Remember art doesn’t always need to be hung on the center of the wall it can rest on top of desks or layered next to sculptures or on bookshelves and joinery.’ 13. This may be next to a window or vista through the house. ‘This way you will feel the natural spots for art to be. ‘When adding art to an office, think about the kind of medium, scale and style of art you’d like whilst walking around the space – never decide off-plan,’ recommends Camilla Clarke, creative director at Albion Nord (opens in new tab).

'Lighting is an effective way to zone your living space, defining areas for different activities and making every corner count. A perfectly positioned wall light, overreach floor light or clip light can provide an immediate solution to illuminate targeted areas for the performance of specific tasks or activities. If you are creating a workspace in a living room it's particularly important to consider additional task lighting for that area, too. 'Simple and refined, our lights sit comfortably on all manner of desks, from impromptu working-from-home corners to traditional studies.' 'If you’re working from home, a good desk light can lift the spirits and increase productivity,' says Peter Bowles, founder of Original BTC (opens in new tab).
