What are your office must-haves? “A good office needs good joinery, well-considered pieces to put things away to maintain order and a clutter-free working space and mind are also a must. I love drawers over cupboards for the extra storage capacity and access they create.”
Your wishlist? “A hammock has been on my wishlist for ages, somewhere to hang out (literally!) as a welcome little escape from the work table. A place to daydream or do some meditating to get through the day and foster creative thought.”
Any tips for running a greener office? “I made the transition to a paperless office a couple of years back, retiring the copier and scanner and making everything digital. It removed a lot of ‘stuff’ and means I can work from anywhere, including the park or the beach.”
