Getting the right office furniture is very important in these days of working from home or sharing offices. It’s no good going to the cheap furniture outlets and just buying the cheapest set there is. The items, particularly seating, have to be hard wearing and comfortable – these two factors alone will rule out the […]
I experienced the most perfect example of offices and work spaces in a shed recently. I have some pals who seem remarkably talented in the crafting and hobbying side of life. There’s nothing they like more than rummaging about in a box of scrap fabric and yarn to make up little cat nip mice or […]
One of the beauties of working from home is being able to stroll out to the garden more or less at leisure. There’s definitely something rewarding in the getting up and off the chair, if nothing else. However there is so much more to be had from a mid morning leg stretch. The garden is […]

This is not the best time of year for going round a garden. It’s been horribly damp lately and of course, being autumnal, there is a later start to the working day and an even earlier end to it. However, there are many aspects of working around gardens and being able to have an office […]
I guess you could say that I have an garden theme in my office, if not exactly an office in my garden. My kitchen is large L-shaped with a peninsular unit, beyond which is a seating area leading to a wide patio door out to the lawn. The show house had used it as […]
