If necessary, create a workspace in your loft. This can be as simple as adding a desk to a corner with a lamp and seating. If you work from home, you will need to ensure there are no distractions in your work space. This can be a touch challenge in an open loft, but it is possible. If you live alone, distractions are less of a concern and you can leave your work space open to the rest of the loft, creating a feeling of space.
