There are many desks to work standing or sitting and IKEA itself has interesting proposals such as the series Bekant, Skarsta, Rodulf or Idåsen. Each of them has its own peculiarities, advantages and disadvantages, but in general they offer that ability to work as you feel more comfortable at all times.
Similarly, finding a chair that you are comfortable with for long periods of time is also important. Although the ideal is that you do not spend more time sitting than is really necessary. So, here again it is to do some searching until you find the best chair to work for you.
IKEA accessories for comfortable work from home
Now that you have your table and chair, that you also have the necessary equipment to carry out your professional activity from home, let’s see some accessories that you can find at IKEA and that will help you enjoy a more pleasant experience.
EILIF, separate from the rest of the house
When you work from home, unless you live alone, it is important to be able to isolate yourself while doing your activity. In small homes it is not always possible to have a separate room and even if you have it is interesting to be able to parting with whoever may be working with you.
In many offices there are the famous cubicles. Although it is not the idea, because open spaces offer advantages when working, it is true that being able to improve yourself a bit is attractive. For this, at IKEA there are the EILIF panels that give you that option and incidentally, due to their design and materials, they can also be useful to control the rebound of the sound a bit. The latter is interesting if you dedicate yourself to podcast or video topics.
ELLOVEN, a memo board on wheels
For creative users, for those who organize using numerous notes, etc., there are the new wheel boards ELLOVEN. These allow you to have a double-sided vertical space that you can move wherever you go and it is interesting.
TROTTEN
Continuing with the theme of the notes, this other note board called TROTTEN is also interesting if you work from home. Because you can place it where it is most comfortable for you to see and always have your next goals or useful information for the project or work you are carrying out at that time in view.
At IKEA there are more note boards, some metallic to place magnets and others made of cork or fabric for pushpins, but these two recent proposals (TROTTEN and ELLOVEN) seem the most striking and attractive by design.
SUMMERA
This other accessory that you can find at IKEA is a SUMMERA organizer with six compartments that you can place in different drawers (can be cut to fit the size of the drawer). In it you can place all that material such as pens, clips, scissors or even batteries, chargers, etc., that you may need in an orderly manner.
In addition, an interesting detail is that due to the type of material in which it is manufactured, the noises caused by dropping these objects as well as possible scratches on the surface of the drawer are avoided.
Flexo TERTIAL
We have mentioned it on more than one occasion and we have to keep talking about it. It may not be the most aesthetic of all those offered by the brand, but the TERTIAL flexo it is the most versatile. You can fix it to the table or place it on the wall. There are so many possibilities that the result is a very versatile lighting solution to have that extra light where and when you need it. Even if the only thing you are looking for is to have an indirect light that helps you make working time more pleasant.
Björkåsen, a table to change the environment
Finally, even if you work from home and have a space dedicated solely and exclusively to your professional activity, it is good to be able to change the environment as you would in the office. Sometimes just to have a coffee and regain strength, others to do other less demanding activities in concentration such as checking email.
You can do this in the kitchen at home or wherever you want, but since the idea is to be comfortable, a good option is to bet on this new laptop stand or laptop table from IKEA. It’s about the model Björkåsen.
This can be adjusted in height, also tilted to find the ideal position when writing with the laptop and, as if that were not enough, it also has so that you can place your cup of coffee, tea or other drink that you are drinking.
Other furniture to consider for your home office
To finish adapting your home office, nothing better than accompanying all this with a closet or shelving that allows you to save all those possible documents and other information that you generate.
For this you can use what you already have at home or opt for furniture designed for use in offices such as the Bekant series from IKEA. Here there is no longer a precise recommendation, because there are factors such as the space of each house that influence. Therefore, it is a job that you will have to do, but with what we recommend your workspace will improve quickly.
