Window panels

Colors to paint the room
Paint the whole room in a mono chromatic scheme. Combination of pale green and white works wonders to your office décor. Avoid painting the rooms with flirty shades like red or orange.

This comes handy especially when your office staffs are going to be served hot cups of ginger ale tea during the evenings. These effective tips make room for exciting and innovative home office makeovers pretty much within the budget.
