This Interior Designer's Trick for Lighting a Home Office Is Something Everyone Should Do During the Darker Autumn Days

A cool small home office with a green art work above a small black desk with a rope light.

There aren't many things I can say I'm genuinely thankful to COVID for, but the introduction of a hybrid work week is certainly one of them. Five years on from the lockdown (hard to believe, I know), over a quarter of working adults in the UK are still working at least partially remotely, and the numbers don't seem to be dropping anytime soon. Which begs the question, if you haven't already levelled up your home office setup, what are you waiting for?

You may think, like I did, that because you've got a nice, roomy desk, and a chair that effectively tows the line between ergonomic and stylish, you've already done your job. But, as I've recently discovered, you would be very, very wrong. Until you've got your home office lighting down, your space won't be complete.
