As you know, the current trend in interior decoration is for clean lines. Even so, it must be said that it’s not always easy to apply all the principles of the minimalist approach in an office space.
Between all the files and documents, the computer, and all the other tech devices we use, organising a work space can be challenging. We will give you all the tips and tricks you need to succeed (and boost your productivity while you’re at it).
Step 1 : time for some spring cleaning !
Yes, the first but not least important piece of advice for optimising your office and your working environment is to start by tidying up and putting away all the clutter you accumulate when you work long hours. And don’t hesitate to throw away anything that’s not essential and that you no longer use (those documents and files that have been sitting on your desk for two years, for example!).
Our top tip to help you decide what you need to keep : ask yourself what you use regularly and what is just lying around gathering dust. Picking out the truly important things will help you deal with a lot of the clutter on your desk and in your office.
Step 2 : cupboards for bespoke storage space
Now you have tidied up your space, you can think about how to fit it out ! So how should you do that to make the most of every square metre? There’s a whole host of bespoke storage solutions for tidying away your folders, papers and office equipment. Read on to find out more !
Do you need storage cupboards for your office ? We will point you in the right direction !
We have loads of storage ideas to share with you. Do you want to find out more ? Let’s get started !
- Leave no corner unused ! Even the wall above your desk can be optimised. With a shelf, for example, for a few books or decorative objects (like that lovely trailing house plant we all dream about).
- You can never have enough storage cupboards with hinged doors ! They enable you to tidy away (or hide, it depends…) everything you don’t want other people to see. What’s more, èggo can design bespoke cupboards tailored to your walls (under a sloping ceiling, for example).
- Design is all about aesthetics ! A sure-fire winner is to combine closed cupboards and open niches for a stylish, on-trend look.
- Do you own a lot of books ? You need some bookcases !
Step 3 : your imagination is limitless !
In practical terms, there is a huge range of accessories to help you tidy and organise your work space. These include storage boxes, compartments for documents or mail, and pencil holders. So give your imagination free rein as you optimise your office.
- Create dedicated areas : one for your personal objects (a photo of your children or your dog), one for papers and other documents, and one for tech devices. A place for everything, and everything in its place !
- Do you handle a large number of documents as part of your job, and find they end up all piled up in a jumble ? Think about a filing system. This will help you separate out the documents to be processed, to be kept, or to be thrown away.
- Drawer dividers are not just for walk-in wardrobes ! Do you have drawers built into to your storage units ? Divide them up into neatly organised sections.
