Color is one of the easiest ways to change your space without hurting your bank account. Try painting your walls into a fun, vibrant color that brings life to your basement.

Make sure you truly love the color and the mood it gives you while you are working.  Also, add some artwork with different textures and colors to your walls. The artwork should inspire you and add an element of creativity to your workspace. Personalizing your basement with your favorite colors and textures will keep you motivated and excited to work!

Whether it’s a house plant, succulent or even flowers having an element of nature where you are working changes the quality of your work. Find a low maintenance plant that suits your style from your local nursery or greenhouse. Then, put the plants in various containers to add color (as mentioned above) and variety to your basement. Finally, the most important step that we all tend to forget please try to keep your plant watered and maintained. Plants are vital part of decor that need some maintenance and upkeep but, are worth the time and effort!

It doesn’t have to be expensive just a comfortable set up. An important tip to remember is to make sure the furniture you choose is ergonomically made to prevent future injuries or muscle strains.
