The IDUS Home Office
A well designed office can make the difference between a day that’s a triumph and a day that’s a waste…
In today’s scenario, our homes have become even more important than ever before. We are now doing everything from home — work from home, school from home, working out from home, entertainment from home … suddenly, we have a completely home-centric life! So how is our home coping with the number of roles that have been suddenly thrust on it?
Creating a home office that works
A few keywords that make for an efficient and well set up home office:
1. Flexibility
Home offices need to double as meeting rooms, conference call centres, think spots and work desks. So you need to keep all these functions in mind when choosing a space as well as furniture for your home office.
2. Room to move
You need some manoeuvrability as you deftly juggle between roles. Keep in mind that you need quick and easy access to documents, books, laptop and other devices.
3. Video-friendly corner
In these days of constant video conferencing, you need a good looking nook. Set up a call-friendly corner where people can see a carefully curated space that’s both aesthetic and professional.
4. Storage
Things that you need should be at hand and easy to pull out in a hurry, when needed.
5. Technology supported
Today, we need technology more than ever before. It’s a real boon as we conduct all our work right from home. Make sure you have charging access, space for your tech set-up and ample desk space for the devices you use on a regular basis. No last minute scrambling to charge devices or place them in a manner that makes them convenient to work on.
The IDUS home office series offers an exclusively designed suite of desks and chairs that make working from home a breeze. Choose your location for a home office where you can work undisturbed and add a few handcrafted pieces.
Here are some ideas on how to carve out a great home office where business can be conducted efficiently, comfortably and reassuringly.

Comfort, ergonomic design and aesthetics that allow you to stay calm amidst all the stress and challenge of running a business is the need of the hour.

Location, location, location!
The criticality of a great location can never be over emphasised. This deceptively simple home office uses an airy nook to create a secluded corner for enhanced productivity. Glass doors and a large window allow for bountiful natural light and breezes. Flowers or oxygen-releasing plants can be used to keep the room’s green quotient high.

Small details do a great design make —the foot support across the length of this work table allows you to contemplate your decisions or an important business strategy by literally putting up your feet, resting them while you think.
