But then there are the drawbacks: interruptions, distractions, lack of interaction with colleagues, and maybe even a less-than-ideal work space. When you're working from home, you need to do everything you can to enhance your focus, productivity, and, possibly, your patience. Paint can help.
The color of the walls in your work space is about more than just aesthetics. In fact, the color you pick can affect your mood and motivation in ways that help you do more and better work. Whether you need to increase focus or decrease anxiety, there's a color for you. Read on for the best paint colors for your home office.
