Working from home involves some adjustments. For one, you will likely need to create a dedicated office space. Without the right organizational tools and office furniture, it can make it harder to be productive. The guide below offers advice for arranging your setup.

How to Create a Comfortable & Organized Home Office

1. Invest in a Good Office Chair

An ergonomic chair makes it easier to sit for long periods without serious back pain and muscle cramps. High-quality office chairs are fully adjustable—from the seat height to the angle of the backrest. When shopping, look for one with added lumbar support, a swivel base, and moveable armrests.

Alternatively, invest in a convertible standing desk that will allow you to do some of your work while on your feet. This gives your lower back a rest, helps you burn more calories over the course of the day, and can improve your mood by helping you be less sedentary.

2. Keep Your Screen Elevated

It can also reduce eyestrain since your work will mostly be at eye level. However, laptop screens are lower than desktop monitors, forcing you to look down while you’re working. If that is what you use, purchase a stand that will help elevate it.

3. Choose the Right Lighting

Some people prefer to work in a dark environment with low-contrast screens, while others like bright workspaces and natural light. Whatever you like better, spending time adjusting the lighting to your comfort level will minimize eye fatigue.
