Work at Home the Ikea way
In recent years, the rise of remote and hybrid working has made the home office an essential feature in many households. Whether you work from home full-time or simply need a quiet corner for occasional admin, a well-thought-out workspace can significantly improve your productivity and well-being. With IKEA’s stylish, practical, and affordable furniture, setting up your ideal office has never been easier. At Maltashopper, we bring IKEA directly to Malta, making your perfect home office setup completely hassle-free.
1. Choose Your Space Wisely
Before investing in furniture, decide where your home office will be. Will it take up a spare room, a cosy nook in the living room, or even a converted cupboard? IKEA offers clever solutions for small and multi-purpose spaces, so whatever your layout, you can create a comfortable and efficient work zone.
2. Pick the Right Desk
Your desk is the focal point of your home office. IKEA offers a wide selection, from compact models to modular systems designed for larger spaces or more flexible needs.
MICKE: Compact and clever, making it ideal for small spaces. It’s perfect for bedrooms or tight corners, with built-in cable management to keep your setup neat and organised.
LAGKAPTEN with ALEX drawers: Customisable and stylish, with added storage. Modern surface with plenty of space underneath, ideal for creatives or anyone juggling multiple tasks.
BEKANT: Height-adjustable for better ergonomics and posture. These desks help reduce strain and support healthy working habits throughout the day.
3. Choose a Comfortable, Ergonomic Chair
Your chair matters more than you think. Long hours of sitting demand proper support. IKEA’s MARKUS and FLINTAN chairs are customer favourites, offering both comfort and style.
