With many of us having to work from home again, it may of become increasingly apparent that we need a designated space to work from. Working occasionally on your lap whilst on the sofa is ok, but if you are having to do video calls, sit for long periods or time etc then you should ideally be sat at a table or a desk. Sitting on the sofa for periods of time is not good for your posture and if you are trying to have video calls with your boss or clients, it doesn’t look as professional.

Ideally you want to use a spare room and convert it in to an office but this is not always an option for many people. If you are short on space, then finding a corner of a room in which you can set up a desk is fine. Try and position it away from the TV and any other distractions you may have in the room. Make sure you invest in a good quality chair if you are going to be sat down working most of the day and try to give yourself 10 minutes break every couple of hours to stretch your legs.
