High partitions are effective space dividers, but they block out a lot of natural light and also defeat the purpose of the open floor layout. So, though you have a partition in place, you’ll also have dark, aesthetically depressing areas.  The way out?

Here are some other subtle ways of breaking up the space visually. 

1. Use rugs- A rug holds a space together. It keeps all the furniture grounded as a unit, and keeps them from feeling like free-floating single pieces. So, a rug in the living room defines the space, while one in the dining area defines that space. However, we’d recommend having one rug in either space and not a rug in each. Two rugs could get overwhelming and a rug in the dining room has its own cleaning struggles. A rug in the living room is enough to visually mark it as a unit that is separate from the dining.
2. Different ceiling heights- If you had to create a partition with different flooring for the living and dining area, it would be a design disaster. If you use different

To begin with, the open floor layout gives you a huge space to decorate. That's cool and yet it can be extremely challenging to deal with. 

 Here's what we recommend you do to make the task easier:

1. Identify the functions of the space- If you are dealing with a large open space, you will need to break it up into parts according to what it is going to be used for. Usually, such spaces are divided into the living room and the dining areas. Obviously, the dining area will be closer to the kitchen. However, when it comes to the living room,  you will need to figure out if you want a TV in there or prefer to have it in the bedroom. However you plan things, try not to overstuff your space. There needs to be enough room for pathways, meaning people should be able to walk around the room comfortably, without banging into things.
2. Align the furniture according to the functionality of the space- Next, if the living room is going to be your main TV watching area, you will need to identify the spot

None of us really thought much of the home office until 2020 made us all give it a serious thought. To many, the home office is the dining table, the couch, or even the bed, but given the number of work hours, none of these spots is recommended. You need a setup that works for your health, while you are at work. 

Here are a few changes or upgrades that can help make work more pleasant and life easier. 

1.  Ergonomic chair- Get off the couch and get yourself an ergonomic chair. Obviously you will need to pair it with a table and that will straighten things out for you on the health front. An ergonomic chair helps retain the normal alignment of the body, and so reduces stress build up in the shoulders and back. If you can avoid pain and improve your average workday, why not?
2. Ergonomic keyboard- With most of us extensively using computers and  laptops, there is a fair deal of typing involved. Continuous pressure build up on the median nerve in the wrist leads to the Carpal tunnel syndrome.
