5 easy tips to create an inspiring workspace
May 3Does your workspace need a little…work? Whether your desk is in the corner of your bedroom or you’re back in the office, we’ve come up with just 5 easy tips to create an inspiring workspace that’ll turn any dull desk into a warm, welcoming workspace that sparks the imagination. From stylish storage solutions to adding a touch of greenery, these simple steps will help you be your most productive self, no matter where your work is!
1. Be creative with space
Perhaps you’ve got a desk set-up on your kitchen bar or maybe you’re back in the office after a year of WFH? No matter whereabouts your workspace may be, it should always be a comfortable and creative space that fuels the imagination! Having a spot that’s dedicated to working will separate out work and play, helping you close the door on your workday, so to speak. A tip from us: make sure you invest in a decent chair – sitting on something supportive and comfortable 9-5 will look after your body as well as help with those brilliant ideas!
2. Get rid of clutter with stylish storage
We know what you’re thinking, ‘how can storage be stylish?!’ But hear us out! Colourful storage, like Martha’s blush Mustard locker, or shelves are a fantastic way to create an inspiring workspace by keep all of your chunky office items out of sight and out of mind whilst adding some character to your workspace. Saying that, not everything needs to be packed away. For the items you need close to hand, like your notebooks, planner or pens and pencils, use desk accessories, such as our gold wire letter rack that’ll make your desk look so darn good you’ll want to show it off to the world.
3. Bring the outside in
We think no desk is complete without a plant or some flowers! No matter how little or large your workspace is, they brighten up any room AND have plenty of health benefits. Did you know house plants can reduce stress, increase creativity, purify the air AND more?! Impressive! Make sure you choose a plant pot that matches the rest of your workspace so it feels right at home on your desk and suits your style.

Display them with pride and make your workspace a place that fills you with joy every day of the week.
