use a computer, you’ll want to set up space that can be shared — not a corner in your bedroom. Likewise, equipment and supplies should be selected for versatility. Creating Office Space • Use a wall or part of a wall to set up an office. If you’re extremely short on space, mount shelves on the top portion of a wall to store files and use a table that can be folded down. • Use a screen to set off a corner of a room and create office space. While not ideal, it may be the best space you can find. • Find a niche — under the stairs, on a landing, or in an odd-size room or hallway. Use a roll-down window blind
