Like at home: 11 things that transform your workplace

We rarely think about it, but at work we spend most of the day and every week. We talk about a few things that will help decorate the most boring workplace and thanks to which it will be much more pleasant to spend time in the service.

Pots for plants Maria Ovanesovna

Even on the smallest desktop there is a place for a flower, and three small clay pots Maria Ovanesovna are the best option. They are sold with succulent plants that are easy to care for. There are drainage holes in the pots, and they are put on a special tray - so you can not be afraid that the water after irrigation will flood important working papers. The only negative is the relatively high price, which, however, is due to manual work.

IKEA Plaid

The plaid is primarily associated with the gatherings at home, but in the office it is also useful - especially on cold autumn days, until the heating is turned on. Ideal in terms of price and quality, plaids should be looked for in IKEA - the size of the Henrik rug, for example, allows you to wrap yourself in it even with your head. Another plus is that it can be washed in a washing machine.

Footrest

An inexpensive thing that will change the quality of your office life: a stand reduces the load on your legs, back and neck, helps you sit more comfortably at your desk and get less tired after a working day. The position and tilt of the stand can be adjusted, and thanks to the comfortable surface, the shoes on it do not slip.

Mug Zara Home

Whatever one may say, one cannot do without one’s own mug in the office - especially during the cold season, when one wants to drink only hot tea and coffee. Instead of simple mugs from IKEA you can find, for example, this one in Zara Home. And if you do not mind making a little more effort to order, you can buy a very nice cup of corgi from Anthropologie.

Umbra Desk Clock

We hope you are not one of those who each time with anguish counts the hours until the end of the working day - but you need to keep track of office time anyway. Umbra table clock looks simple, but unusual: their dial is made of metal, and the stand is made of wood. Hours from the usual AA battery work - the main thing is not to forget to change it in time, and even the most interesting working day will seem like an eternity.

Espresso Coffee Maker Alessi

If you have a kitchen and a stove in your office, you should look at a geyser coffee maker - for example, Alessi. It takes a little space and is designed for one cup, which is very convenient in the office. If there is no possibility to use the stove at work, the simplest and most convenient option for the office is the capsule coffee machine: you can save money by throwing it on with your colleagues.

Table lamp Urban Outfitters

A good desk lamp in the office is absolutely necessary: it will help preserve vision and will be useful in the autumn days when it brightens late and darkens early. The minimalist lamp Urban Outfitters will look appropriate in almost any office, also available in two colors: black and gold. If you want a little more variety in the interior, you can try to highlight the shelves with long fluorescent lamps.

Board for photos and notes Umbra

One of the easiest ways to feel at work at home is to decorate the workplace with your favorite photos. The easiest and most accurate way to do this is by hanging a special board - for example, a white Umbra. Notes and photos on it can be attached with buttons and magnets that are included. Here you can collect mindboards or keep yourself reminders. There is plenty of room for fantasy with note boards. Instead of this, you can buy a simple magnetic tape for recordings or a panel for photographs, and you can search for a minimalistic grid for notes and snapshots.

H & M Newspaper Stand

Instead of a boring paper tray, we offer another way to cope with the incessant document flow: for example, you can put on the table several coasters for newspapers from the grid - while the contents of each of them will be clearly visible. They are available in two colors: black and gold.

1299 rub.

Suck UK Cork Globe

Nowhere are thoughts about vacation and travel visiting us as often as at the office table. It will be easier to dream with a desktop globe from a cork: you can mark on it with clerical buttons the places you want to go or have already been, or you can use it more prosaically - to fasten notes, notes or photos.

Sketchbook-notebook Vivid Paper Co.

Although paper notes are gradually becoming a thing of the past, beautiful stationery is one of the easiest ways to make office life more fun. You can look at the holder for the clips in the form of a unicorn, beautiful banks for office trivia, or pencils with a nice pattern. We advise also to pay attention to the lined notebook with marble pattern Vivid Paper Co. - because of its small size, it is convenient to take it with you. If you don't want to place an order for Etsy, you can find similar notebooks from the Russian brand Voodoo Books.
