The Organised Home Office
With more and more of us working from home, creating a home office is often a necessity rather than a luxury. But if you don't have a spare room to convert, don't worry - all you really need is to cut down on clutter with clever and practical storage ideas and you'll be feeling businesslike in no time.
If you're thinking of setting up a home office in a spare corner of your home, you don't really want piles of paperwork and office equipment to clutter up the room. Better to hide it away when it's not in use behind some sliding doors.
These can either be built wall-to-wall to provide tons of storage space to disguise your clutter, or even blanked off at one end so you don't have to cover the whole length of the wall, leaving room for maybe a desk. The best range around is by a company called Stanley. Their new Home Office range of sliding doors offers both a practical and chic storage solution that will help you organize your workspace.
The contemporary collection will let you hide away your office in an alcove or wall space in any room in the house - whether it's in the bedroom, dining room or living room - so you can store files, books and filing without compromising your room's streamlined look
Available in neutral, grey, red, lilac and burgundy colour options, with a choice of frosted mirror glass, linen effect, white and light wood design combinations, the range also comes with a selection of coordinating units for the interior, including smart shelving and drawer packs that are ideal for organizing stationery or storing important paperwork.
Prices start at £57.99 for a single door and they're available from Homebase and all good DIY and home improvement stores. For details of your nearest stockist call (0114) 276 4099.
