For this reason, you may want to make your gift more personalized so your parents or family will feel your sincerity even more heartfelt. And during these holidays, call them or make a videocall while opening your gifts so you all can enjoy your reactions when receiving your gifts from each other.

Are you working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic? Not knowing how long your remote work situation will last might leave you wondering how much effort you should put into creating a nice home office. Is it worth it to order fancy equipment or paint the walls? How much work do you need to put in to get a nice work-from-home space?

The place where we eat, sleep, or relax now is also our workplace. With the covid, the house has become a multifunctional space: people spend many more hours in their homes, which are now also offices. This has caused them to want to adapt them to the new situation, making them more comfortable areas.

From Tiekom we want to help you and give you some useful tips that you can buy for your home office. Before you sink too much time, effort, and money into this project, however, consider making a few simple tweaks to your existing setup to make it better. You can implement many of these suggestions immediately, often for little to no money. If they can help get you through the next few weeks (or months), you can reevaluate how much more you want to customize your homework space later on.

1. INTERNET CONNECTION

To be connected and to be able to work efficiently and quickly, as well as to be able to connect to videoconferences, it is essential to have a good internet provider with plans tailored to your needs, Customer Service in your language and the best service.

2. MOBILE PLAN

Also look for a good mobile plan because surely your mobile will now be the landline you had in the office. If you make international calls, you will be interested in looking for a company that offers you these plans

3. LIGHT

Move your desk close to the windows but place it parallel to the panes. This ideal set-up gives you the happiness benefits of natural light, and a good reason to turn away from your computer every few minutes to take in the scene.

Even with great natural light, you will still need additional lighting for darker hours of the day. Most overhead house lighting is inadequate for work. Try a few table lamps, which offer a nice soft glow and interesting design possibilities.

Tiekom also offers you the possibility of saving with your electricity bill

4. FOLLOW ERGONOMIC RULES

The top of your computer screen should be at eye level or a little below. Position your keyboard so your forearms are parallel to the floor. And adjust your chair so your feet rest firmly on something–the floor, or a footrest if you are short. Splurge on a chair that makes you want to put in the hours.

5. GET CREATIVE WITH STORAGE

Filing cabinets are not the most attractive pieces of furniture, but you do need a place to put papers you use frequently.

If you are the sort of person who needs to see something to remember it exists, try wall storage: magazine type racks, or children’s library-style display shelves.

If you need bookcases, get nice ones–big enough that you do not need to overstuff, and artful enough that they’ll look great as the backdrop in your video conferences. And if you are using the guest bedroom? It probably has a closet. Trick out that closet with a shelving system, so you minimize the need for storage in the main office area.

6. CREATE SOME COMFY SPACE

Your desk is for active work, but you probably need a place to think or read, too. A great home office has a nice comfy chair for curling up–potentially with an ottoman for your feet–plus a table for your coffee and a great lamp.

7. ADD GREENERY

Plants make people happier. It is like bringing what is outside your window into your space. Plus, since most plants can go a day or two without watering, you won’t have to go into your office on weekends (as you might need to if tending to other living things, like fish).

8. KEEP A CHARGER FOR YOUR DIVICES AT YOUR WORKSPACE.

That way, if the battery in your phone starts to run low, you will not be forced to take a lap around the house looking for a cord. In a best-case scenario, you would have a drawer in your desk where you could store charges. The next best place might be a decorative box or even an empty coffee mug that you like.

9. PREVENT CLUTTER FROM BUILDING UP.

There are no secret tricks to getting rid of clutter. There’s only prevention. And there is no secret to prevention either. Just do not put anything that isn’t necessary on your desk.
