If you have a spare room then creating your ideal home office is easy.  However the likelihood is you will be sharing space in a room, but overhauling a bedroom for a total office refurbishment is not normally going to happen, however with a little forethought you can create a home office virtually anywhere.

• Add plenty of storage; never underestimate how much storage you will need.  List all the items you are currently going to need to store and increase, as there will always be new items added and also items you have forgotten.  Storage solutions could be wall shelves to divan drawers if your office space is in the bedroom.
• Ensure your desk is large enough for your needs; ideally your desk will be home to your computer and also contain drawers and other storage needs.  Look for functionality, the more it can hold, the less space you will need overall.
• Your chair is also an important area to consider, firstly if you are going to spending a lot of time at your desk make sure you choose a supportive chair with good back support.  Secondly, if the chair is going to be used by other members of the family, make sure it is adjustable to suit all heights and leg length.
• Ideally, the flooring of the office space should be hardwearing, if you are using a chair on wheels, think about using a vinyl or laminate just for that area, otherwise it won’t be easy to manoeuvre the chair into position.
• If your office is in a main room of the house and you don’t want it to be on show all the time, consider purchasing a screen or even a room divider.
