Open for a guide to your dream workspace. | Home Office Lighting Guide | | | Just as important as the desk and chair, proper home office lighting is an integral step toward carving out a productive space to work from home. | | | In a Home Office | | Overly harsh fluorescent lighting is draining for your eyes and is a trigger for migraines. Dim lighting is just as bad, and can cause eye strain and headaches. So, here are some simple steps to take to brighten up your workspace—whether it's at home or in a corporate setting. | | Having a home office means having the flexibility of designing your own set-up. While you may pay more attention to the styling, it's a good idea to take into account the ergonomics of your environment, including your modern office lighting. | | | | | | Address Overhead Lighting | | Overhead lighting isn't the greatest office lighting source—and it shouldn't be the sole source—but it can help fill in places that other sources of light seem to miss. Take the opportunity to switch out your boring overhead lighting for something fun. | | | | | | Add a Task Light | | Nothing beats a classic desk lamp. These lamps are key to bringing everything into focus. Desk lamps that have a flexible arm are ideal since you can adjust their height and angle to suit the task at hand. But task lighting alone can quickly give you eyestrain. | | | | | | Finish with Ambient Light | | Eye strain is a serious problem, one that happens from intense use like staring at a computer monitor for eight hours. Throwing a little ambient light into the mix will help soften the harsh light that can come from just overhead or task lighting. | | | | | | Integrate Your Own Task + Ambient Lighting | | You can modify your lighting setup inside your cubicle with portables. If you don't have a lot of desk space, look for lights that are more compact, or even clip onto the side of your desk. Just remember that you're sharing spaces with people, so be sure that all your additional lighting won't disturb your neighbor. | | | | | | Favorites | | Your personal "My Favorites" list organizes everything you love in one or multiple lists to make it easy to group items you're shopping for or simply revisit the things you love in one easy click. | | | | | | Project Manager | | Use our Project Manager tool to organize, store and share your current projects, whether remodeling, redecorating or looking for inspiration.
