Love Working From Home With Help From Lowe’s

When it comes to creating a smart workspace in your home, you may have to think outside of the box. Especially if other people in the house are doing the same. That’s why it pays to take a critical inventory of your existing floor plan.

Get Creative

If you don’t have a traditional office space, look at your home with fresh eyes and think about the places you may be able to create a workspace.

Are you able to take over the dining room with a traditional desk and comfortable office chair? If that’s not an option, you may be able to slide the dining table over and add a small desk and desk hutch to make the room multipurpose.

Is there a closet with double bifold doors that could be cleaned out? Refill it with a small office desk, file cabinet and bookcase to create a cleverly disguised workspace.

What about a forgotten nook? This makes a smart space for a corner bookshelf and a small, custom-built desk.

Embrace the Power of Paint

An effective workspace is more than a desk and office chair. It’s a space where you feel inspired and energized, and paint plays a huge part.

Do a bit of research on color therapy to find out what paint color you need for maximum motivation. If you’re the creative type, a fresh green accented with metallics may give you the boost you need to produce quality work throughout the day. If you’re in finance or another high-stress role, a soothing blue may help maintain a more Zen-like state.

If you’re a renter or don’t want to commit to paint, try a temporary wallpaper. Today’s peel-and-stick options offer inspiration that’s easy to change.

Seek Functional Home Fashions

When choosing furniture for your office, don’t lose sight of style. Lowe’s sells a variety of desks, chairs and smart storage solutions, like lateral file cabinets, ranging from traditional to modern.

And rest assured, an office ergonomic chair doesn’t have to be plain or boring. In fact, we offer a myriad of colors and patterns to suit your taste. We even sell trendy white office chairs to help you re-create your favorite influencer’s look in your own home.

Add Accessories

Accessories put the finishing touch on a home office that’s fashionable and functional. That’s why we offer monitor risers, whiteboards, corkboards, paper sorters and wall organizers to help create an orderly space.

Don’t forget to add a little life to your space with a real or faux plant. Lowe’s offers selections for indoor gardening, as well as a collection of artificial plants and trees, to bring vibrance into your office.
