How to Design Your Home Office
When it comes to creating you home office design from scratch, there is a lot to consider. Firstly, identifying the best location is paramount. Spare rooms can make great home offices, but if you don't have a spare room then you may want to consider when a loft or garage conversion is feasible to give you the space you need. If not, then you might want to look into creating a garden office or adding extra square footage with an extension.
Once you've decided on the space you will need to ensure you have adequate power outlets, internet connection and light (both natural and artificial). If you are looking for inspiration, check out these brilliant home office design ideas.
