What we need

[{"selector":"#anim-c61c14fa-fa95-405e-90ba-76ba7cf2100d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d4e1d448-e073-4721-a297-90a756a38fc6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 452.99146%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-15e74cf4-58a0-4221-82e7-b3afca9c54cf [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Look for a vintage, statement sofa for your seating area. Scour Ebay, or go to garage sales in your town!

[{"selector":"#anim-08933973-f05a-4cbf-859a-ab9f9daac669","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":2500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-11ff848d-48bb-4abe-8512-af13df265f62","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(140.00002%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":2500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Also consider unusual or minimalistic stools. Overstock sites are a great place to find affordable versions.

[{"selector":"#anim-a15c8fb2-266f-4ad1-af0b-abd5ddb77253 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Vintage chairs are also a great choice. They usually become a focal piece of the office, not just a comfy place to sit.

[{"selector":"#anim-203acade-f398-4ab1-b06c-8732a28b3458","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":2500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e30ebe8c-882c-4a9a-8442-632c22c9064f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-100.9804%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":2500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0d1d4568-1f2d-4ec2-abeb-e17f92ed1a5b [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(-0.45565740143829103%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

You can even incorporate comfortable seating. Who says a workspace has to be all work and no play?

Incorporate materials that are complementary. That can be woods, metals, or colors that are neutral.

You can create your own desk with two sawhorse legs and simple plank of wood, or purchase a minimal wooden desk.
