Whether you are outfitting your home office, starting a small business or attempting to spruce up your digs in the workplace, the furniture you choose to surround yourself with as you work can make all the difference when it comes to creativity, productivity and, sometimes, sanity. Here are some suggestions for creating an efficient yet serenity-inspiring workspace with office furniture.

Ergo Value Mesh Medium Back Task Chair

One of the most important pieces of furniture in any office is, of course, the ubiquitous office chair. To keep you from the everyday aches and pains, not to mention fatigue, associated with poor posture and unsupportive furniture, look for a chair that offers plenty of lumbar support and can adjust to fit your particular frame.

For a great example of just such a chair, this Ergo Value Mesh Back Task Chair fits the bill perfectly. Featuring both width and height adjustable arms as well as ratchet back height adjustment capability, this task chair can be set up to match your needs exactly. The chair’s Airmate elastomeric mesh back keeps your backside well ventilated and temperature controlled while providing excellent support for your lumbar region, eliminating common backaches. The full swivel, tilt and tension control adds another layer of personalization and the contoured foam seat gives you a comfortable home for hours of hard work.

Although you may not actually be the boss, you’ll feel like one with the superior support and comfort of this Boss Mesh Back Task Chair. Offering a well-padded breathable mesh seat and back, this office chair is fully adjustable to perfectly support any body type. The polyurethane padded arms adjust up and down for the perfect as does the seat height using pneumatic gas.

You’ll also enjoy ample lumbar support and the tilt tension control so you can stay posture-perfect and ache free all day long. This solid metal frame sits atop five double wheel hooded casters and supports a 25 inch nylon base to keep you as comfortable as possible.

Caresoft Reception Box Arm Chair

Of course, you aren’t likely to be the only one requiring a seat in the office. A solid, comfortable chair for conferences, waiting rooms and quick meetings is an essential ingredient to making a good impression on clients and associates.

This classic Reception Box arm chair by Caresoft fits the bill perfectly without breaking the bank. Featuring ample padding covered with ultra soft black vinyl that is durable yet easy to clean, this excellent waiting chair features a retro-chic design with wooden Mahogany legs for a classy touch. Its mid-back style and molded soft arm rests will make sure clients are comfortable without putting them to sleep.

Victor Writing Desk

Another obvious mainstay of any office furniture set is the desk. Providing a focal point for the office, your home base away from home, a good desk can be as much a reflection of your own personal style as a practical depot for office supplies and files. Of course, the job you do will have an effect on the type of desk you’ll need. If plenty of storage is needed, a desk loaded with drawers and shelves might be useful but can also end up providing distractions and clutter.

For a more minimal approach to office organization, this fantastically sleek writing desk offers the best of both worlds, with a modest allowance of storage by way of two small drawers on the upper left hand side and a pull out keyboard drawer to keep your desk top clean and clear of clutter. Made of solid rubber wood and featuring a handsome walnut stained finish, this desk’s slim veneer makes a perfect minimalist statement for the modern workplace.

The storage-friendly alternative that still maintains a chic, stylish look is this executive style computer desk. Constructed throughout of powder-coated steel, this desk is built to last and looks great while offering two large drawers and an under side shelf for storage on the left and room for a PC tower and even more shelf storage on the right. For the desk top, you’ll appreciate the pull-out keyboard tray as well as an elevated platform that can accommodate a printer, fax, phone or scanner or keep your monitor clear of the main desk top.

Bush Series C 3-Drawer File Cabinet

Whether you choose to use your desk for storage or not, nearly every office needs a good file cabinet. This Bush Series model proves that they can be just as attractive as any other piece of furniture, with its modern silver handles and sleek mahogany finish.

The furnishings you choose for your office speak about your own business and personal style and create an atmosphere for your workplace. Choose your office furniture wisely and reap the benefits of a more peaceful and productive workplace.
