Home office ideas

Finding space for a home workstation can be challenging. You might need room for multiple screens, a printer and any other essential accessories.

Need room for lots of equipment or multiple screens? Choose from our selection of wide office desks.

Working with limited space? Find a narrow workstation that's the perfect for your home.

Corner desks are a great compromise between space saving and extra storage and desk space.

 Keep things neat and tidy with a storage desk. Perfect for keeping paperwork organised and out of the way.

Want your office furniture to stand out or just want to match your workstation to your home decor? Here's some of our favourite picks.

• Solid wood and wood effect desks are a classic choice - and can be the perfect match for a kitchen or living room.
• Go for something different with a metal or glass topped desk, offering sleek and sophisticated style.
• Brighten up your home office with a desk that adds a pop of colour. Take a look at our pink, blue and red options, or choose something more traditional like black, white or grey.
• Go from work to play and double up your desk with a game station with these gaming desks.

Most office chairs have some level of adjustability – usually allowing you to change the height, tilt and arm rests.

These ergonomic features are ideal if you're sat at a desk for several hours a day. They provide a level of comfort and support that helps to reduce stress, therefore increasing productivity and efficiency.

An ergonomic office desk is one that allows you to remain comfortable whilst using it for longer periods of time.

This can also refer to sit-stand or standing desks, that help to alleviate the health risks you may encounter from prolonged sitting.

Having the right computer accessories can help to keep your hands and wrists comfortable whilst working for long periods of time. They can help reduce the risk of health issues such as carpal tunnel syndrome.

Other accessories, such as footrests under your desk, can also help to maintain an ideal posture to prevent any aches or pains.

• Your eyes should be level with the top of your computer monitor.
• Your back and neck should not be bent or hunched.
• Your shoulders should feel relaxed.
• Your hips and knees should be at a 90° angle and feet firmly on the floor.
• Your wrists shouldn’t be bent and your arms should sit on the armrests.

With an adjustable office chair you can change the width, height and tilt to suit your needs. As well as sitting in the correct position, it’s important to take regular breaks and move around, so you're sitting in an office chair for long periods of time.

You could even consider a standing desk, which allows you to work on your feet, as well as sitting down.

• Take regular screen breaks to give your eyes a rest.
• Stretch your legs a few times a day, including a walk outside.
• Throw the curtains and windows open for some fresh air and sunlight. 
• Keep your desk tidy and clutter-free.
• Stay hydrated by keeping a drink at your side all day.
• Stay active with some indoor exercise - anyone for chair yoga?
• Create a harmonious atmosphere with soothing scents and faux plants.
• Arrange social events with colleagues, like a virtual coffee break or quiz.
