An inspiring workspace: clarify your needs
Instead of scrolling through listings to find a home or workspace that will inspire your life, try creating your own. The act of thinking through what you want is very clarifying.
Things to consider:
- How far away from work do you want to be, and how would you get there (bike, subway, car)?
- How far from your friends and/or family do you want to be?
- What size space would you like and what do you really need?
- How important is natural light for you?
- What room in your home do you tend to spend the most time in?
- Do you tend to spend most of your waking hours outside of the home, and how would that affect your priorities?
- How much can you afford to spend each month on your space?
- Do you prefer to live alone or with roommates?
