Working from Home? Create the Perfect Home Office Setup in Your Apartment

With remote work becoming more common than ever, having a well-designed home office space is essential. At Cambridge Park Apartments in Winston-Salem, our spacious, renovated 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments offer plenty of room to create a comfortable and productive workspace — without sacrificing style. Whether you’re working full-time from home or just need a space for side projects and creativity, here’s how to set up the perfect home office right in your apartment.

1. Choose the Right Spot

The key to a productive home office is finding the right location. Ideally, you’ll want a space that’s quiet, well-lit, and separate from high-traffic areas. If you have a spare bedroom, it can easily double as an office. In a smaller apartment, a corner of the living room or even a nook in your bedroom can work — just be sure to set clear boundaries so your work and home life don’t blend too much.

2. Invest in a Comfortable Chair and Desk

Comfort and ergonomics are everything when it comes to your home office. A sturdy desk and an adjustable, supportive chair will help prevent aches and pains after long hours of work. Consider the height of your screen and chair so that you maintain good posture, and make sure there’s enough surface area for your computer, notebooks, and any other essentials.

3. Prioritize Good Lighting

Natural light is a game-changer when it comes to productivity and mood. Set up your workspace near a window if possible — Cambridge Park’s bright, open floor plans make it easy to find a sunlit spot. If that’s not an option, invest in a stylish desk lamp that provides soft, warm light without causing glare on your screen.

4. Add Storage Solutions

A clutter-free space makes for a clearer mind. Maximize your apartment’s space by using shelves, filing cabinets, or decorative baskets to keep your office organized. Multi-functional furniture, like a desk with built-in storage or floating shelves, helps keep everything within reach without crowding your space.

5. Personalize Your Space

One of the perks of working from home is being able to create a space that reflects your style and inspires you. Add some personality with framed art, houseplants, or a cozy rug. A few personal touches make your home office feel inviting and boost creativity.

6. Take Advantage of Community Perks

When you need a change of scenery, Cambridge Park offers beautiful, well-maintained outdoor spaces that are perfect for a quick break. Take a walk around the community to refresh your mind, or bring your laptop poolside for a more relaxed workday vibe.
