Turn a kitchen trolley into a mobile work storage option that you can easily wheel around at your convenience.
Make full use of the wall and customise it to your needs by using things like a pegboard.
A workstation can also be established in unexpected places, such as this closet space.
Ensure there is adequate lighting at your workstation that helps you focus without straining your eyes.
Organise and label files and boxes so that everything is neatly arranged and easy to find at your workspace.
Personalise your workspace with some potted plants and a notice board where you can put up inspiring messages or reminders.
Add curtains to secure some privacy while you work.
