Home Office Furniture

Choosing the Right Furniture

As it is a space where you will spend a large amount of your day, make sure to choose pieces that are comfortable and versatile.

Fortunately, buying study furniture online is easy when you know where to look. Home Detail offers a great selection of home office furniture collections in a range of styles for you to choose from.

Ergonomic Office Chair

As you will spend most of your day seated, it is best to invest in a good quality chair that is going to properly support your body. Investing in a chair with lumbar support is recommended.

Your chair needs to be ergonomic, comfortable, and able to adjust to the correct height for your frame. An ideal office chair should be on wheels so that you can move in and out of your desk easily.

Other things to consider are the frame and material of the chair.

Frame

It needs a good frame with armrests that support the length of your arms. You do not want an office chair that is too big or worse, too small for your frame. It also needs to be height adjustable.

Material

The material that you choose for your chair is important too as you want to be comfortable, but not so much that you doze off to sleep while finishing off important client documents!

PU leather swivel office chairs with padded seats are always top sellers because they are durable and look stylish in just about any interior.

We have a great range of office chairs to complete your work area or study room furniture collection.

Desks

Choosing the ideal desk to work at from home allows you to get the most out of your workspace.

There are a number of things to consider when choosing a desk as it is one of, if not, the most important pieces in your home office space.

Ergonomic

A desk needs to be functional but ergonomic and comfortable too. Height is important because it impacts how you sit throughout the day — making a working day either comfortable or not.

Work desks need to be the correct size to fit all of your office table requirements too. You might consider a standing desk if sitting for hours on end causes you discomfort.

Size

Consider what you will need to place on your desk. A computer monitor and keyboard are just one element of your desk space, depending on the type of work you do.

If you're a designer, you may need additional space for planning or space for baskets and tools that need to be at hand.

Durable

One of the main features of a good desk is that it needs to be very durable and able to carry the weight of everything that needs to be put on it.

Wiring

Things such as wiring should also be taken into consideration as there is nothing worse than a bunch of loose wires just laying around on your floor.

Many office desks have allocated wire holes in the tabletop to accommodate this.

Storage

A good office storage solution for your home office can go a long way by making your area neat and your files easy to locate.

Drawers and shelving are great options to add to your wall and can be custom built to suit your storage needs. Filing cabinets have also come a long way from their old designs and can now perform their function while also adding a design component to your home workspace.

Storage is very important in a home office as this is where all of your important documents will be kept. You might want to add extra shelving to your walls for additional shelving.

Details

There is a range of add-ons that you can add to your office to change up the look and feel of the room. A contemporary piece of art on the wall or a vibrant rug to show some personality perhaps?

Office furniture, as a whole, may seem a bit drab at times, but you can easily mix the styles of your work and home life to create a workspace oasis.

Style

The style of your office desk, chairs and other furniture need to fit seamlessly into the room's other furniture and feel. Colours and a mix of designs and materials will elevate your room and make working from home much more enjoyable.

Comfort

There is more to a home office than chairs and desks — comfort is key.

It is all about putting pieces of home office furniture together to reflect your work style but still be comfortable enough so that you are happy enough to complete your work tasks.

Location, Location, Location

Where will you place your home office? A quiet corner in your living room or bedroom? Or is there a dedicated work room in your house?

A good location makes all the difference when working from home. Your workspace needs to be comfortable and away from distractions.

Consider the space and lighting when setting up. Ideally, you want plenty of natural light as artificial light can tire your eyes. You also need to make sure to be near a power plug.

If you are always on call or your job requires you to have clients come to your workspace then a separate area, completely away from your family area is ideal.
