“FOR A PERFECT BALANCE, KEEP ENERGETIC
COLOURS IN YOUR PERIPHERY, WHILE STICKING TO A MORE SUBDUED LOOK FOR THE DESK.”
you can truly indulge your taste and have the freedom to express your personality in the decoration of your ‘office’. In an open-plan space, zone an area with a stunning wall mural, or cork tile an expanse of wall so you can pin up inspiring photos or to-do lists. Alternatively, paint a wall with black chalkboard paint, to transform it into a wipeable surface for scribbling ideas, plans, or simply expressing yourself. TIP: If you fancy it, don’t be afraid to incorporate pattern and colour into your office scheme. Research has found that both can actually help keep you creative and stimulated at work. For a perfect balance, keep energetic colours in your periphery, while sticking to a more subdued look for the desk.

KILL THE CLUTTER Keeping a tidy office is crucial to
staying on top of things. Organising and filing loose papers means you’ll spend less time searching for them - coping with clutter is a big time-waster. Filing cabinets, desks with compartments, and accessible floating shelves for file boxes are a good investment. Don’t let a notice board be all to-do lists and bills though, or you won’t ever want to look at it. TIP: Keep everyday essentials close to hand, so there’ll be less temptation to get up and wander. If you know you’ll need frequent caffeine top-ups, you could even keep a little coffee- maker or kettle near the desk, and a mini-fridge stocked with cold drinks.
