What to use for your Home Office
Furniture for the Home Office is presented to you by:

When you work from home, one of the hardest things to get right is defining where to do your work. In your bedroom? In a special home office? You will need office furniture to match. A Dedicated Space is best. A home office is really what you want . Best to be a dedicated room of a reasonable size. Convert a small bedroom, as most bedrooms are actually surprisingly large once you take away the bed.Your essentials for a home office are a desk, chair, computer, filing cabinet and phone/fax. If you don't have spare ones of these lying around then you should buy them used, or from some kind of discount store -- don't spend a cent more than you need to on your office furniture and equipment, at least to begin with. Still, though, do try to find things that don't look too bad, and that match.
Furniture and Equipment for teh Home Office!
Don't forget the basic decoration essentials! Use some gadgets!
Do make sure that you have everything in the room that you'll need for your business, and that your equipment is good enough that you'll be able to use it for long periods of time without it becoming painful. If you plan to do a lot of phoning, for example, buy a headset so that you can do it hands-free. It's also worth spending just a little extra on that chair, if you're going to be sitting on it a lot.
You should also make sure that the room is well-lit and decorated in a style you like: one that says 'serious', but not 'dull, terrible work'. Keep it at a comfortable temperature, with good ventilation. Many people like to make their home office visibly different to the rest of their house, by having a differently-colored carpet or wooden floor, or painting the walls an entirely different color. Whatever you do, though, I have no doubt that it'll be better than 99% of the corporate offices out there. The most important thing is that you don't spend too much, but that you make sure to solve any problems you have with your space as soon as they come up.
Set up Home Office with tax-deductibles in mind
Your Home Office is an important investment, but don't go overboard!
When you're organizing your home office, don't forget about tax. The area of your house that you do business in should be tax-deductible, and so should any equipment you buy or other work you have done. Don't use it as an excuse to get carried away, but do remember that you're not spending quite as much as you think. As long as you don't go overboard, your home office will be one of the most important investments you will make - as anyone who's ever tried to work from home without one can tell you.
