This came in as I am sitting in my flex room. It will have a Murphy bed, office desk for 2, and cabinetry for my sewing space.

@KatieCunningham 2 года назад

This came JUST as I'm hoeing out our den/office/storage area! Makes me even more excited to actually finish it so I can make this area functional.

@KivaBrent 2 года назад

Oooohhh! Katie, keep me updated. What style are you going for in that space?

@nikmariealex 2 года назад

I'm hollering at "hoeing out" 😂

@natvtxn1213 2 года назад

I haven't thought of that to pay for decorating it! 😆

@shondab3177 2 года назад

You look absolutely beautiful in that purple! The lighting looks really good today too. Have a fantastic day!

@cathyadhdwriter 2 года назад

Alternative tip: placing mirrors strategically can help even out lighting for video calls. For example: if you have your desk light on one side of your desk (and so one side of your face is more lit than the other) you can place a mirror across from that (not in the frame of the video call but on the side - they still shouldn't see it) so it can reflect that light onto the other side of your face. (This tip coming from a glasses wearer who can't put her light right in front of her face because of the glare 🤓😅)

I only have a futon, desk, and chair in my guest room/home office. No curtains or decor. Walls are taupe. I don’t like being in there so I guess I need to spruce it up lol!

@KivaBrent 2 года назад

This happens to everyone! We don’t want to be in there because it’s boring or cluttered, but the it is boring/cluttered BECAUSE we aren’t in there.

Thank you for this video! My multipurpose room is the one that has been the most challening since it serves many purposes and stores many things. Particularly as an office and art studio. Your point about furniture arrangement is so helpful.

This video is right on time because we're starting to redecorate/complete decor in all of our spaces and these tips are perfect for our bonus room that will also serve as an office space in one part. Great one!

Great tips! I've learned lighting is so important. I have a small, cute house and loooooove multifunctional space and am always playing around.

@kimhaas7586 2 года назад

You have the inspiration photo for my current office! It’s the all white office with the daybed and the black desk. My room turned out almost as good, except for my clunky desk chair. So white and calm and non-distracting.

@elliekitchener3339 2 года назад

LOVE this! Such good points to think about re the mirrors and glass frames. I always go back to the same principle with mirrors: what do you want to reflect/double/depict in that mirror? And a messy desk is not my answer to that question 😂

@Elena-me8ul 2 года назад

Kiva, what about a space that does not fit bed or a sofabed and a desk. Can you recommend an alternative sleeping arrangement, maybe convertible armchair?

@lindycodding 2 года назад

This was perfect timing. About to have a baby and the office just become the spare bedroom and of course the bed doesn't fit and the office is a "throw area". Thank you for the ideas

Kiva, thank you for your wonderful ideas! Can you recommend any solution to hide the wifi lights in my guest room? I live in a 16th Century Chateau in Belgium so I can't move the location of the box they installed but I hate thinking that the lights might keep my guests awake. (Red light on Power Strip, Blue lights on WiFi box). Help?
