If there's one thing you need to get right when you're working from home, it is the ambience and atmosphere of your workspace.

From efficient organisational items such as cord tidies, to fabulously creative world map wallpaper, we have an accoutrement for you! Read on to learn more and gain some inspiration to create the ideal at-home work area.
