Looking to improve your work from home space? Whether you’ve had the luxury of a home office, a spare room or been perched with your laptop at the dining table, it’s likely that it’s time for some tweaks.
Eighteen months on and many of us are still ‘making do’ with a temporary WFH arrangement. Even if you are back in the actual office, it’s probably not full time. So with the Monday-Friday 9-5 consigned to recent history, it’s a good time to elevate the home work zone.
Keeping things organised and clutter-free is a no-brainer, and most of us know the power of a plant or two. So assuming you’ve nailed the basics, there is something you may not have considered - or thought possible; more daylight.
The benefits of natural light are well established - we’re more alert during the day, we sleep better at night and we’re more productive as a consequence. It’s no coincidence that the ‘window office’ was once the pinnacle of a corporate career.
It’s not just about output or ego though, countless studies have shown that us humans are happier in light, bright spaces too. If you’re looking to enhance your working from home situation, increasing the natural light can reap huge rewards in both your wellbeing and your work life.
One way to harness the transformative power of daylight from above is with a VELUX roof window. Who wants to toil away in a dark corner of the dining room or a dreary home office when you can be at your creative best in a bright, airy environment with this simple solution?
We spend most of the day at work, so if your WFH setup is lacking in light, it’s well worth prioritising. It doesn’t matter if you’re not planning a major renovation or even redecorating.
According to VELUX, 48 hours is all it takes to install a roof window and transform a space with minimal disruption. Yes, you read that right. Two days is all it takes to turn a dull desk area into an inspiring and uplifting work zone, where you can feel energised, motivated and accomplished.

Another bonus is that with more daylight, there’s less need for artificial electric lighting during the day. This means there are energy saving benefits - for the planet and for your pocket too.
