I recently started to work remotely full-time, and I haven't touched this room. I don't like the feel when I walk in to work, but I'm overwhelmed by making upgrades (terrible when having too many options). Any little help would be SO appreciated! 35M if that helps. And yes, keeping a chair nearby for my assistant is mandatory :)
My thoughts/questions:
- Desk Position? I'm on a lot of zoom meetings, so the background and lighting is important. I thought about having my computer face the little alcove where the keyboard is and having a nice background there with shelves and whatnot, but then that awkwardly closes off the rest of the room. Currently, though, my background faces a door and a little wall and it isn't great (second pic).
- Paint? I would love a lighter, warm feel. Considering painting it a light green or something? Also I see a lot of accent walls, but unsure if that would be the move.
- Decor? Depending on the desk position, I think shelves would be nice, plants, something for the walls, better lighting.. I'm especially terrible at this one
Any help or direction on where to start would be very much appreciated!
