DG AT HOME | Create the perfect home office environment

“Remote working is a new normality for many of us – we were daunted by it too, at first.

Not all of us have the luxury of escaping into another room or having the space to fit both our work and personal lives in a way that feels stylish, practical and habitable all at once. Trust us though, creating your own interpretation of what it means to live and work simultaneously, isn’t as hard as it first appears…

1. If you’ve already got home office furniture, great! But if not, our Homestores have a wonderful collection of vintage and contemporary pieces from designers such as MDF Italia and HAY and the same goes for desk lamps, choose from brands like Anglepoise and Louis Poulsen. Whilst our stores are closed - view our tailored in-store services here.

2. Curate your calm – whether you’re at your most productive surrounded by fresh flowers and your favourite ephemera or if you prefer a more minimal layout – do what feels most natural to you. But make it comfortable with a cushion or throw for your chair.

3. Brighten your day with our free downloadable phone wallpapers. We’ve reworked our most inimitable and cheerful prints and patterns so that they are perfectly scaled for your phone’s background wallpaper. Download your designs here.

4. Most importantly take time to step away to have your coffee break - it's these small rituals that can enhance our daily routine.

We would love to see your home-working set up – share your images with us #dgworkingfromhome

Wishing you well working from home”
