14 Best Home Office Lighting Ideas For Ceilings, walls, desks, and floor

These home office lighting ideas will give you the ideal light for working.

If you have ever worked at night under poor lighting, we don't need to tell you how important good lighting is.

Working from home or a hybrid schedule is the norm for white collar jobs in 2022. This can be a dream come true for many - you pick your late starts and the early finishes. But this comes with its own challenges.

We learned how to mentally leave our "home mode" and enter the "work mode" over the last couple of years. But how can we become inspired to get work done in such a warm and cozy place?

It all comes down to the setup of a new environment, design for one intention only. 

To help you get your workspace setup, we have put a list with some fantastic home office lighting ideas to get the work done.

If done right, light can be such a productive key in our days. Your desk mustn't be hidden in a dark corner - you won't be able to get any work done with low-quality lighting. Instead, use natural light and artificial.

Place your desk by the window

Studies have shown that exposure to natural light during the day has many positive effects on our mental health.

Working in low-quality lighting environments where screens are the only light source can cause eye strain, which leads to headaches and blurred vision.

So, placing your desk by the window will not only save on your electricity bill, but it will boost your mood!
