I know that since many of us are working from home a lot more this is a topic that I think will be helpful. In my opinion, keeping an organized and minimal space will help you feel better and produce better work.

    I think it’s crucial to have a clean work space because, more often than not, starting with a clean slate can really clear your mind. I personally find that when I have a minimal setup, I generally feel more productive!

    A tip I would around home office improvements is to create an overall plan for the layout and the larger pieces such as desks, storage, chairs/sofa. Then you can budget and work on the improvements overtime.
