Hi I am Kim Oser, a certified professional organizer and owner of Put It Away! Professional Organizing. Today we are discussing organizing your home office. We are now going to discuss the room layout. Twenty years ago, when folks moved into their home, they didn't have the home office, they stuck a filing cabinet in the basement and then they never access that again. Twenty years later, they have papers piled up all over their home, they have a home office but that filing cabinet still located down in the basement.
The ideal home office layout should be a central located room in the house. It should include bright light, hang up the art work that you like or frame your children's art from school, as well as you can include a TV or a radio, if that will help keep you company while not being distracting. It should be a comfortable place to go and that one stop shopping for all your home office business.
So let's think about the hardware in your home office. It can be as simple as a folding table and chairs with the file box or file tray, that you could easily stash away, if you had company coming over to something permanent, like a permanent desk with a build-in file drawer and supply drawer. So now that we have got the hardware in the location picked out, let's get started on creating an effective in-box system.
