Everyone is heading back to the office, so what can you do to make it feel like home? Start by researching office decor ideas for work, as a space that you want to be in will increase productivity, boost your spirits, and ensure you’re prepared to seize the day.

Even if the area you have is on the smaller side, you can still make it a place that inspires you and gets your creative juices flowing. From bringing in the right colors to signs that affirm your personal motto, you have the power to curate a little slice of work paradise.

5 Tips for Personalizing Your Office Space

1. Colors

The colours that you select for your office set the overall tone. Consider shades that inspire productivity, like blue, which activates your brain, or yellow, which generates enthusiasm. 

Purple can make you feel more confident, while orange can prevent boredom. Or you can go with a personal favourite hue that makes you feel happy.

2. Artwork

Complement your colour scheme with artwork that keeps you going throughout the day. If you’re a classical art aficionado, tack up postcards of your favourite paintings. If you prefer nature photographs, those bring in a serene energy.

Art doesn’t have to be expensive to make a room look great, so hang what brings you joy.

3. Personal touches

Make your workspace your own with objects that have personal meaning to you. That can come in the form of shells you collected on a beach vacation, stickers that make you smile, cute desk lamps, you name it.

This can include framed pictures of loved ones and meaningful cards they sent you.

4. Plants

Plants are scientifically proven to make offices more harmonious, healthy, and productive, which means they’re perfect for your desk. Even if you don’t get a lot of light, there are options that will thrive in any environment.

Fresh flowers are another excellent addition, so don’t be afraid to send yourself some!

5. Motivational Signs

Our favourite office decor idea for work is to hang signage that reflects your personal motto or that inspires you. Maybe you need to remind yourself to have courage, or you just want a little sass to keep you motivated.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of options that elevate any space.

Marie Kondo taught all of us what it means to spark joy, even in the depth of a pandemic that changed our world. Those two words can remind you what really matters and motivate you to chase it. Plus, an office without joy is an office no one wants to work in.
