Working from home offers plenty of flexibility and creativity.
Not only can you define when you work but how you work. And just like in the office, organization is key.
“Bringing order to clutter is a simple step that can instantly transform your home,” says Nanette Fraser of Office Designs in Northbrook. “As everything finds its place, a well-organized room makes a statement.”
Forget predictable office furniture and accessories. Here’s your chance to express your personal style, with plenty of work ethic to boot.
