How to Organize Your Home Office

March 24, 2021

Home office spaces are one of the most requested features of new homes in Rowlett TX. With more people working and learning from home, the home office is more important than ever before. Here are a few ways to make yours more organized:

1. Choose the right space. Your home may already have a designated study or office space. If not, choose a room away from the busy areas of the house. This could be a spare bedroom or even a corner of the game room.
2. Provide storage space. Freestanding bookshelves and furniture will give you the most flexible options. For a more permanent solution, install wall-mounted shelves and cabinets. Other storage options include file cabinets, a desk with lots of drawers, and a separate credenza.
3. Keep like items together. Have printer paper within easy reach of the printer. In turn, have the printer within easy reach of the computer.
4. Keep frequently-used items close at hand either on or in your desk. Items that you use less often can be stored in another part of the room.
5. Create an organizing hub. Mount a whiteboard and calendar on the wall where you can see them from your desk.

Our spacious floor plans include flexible areas that are ideal for home office spaces.
