A shared home office may seem difficult to manage if you’ve become accustomed to your own space. You may wonder if you’ll be as productive in a shared office or if you’ll have enough individual space. However, a shared office is a great way to maximize the space in your home and create a dedicated work area.

When designing your shared office consider the following:

• Natural lighting. Nothing brightens a room like natural light. You can increase the office’s natural light by adding windows or skylights, or strategically rearranging furniture so your work space receives as much light as possible.
• Individual space. Even though you are sharing an office, it is important to have your own personal work areas. Consider screens, built-in dividers or draperies that help define the separate spaces.
• Built-ins. Having a great desk isn’t enough. Many homeowners find installing built-in shelving and cabinets anchors the room and maximizes the available space for both design and efficiency.
