Seeing aright
November 14th 2007 20:01
If that sounds like an ad – it isn’t! I know from experience that I’ve often put up with the wrong kind of lighting at home just because I couldn’t be bothered to do something about it. It was easier to let that aspect of my ‘home office’ go and concentrate on the work. Of course, if I’d done something about the lighting I would have got on better with the work anyway.
Not every home is geared up to having people work in it, and sometimes the office isn’t in the right part of the house for good natural lighting. At one point we shifted our piano away from an outside wall where I see the music easily, to an inside one, but all it did was cause problems with seeing the music, as now I was sitting in my own light. We tried various lamps and placings, and put up with it for months, but in the end, the original position was better for me – even if not for the piano.
Sometimes you have to experiment: change the position of your desk. Try an extra lamp in the room.
In the end providing good lighting for your office area is an essential, and shouldn’t be skimped.
