The demand for a custom home office in Chicago has drastically increased in this modern era. Especially now, since the global pandemic covid-19 has changed the dynamic of the workplace and drastically increased the possibility of working from home, more people than ever are looking for a home office addition. A designated space for an office can truly keep your documents, mail and other tasks organized, not to mention make you more productive at your job. Whether you’re interested in making an office addition to your house or taking on a home office renovation, Silver Leaf Construction is at your service.

Things To Consider When Adding a Home Office

There are multiple factors that will contribute to a beautiful and most importantly, a functional office.

• Location - The location you designate for your home office may be the most important step in establishing your home office. Is it possible to designate an entire room to the office? Not everyone has this luxury, but this is the only way to ensure privacy by preventing any distractions from other people in your home. Designating an entire room is not necessary to establish a home office though. All you may need is a nook in the corner of your kitchen. It is up to you to decide what the best arrangement is for you.

• Connectivity - Wi-fi, electricity, phone. All of the essential office devices must be considered when setting up an office. Is your modem strong enough to reach the designated area of your home? Are there sufficient outlets/ power?

• Computer/ electronic Devices - Do you have the right equipment for a home office? There are many electronics to consider to make sure you have the office essentials. Computer, printer, scanner, monitors, phone etc. Your existing hardware & software may no longer be enough to support your work. Also, consider adding extra monitors which can elevate efficiency and facilitate multi-tasking.

• Furnishings - Considering the right furnishings is vital to achieve a functional and aesthetically pleasing space. You must consider the amount of space you have, the function, your personal style & your budget.
