Working from home requires organisation, discipline and the right surroundings. Wall systems will help you get organised, but don't let all this organisation keep you from adding your own personal touch of style to the home office.
Style tip:
Don't let your workload take over your home. Get organised with wall systems, room dividers, filing cabinets, boxes and baskets.
Get organised
This Lecco wall system has two kinds of shelves: Closed shelves for storing your books, folders, boxes and files of all types and open shelves for displaying single pieces of accessories to brighten up the room.
Don't be afraid to combine your home office and your living room. Letting your office items like books and boxes be a part of the room decoration can also be a great solution. It adds a more creative and playful feel to the room.

The perfect mattress
The visco-elastic foam in a Fahrenheit mattress consists of open, self-ventilating cells that respond to body temperature and weight, adapting to your body. It moulds to your body shape giving you ultimate support, so you can say goodnight to neck and back pains.
The unique foam helps to eliminate uncomfortable pressure points, so you don't have to turn over so often while you're sleeping. The result is a more effective sleep, which means you don't need the same amount of sleep compared to a standard mattress.
When sleeping a variety of essential processes take place within your body, carrying out intensive repair and rebuilding work. Especially if you have a busy and demanding everyday life, a good night's sleep is very important for recovery.
Actually a lot of important hormones reach their peak levels, when we are sleeping. For example, the number of growth hormones in the body increases. This is why sleep is extremely important for children and young people in order for them to grow and develop. Also your immune defence improves during sleep.
Another advantage of sleeping well is that the number of stress hormones in the body falls while you sleep. As a positive side effect, the risk of cardiovascular disease and other stress-related illnesses falls.

Lighting
Want to let the light into your home? First off, you should decide which kind of lighting is needed in the room. Do you need general lighting, functional lighting, maybe a little mood lighting, or a little of everything? Then make your choice between the many lighting options available to you.
Style tip:
Use mood lighting to emphasise particular elements in the room. Focus on the things that add cosiness, atmosphere and character.
General lighting
General lightning must make sure that the entire room is lit. You can use spots, fluorescent light or pendants but always be aware of which kind of bulb you buy for your lamps. There is a great difference between cold light and warm light - you should check this out before you buy.
Functional lighting
A room can have many functions, all of which need lighting: Dining, reading, working, etc. A dimmer is a great way to adjust lighting in many rooms, from strong light in working situations to dimmed light when you're having a cozy dinner with friends and family.
For a more personal and playful look, hang many pendants together in different heights over your dining table, or use the directional light of wall lamps instead of the classic table lamps.
Mood lighting
Mood lighting should add to the atmosphere of the room and there are various ways to do this. You could place a lamp on or next to your sideboard, mount wall lamps over your pictures or paintings, or use indirect lighting such as LED underneath shelves.

Style tip:
The bedroom should be a place for rest and relaxation where a good night's sleep prepares you for the following day. Disorder is off-limits in the bedroom.
To clear your mind, you have to clear your room
Functionality has moved into the bedroom so make sure you have cupboards, night stands, dressers and other elements to help you organise your wardrobe, shoes, books and other personal items.

Personalise your bedroom
Use boxes and baskets with lids for jewellery and other personal items to create your own individual relaxation zone.
A comforting atmosphere

Harmony or contrast? A chair that matches in colour and style with the dining table will create a calm, elegant backdrop for your dinner party. Or try a chair in a contrasting colour or material for a dynamic, characteristic effect.
Choose comfortable chairs with the right seating height in proportion to the height of the dining table.
A matching sideboard
Use a sideboard that matches the dining table and make it functional by hiding away the dinner sets, bowls, napkins, candles, cutlery etc.

Living Room - Concept and Tips
Many people try to copy what's trendy rather than trusting their own personal style in decorating a home and then realising the look doesn't last. Use your instinct when selecting home interior and don't let the latest trends influence your choice.
Style tip:
Furniture should complement lifestyle, taste and need without having to compromise. So make the most of the options in design, size, colour, materials and functionality. It's as simple as that.
Space is good
Does your living room look like the furniture has been dropped there by coincidence? Don't place rugs in the living area that are too small; it will make your furniture look like it's scattered around the room.
Make some space around your furniture. If you have a large living room it could be a good idea to place your sofa in the middle of the room. This will add a new and different look to the room and you will avoid the feeling that the sofa is pressed into a corner or up against the wall.
A clear idea
Don't use more than two different veneers on your furniture in the same room. This way the governing idea of the room will be much clearer.
Do not place your sofa in front of a heater as the heat can ruin the structure of the fabric.
Turn down the volume and add some character to your room with a rug. Exciting patterns, natural materials, striking colours and beautiful textures will soften your floor.
Create contrasts
Pile on the cushions in same colours of the spectrum and play with the endless varieties of gorgeous materials and beautiful patterns. Cushions can be very characteristic on their own, but together they complement one another.
Create contrasts by mixing old stuff with new, for example cool clean pieces with rustic pieces etc.
Expressive storage
Use different kinds of bookshelves and arrange the books in colour range to create a more harmonious look.
Or create the opposite dynamic look by mixing the books with personal things, plants etc.
