"Using my existing colour palette, I found a perfect desk to compliment my space."

What are three words you'd use to describe how you want your office to feel?
Calm, inspiring, effortless

What makes your home office the best place to work? And why is having this space important to you?
My home is my sanctuary, and I believe that your space can really influence your state of mind. Being able to infuse my working life into my home lets me approach it with a healthier and more calm state of mind because it's within the setting where I feel my best.

 

 

"Something you didn't realize you needed until you have it."

What does your office say about you?
My office is minimal and cohesive to the surroundings within my home, which shows a seamless way to connect it naturally with my design. It reflects my appreciation for my space and shows how well function and beauty can balance.

What were your inspirations when designing this space?
I was inspired by my own home when I was planning out my work area. Using my existing colour palette, I found a perfect desk to compliment my space. And I love the look of a 'built-in' area, so I chose to situate my office in an area where the desk size fills the space.

What element of your office is indispensable?
My sit-stand desk has become such a valuable function to my office space. While being locked to screens for a large part of the day, the standing option really encourages me to move more, which feels great for my body and overall health. Something you didn't realize you needed until you have it.

What kind of audio do you listen to in your home office?
I like to put on music while I work. I have a Transparent Speaker, amazing sound and design from Sweden, and usually rotate through my own curated playlists.

Lastly, what's your #1 career tip?
Regardless of the task, approach it with the same strong work ethic. It doesn't matter the scale or outcome of what you are doing. If you carry that work ethic throughout, it will always bring you to where you want to go.

Thank you so much, Lauren, for sharing your office space with us. You can find Lauren on her Instagram.
