Tips for a Calming Workspace
Whether working from home, or from the office, a considered, calming workspace will aid you to keep focused throughout the day. Here are a few tips to help you re-think your own desk.
Light a candle for an instantly relaxing effect. An LED tea light, hidden within a votive candleholder, is an equally impactful, plus worry-free option.
Choose a desk lamp with a design or colour you enjoy, so it is both functional and decorative.
Store any pens within a lovely container. Try putting a standard tin pen holder within a mini basket, for a more natural, and therefore calming, vibe.
Bring life to your workspace with a low-maintenance plant, such as a tropical monstera deliciosa, which thrives indoors in colder climes. It’s been said that plants, both real and fake, have a relaxing effect on us.
Display subtle, non-distracting objects and artwork, to decorate your space. Try dried coral, or a landscape painting.
Drape a sheepskin or cosy blanket over your seat. It’ll cushion you as you work away for hours, and it will bring character to your space, too.
Keep it airy! Try to keep your workspace clutter-free. Any extra paper clips can be stored in drawers, or elsewhere.
