Although, realizing that all you probably need is a computer, a phone, and a desk area.
However, “being happy and being comfortable in your home” office goes way beyond the basics.
1 Just think of it, you are in your home office space for how many hours a day? A lot, right? So make it a room that you enjoy being in. And this leads us to the first question, what type of design style do you lean towards? An important question because a Boho enthusiast would probably be less likely to enjoy a Minimalist Design and vice-a-versa.

2 Second, how do you use your room? Within this question, there are many facets. For a home office space questions such as what type of work you do, seating capacity, double-duty requirements, technical requirements, storage needs. As you can see, each of these questions has many off-shoots of their own. For example, if you are in sales, do you need additional storage?
