Whether your desk at home is used as your primary work space or simply for paying bills, it is important to create a home office environment where hours on end can be spent. This means filling the space with things that are functional and inspirational. It should be a place where the kids (and your furry companions) can set up shop too, because – let’s face it – they want to be where you are. So like every other space in a family home, the home office has to multi-task as much as you do. Sometimes that means rocking a toddler while you tap away on your keyboard.
