Teleworking has become a new labor phenomenon in recent years. The vast majority of workers currently work in a hybrid mode, i.e. face-to-face and online. For this reason, from ParaTuReforma we have prepared this content for you to know in detail how to create a telework space at home that is adequate and of quality.
Tips for creating a telework space at home
Having an optimal space for teleworking at home is essential to work in adequate and quality conditions. In addition, it is vital in certain aspects related to emotional and physical health. Read on!
The first thing to do is to decide where you are going to work. Therefore, this space should be characterized by low noise and as few distractions as possible. It should also be comfortable and functional.
Ideal table for teleworking
The table or desk is one of the most important elements, since it is the stage on which you are going to develop your work. Therefore, it must be clean and tidy. Keep in mind that lighting plays a decisive role in your teleworking space, since this way you will not strain your eyes so much. If the space in your home does not have windows, we recommend that you make a small reform, especially if teleworking is something permanent in your work activity.
As for the table, it should ideally be large so that you can organize everything you need (computer, screen, notebooks, etc.) easily. Take into account the measurements of the space where you are going to place it.
The chair should also be part of the table, that is, once you finish working, it can be under the table. Another option is to build your own table with the materials we have on our website, since we have products in all kinds of materials and in the sizes you need.
Acoustic Insulation
Concentration in the workplace is essential for the work activity to run smoothly. The room must therefore have a high degree of high degree of sound insulation. We propose the following solutions that do not involve complex construction or renovation work:
- Cork sheets: It is one of the best acoustic insulators on the market; it is also impermeable and very resistant to chemical agents and liquids. On the other hand, it is a very environmentally friendly material.
- Rock wool: It also has a high capacity to absorb all kinds of noises. Once installed, you will notice that footsteps inside your house or conversations will not be heard at all.
- Mineral wool: It is one of the most widely used materials to acoustically insulate any room. In fact, many companies use it for roofs and facades.

Coatings
The coatings are equally important to create a telecommuting space at home. In this regard, we propose the following colors as wall coverings for your office:
- White is always a safe bet. The reason is that it favors concentration, while providing a sense of brightness. At the same time, you can combine white with another color to make the latter stand out.
- If you are looking for a modern space, gray is an excellent bet, it also conveys modernity.
- If you prefer a warm design, go for colors of the same type, such as yellow or magenta. These colors convey what you want for your workday: happiness, strength and movement.
You can also select cool colors such as blue, green or violet. They are ideal if you are looking for a room that denotes tranquility and sensibility.
Decorative elements
Keep in mind that this is a room where you will be spending many hours of the day. Therefore, we suggest that you decorate the room according to your interests. It is not just a matter of installing a table and a chair.
For example, in ParaTuReforma we have sundials that fulfill a very important decorative function. In addition, placing one or two plants can also be useful, since they transmit vitality.
Ventilation in the room
Ventilation is a priority in any space. However, when it comes to the space in which you work, it is even more so, since it contributes to higher concentration. It is important to open the window a couple of times in the morning and evening in order to gain comfort and health. You can also opt for automatic ventilation systems.
Storage
Storage solutions are crucial if your work involves document management and handling tasks. For this purpose, we propose the following solutions that will surely be of interest to you:
- Floating shelves: They are one of the best alternatives if you have little space. They are wooden slats that are manufactured with the measurements you need and are placed on the wall. Keep in mind that 2 or 3 slats are enough, since it is not about cluttering the wall.
- Traditional shelving: If you have more than enough space, opt for traditional shelving. In the market you have a wide range to choose from depending on the design, sizes or finishes.
