Essential Tips for Organising Bookcases For Your Office



Are you unsure how to organise your bookcase to make it look its best? Whether the furniture is for your in-home or separate business office, here are essential tips to make the item look its best, so that it enhances your space.

Add Accessories for Variety
While it’s tempting to simply put books onto the shelves, it’s wise to add variety to the items you use to stock the shelves in ways that please the eye. Great accessories to use include vases, framed photos, figurines or candles. Spread them out across the shelves to balance out the books and create visual interest. If you have clients in your office, they will appreciate the efforts taken to decorate the space.

Choose Items that Reflect Your Business
While you could simply add random figurines and photos to the bookcase, be selective as to what you choose to include there. We suggest you pick items that reflect your business purpose as that will help the item blend into your office space well. If your business is a law firm, for example, you may want to include Lady Justice bookends. While your bookcase is functional as it holds your books, it also reflects and enhances your business reputation with the additional items you place on it.

Books: Types and Placement
Of course, the primary reason for a bookcase is usually for books. As with the accessories you choose, variety is important for the reading materials. Therefore, select a range of books that have different coloured covers and place them at different angles on the shelves to draw interest. For example, place books on the top shelf of the French Gardens 4 Shelf Bookcase horizontally and then put the ones on the shelf below it vertically. For this French Gardens furniture item, the shelves are easy to access, so it makes sense to select reference reading material for it that you and your staff access often.

Bookcases come in a range of design styles, dimensions and materials. By taking time with organising bookshelves, you can enhance the office space and also show your business style to clients.

3 Key Benefits for Corner Desks



Corner desks are growing in popularity for the home office or business workplace. Read below to find out the three key benefits of having a desk that fits an angled space.

1. Easy Access to Items
The primary advantage of using a corner desk over a straight desk is the ability to use table space on both sides of you. While a straight desk does offer space, you have to lean in your chair or move accessories, such as keyboard and mouse, to be able to use it.

With a corner desk, there is a wraparound area that makes it easy to reach items such as your printer. Not only do you avoid straining your back by reaching for objects throughout the day but you also save time as everything is quickly available within arm’s reach.

2. Perfect for Small Spaces
In addition, corner desks at home or within a business area make the most of small spaces. If you have a small room, they fit well into the corner, taking up less floor space overall than straight desks. They are excellent options for students in dorm rooms or small home offices.  

The French Gardens corner desk, for example, would suit a home office or bedroom. It has an overall width of 86cm, solid frame and has an antique pine effect finish. Storage space is maximized on this furniture piece with a raised monitor stand and integrated shelving. 

3.Corners are Not a Challenge
A corner is no longer a challenge with the L-shaped desk. Rather than leaving a corner bare as you don’t know how to decorate it, this style of desk fits well into the angle to complete the room. It provides a great space for storing papers, setting up computer equipment and is a big workspace. Solve your decor dilemma with this style of furniture, and it is highly functional as well.

To find your perfect style for the home or workplace, check out the selection of quality corner desks offered by At Home Furniture today. There is a range of attractive designs available at affordable prices.

5 Tips for Buying an Office Chair You Will Actually Want to Use



If you’ve ever purchased an office chair and found it to be uncomfortable, you’re not alone. Thankfully, this post will help you by providing top tips for buying an office chair that you actually look forward to using!

1. Look for Lumbar Support
If you will spend several hours at a time in the office chair, then it’s wise to choose one with lumbar support. With the back support feature in quality chairs, such as the Alpha Leather Office Chair from At Home Furniture, you are more likely to be able to feel comfortable and therefore stay focused more than if your back aches. 
 
2. Consider your Environment
Think about where you will sit in the chair. If the office is usually warm, for example, choose a chair with mesh material that lets air flow smoothly through it to keep you cool as you work. An excellent choice is the Alpha Mesh Office Chair with soft soft mesh back (it has lumbar support too).

3. Determine Price Range
Of course, you want to have a price range in mind before you head out shopping for the furniture. If you have a spending limit, determine what it is and stick to it. Also check with the manufacturer if there is a warranty for the seating item too as that may be an additional fee.

4. Colour and style
This chair is one you’re likely to want to use if it fits the decor of your business area. For example, for a modern space you might select the Bari Leather Faced business chair in white. It has top quality chrome finishes that accent the white leather for a contemporary look. It comes in black, as well.

5. Consider Wheels
If you move around quite a bit during your workday then having a chair with wheels is optimal. The wheels allow you to move easily within your office as you reach for items, and they are great to have if you work at multiple desks. 

The office chair you select is ideally one that you look forward to using during your workday. By following the above shopping tips, you are likely to find yourself fully satisfied at the time of purchase!
