A little Home Office Q & A

Q- Are you a piler or are you a filer?

A –

How a typical “piler” likes to organize
How a typical “filer” likes to organize.

It is interesting that many people don’t feel comfortable answering this simple question.  Typically this is because they are a “piler”.  “Pilers” don’t like to admit that this is the way that they work best.  Why is this?  We think it is because this is generally not considered an organized way of working. but who are we to judge?  Nope, we don’t care.  “Pile” or “File”, either way let’s just work with your natural tendencies and focus on making your space organized and work for you.  By working with your natural tendencies we will create an organized space customized for you that allows you to work more efficiently, effectively and comfortably.

A- Depending on how often you will work from home will help determine the value you will place on the furniture, fixtures and technology that you will purchase or install.
