With the rise of remote and hybrid work, having a functional and pleasant space at home has become essential. Living in a condo may seem like a challenge when it comes to setting up an office, but with a few well-thought-out tricks, it’s entirely possible to create an environment conducive to concentration and well-being.

Here are our tips for optimizing your workspace and making the most of your daily life in a Voltige condo.

1. Find the perfect location

If you have a spare room, the ideal is to transform it into a closed office for more tranquility. Otherwise, choose a quiet and well-lit corner, in your living room or bedroom for example. The important thing is to stay away from distractions and avoid frequent passages.

2. Opt for ergonomic furniture

A good desk and a comfortable chair are essential to preserve your posture and avoid pain. Choose:

  • An office chair with good lumbar support;
  • A height-adjustable desk if possible;
  • A screen mount to avoid tilting your head too much.

3. Optimize lighting

Natural light is ideal for working without visual fatigue. The good news is that Our condos have been designed to optimize the presence of light fixtures in the units! Place your desk near a window if possible and complement with a soft-light desk lamp for darker days.

 

4. Maximize storage

In a condo, space is sometimes limited. To avoid clutter:

  • Use wall shelves to free up space
  • Opt for multifunctional furniture (desk with built-in drawers)
  • Adopt storage accessories such as bins or cable organizers

5. Create an inspiring atmosphere

A pleasant workspace can really boost your motivation! Add things that inspire you, such as:

  • Green plants for a touch of freshness;
  • Motivating boards or posters;
  • An essential oil diffuser for a relaxing ambience.
