All of us agree that home is that one place where we rewind ourselves from a hard day’s work.
But what about those whose homes are their offices?
Yes, a major chunk of today’s generation likes to keep it cool and homely. Instead of working the conventional nine to five shift, they believe in working at their terms and in their own time.
These home based entrepreneurs have set the balls rolling by setting their own style statements.
However, offices should appear professional, no matter where they are situated.
This is because the productivity is seriously affected if the workplace does not provide the required ambience. Thus, your home office must comprise all the elements which are present in a conventional office.
This will not only imprint a positive credibility to your clients, it will also help you boost up your work productivity.
Setting up your home office is similar to furnishing the rest of your house. There should be adequate levels of creativity with a precise regard for the designing themes to be put to use.
Make sure the kind of interior decoration you select is in league with your budget. You can get an estimated price for your office by an expert or you can scout online to settle upon your choice of affordable home offices.
In case you are looking for inspiration, here are the offices of some of the world’s big bloggers who work from home. Innovate your home with some of their décor to give your office that sizzling professional appearance.

15. Pat Flynn Home Office:
Pat Flynn from MyPassiveIncome made this video showcasing his home office. What I liked about his home-office is, it’s made for productivity. He has customized every corner of his home office for various tasks. Watch his home-office video, and you will get few ideas for your own office:
As you can see, all bloggers have one thing in common. They love to keep their work spaces uncluttered. A clean and welcoming work space increases the productivity exponentially.
The ambiance of the room should be positive and healthy. Not to mention, the work time should be such that there is no or least distraction due to external factors. When it comes to furnishing choices, you can choose from a wide variety of materials available.
If you like the earth, wood can give a rustic look to your furniture. If you are into the modern, a little glass and sleek metal drawers and cabinets will jazz up your place.
To sum it up, there are endless possible combinations, to begin with. All you need is a taste for class and a keen observation for the options that are most feasible.
Mix that with some expert advice and voila, you will build a dream workplace for others to envy! I will be sharing pictures of my workspace when it’s ready to be shared.
Till then, If you have set up a creative office space at your home, feel free to share with us on our Facebook page.
