Tips to remodel your home

Since we're all spending the pandemic time at home, we're all thinking of ways on how to refurbish our homes. Aside from having a vision of a beautiful space, we also want it to be functional to do important things like working from home, studying, crafts and more. Our Home has stylish selections for us to do our tasks with decorative, functional and comfortable desks. They also offer some tips when choosing the right desk according to your needs.

• Choose a desk that’s right for your needs and that suits your space and style.
  Consider your workflow and activities to make sure that you can use your desk comfortably and productively.
  
  Also, consider your overall house design in choosing your desk. If your place is more traditional, the classic Hambu Writing Desk would be a perfect fit; while the white Havana Computer Desk will compliment contemporary spaces.

• Size (and Shape) Does Matter. Making the mistake of buying a desk that’s either too big for your space or too small for the way you work will not be good for your productivity and comfort.
  
  You’ll also discover that apart from size, your desk shape does matter in helping you getting organized. Rectangular desks, like Our Home’s Gavin’s Office Desk, are the most popular choice, and these are available in a variety of width and depth sizes. Corner desks for awkward spaces, and wave desks that provide you with the benefits of a rectangular desk while also giving you a larger desktop, are also great alternatives.

• Consider Storage. Without any storage, your home desk can become cluttered and disorganized. Opting for a chest with drawers is an ideal way to keep your workspace organized and to make sure that all your essentials are at your fingertips. Better still, opt for a desk and storage combination.
  
  
• Sitting Well. Sitting comfortably at your desk is necessary for making sure that you can be as productive as possible as you work. It will also ensure your back is continuously supported. Our Home has ergonomic chairs for a healthy WHF, as well as desk lamps to make sure your area is properly lighted.

Visit Our Home stores nationwide at select SM Supermalls for more Desk and Home Office ideas. Customers who prefer to shop online can expect the same great shopping experience through www.ourhome.ph. In addition, Our Home has introduced Contactless Shopping Options for customers who prefer to stay in their homes. Customers can Call & Deliver – call 0917 8315260, pay online, and have their items delivered. They can Shop Live where a personal shopper takes them on a virtual tour of the store via video call. Curbside Pickup is also available.
