COMMON DESIGN MISTAKES | Home Office Design Mistakes (PLUS How to Fix Them!)
I started working from home over 11 years ago when I began my design business. While I made my share of mistakes with my work from home setup along the way, I began to become very adept at carving out a dedicated studio space; one where I can maximize productivity and efficiency while staying at home. For myself and my team, I’ve learned how to creatively solve my issues with space, ergonomics, and work-life balance and I wanted to share my top tips on the common mistakes I see made and how to effectively solve them.
My goal for this video is to help you design a home office space that is comfortable, energizing, elevated and uplifting.

how can a monitor have glare when the back on the monitor is against the window?

@MsSassyMT 3 года назад

Perfect timing. Months later, I'm still working on having the proper home office. Years ago when I worked fulltime from home, I never cared about my office. I just worked there. Now, I want it to be a place I enjoy being in.

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

Now that we spend so much time working from home, I find it essential to a healthier mental state 👍🏻☺️

@kimberlyperrotis8962 2 года назад

I plug in all my lamps, etc. into a power strip attached to the underside of my desk, then I just have the one cord going to the adjacent wall. It really neatens up my office and I no longer catch my feet or chair legs on all those annoying cords. The router and all that is in a basket secured underneath the other work table, in my L-shaped work area.

@JulieKhuu 2 года назад

The perfect tidy solution 🙌🏻

I should have watched this video as soon as it came out! When I first started WFH, I made just about every mistake you called out. I recently went through a job search this year. My initial interviews were conducted with me facing the wall (I didn't get any offers) but once I turned my desk around in a 'command' position facing the door, I nailed all interviews the following week and received 3 job offers. Julie, you sure know what you're talking about. Glad I found your series!

@JulieKhuu 2 года назад

That’s awesome Via! You’re so in tune with your space I love it!! 🙌🏻☺️

@brontesaurusrex7235 2 года назад

This video helped me so much in a small, but important way when I moved classrooms before this school year. Turning my desk to face the door changed everything about how I feel in the space.

@JulieKhuu 2 года назад

My office is getting better even though I've worked from home pre-covid. It's never felt "right" though. After watching this I spotted SEVERAL things that I instantly knew would make me feel better if I just shuffled the furniture and added some inexpensive touches. Thank you! This was very straight forward.

@sarahofer4368 3 года назад

This was a great topic for these days, when working from home has become so widespread. I've been working from home for several years and I absolutely love it! This winter I will give my home office a face-lift with fresh paint, some new art pieces and maybe even change up the color scheme, just a tad.

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

A little refresh changes the entire vibe 🙌🏻

@manishjape3196 2 года назад

I totally agree with you on the point. You really impressed me at the time 4:40 when you said it should be facing the door. This is so ridiculously awesome point that every video of home office set keep missing it. Finally it is about privacy and being in control of the space. I do not want to be ghosted from behind my back. So many other idiots keeps telling in their videos that use your wall for screen placement and hide the wires etc.

@JulieKhuu 2 года назад

You can run the wires against a single wall/ side of your desk and still be able to face the door 👍🏻 Thank you for watching Manish!

This is the best WFH office I have seen in a year. You have no clue how many times I have witch from one place to another, finally donating everything in one of our spare room and use it as an office. I did what you said one thing at the time first buying a light weight white desk long enough to support monitor pc, then a tray for key boar and mouse. Now waithing on the chair..and of course shooping my home first for decor. Congratulations on this video.

@martinegiddings557 Год назад

Brilliant suggestions - just got my husband to move his desk to a more "in command" position. He used to have it there anyway, then for some strange reason moved it to facing a wall where his back was to the door - ewwhh soooo not good.... Well sadly he lost his job at the beginning of year 2023, however fast forward to now - with his great skillset and experience, he got his new position plus I made sure he had some great crystals to hand, With your guidance, I persuaded him, this weekend, that he needed to move his desk position back to where it was which was in a good 'In Command Position' facing the door - let the good times roll!!! Thank you x

Great video! How do you address rug placement in an office? Does the entire desk need to be on the rug, or just a portion? How about the rolling chair - does it need to be entirely on the rug? And is it similar to dining room allowances, where you need 3 feet of clearance to roll the chair back?

The desk is too small, and the furniture is in a u-shape around the perimeter. This video has given me so many ideas...from space & floor planning to decor. Thank you!

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

Think of the bare minimum needed for each zone and measure it out accordingly on a sketch of the room Jacqueline. Definitely doable if you create a designated area for each. No more, no less. If it’s still tight, something has to go or else you won’t find success in any of the three

Yes, great tip Nadine! Especially now that offices are downsizing, so many good deals out there 👍🏻

Love your channel and all the help you're always giving, but just wanted to add: the feng shui rule to have the desk not against a wall is perfect for certain types of offices. For ex: we just designed our new home office, and just like our current one, we put an ultra long double desk (actually made from a kitchen countertop :-p) againt a wall: we're a couple of gamers working from home in gaming/cloud engineering: we need our wall mount screens (2 each) and multiples computers with the associated lighting bouncing of the wall behind our screens. And we like to look at each other screens, so sometimes functionnality has to come first and the ideal design second ;-) like you always say, we need to adapt to our way of living^^

Function always comes first in my book Clodecker! You’re prioritizing your needs, the rest is a bonus 🙌🏻☺️

I did the same thing and I love it. Two desks that are identical (chairs, lamps, computers) and one huge piece of art in between them. I have the rug and I plan to put a small conference table behind us so when you first come in you see that instead of the back of our chairs. The back of the desks are not pretty. Gotta do what ya gotta do

As usual you are right on time with great content. I just started putting together my home office last week and I'm excited to make it my own. I'm happy to see that what I've done so far is right on target with your tips.

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

Awesome, I bet it feels awesome to work in a space you’ve designed just for you 🙌🏻

I stumbled upon your channel 2 days ago. I am so glad I did. You are so informative on so many levels. I will be decorating my new home in January and I'm so grateful for all these tips. I just wish you were here! Lol I'd turn it all over to you! ( hmmm...gotta think of the budget) Thanks a mil for sharing your expertise. Btw I subscribed during the first video and have been binge watching and sharing.

Great video - loved all the ideas and examples! I hope you will do one on how to decorate a windowless room (yeah...my home office has all the charm of a jail cell)

Slightly off topic but your look in this video is amazing! Love this video, but my husband got to choose the style for the office.

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

Thank you for watching Emily! I’m sure you put your stamp on the rest of the home though 😄🙌🏻

Really enjoying your videos. I have this mental block with my office. Its used for sewing, an office and a 2 seater couch with coffee table...not feeling productive at all in this space

@JulieKhuu 2 года назад

Maybe start with changing the placement of the desk Bianca. Check out my small space series- the new episode on guestroom/home office may help inspire you 👍🏻☺️

Switching up a career in the middle of a pandemic is TOUGH. BUT ... The idea of creating my own space that is functional and personal to my needs / goals is really fun and exciting! Excited to start working from home.

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

It all starts with creating a haven we’re inspired by Natasha 👍🏻

Hi Julie, great video. 💗 I am going to have a study nook. I will not have a separate room for the office. I prefer to be around dining or living. I have a 4x4m space living. I love a tiny corner 👌 and to have essentials only. Thanks a lot. Got tips from this. 💗💗💗

@JulieKhuu 3 года назад

Essentials only help to open the space up for other things you love Saro 🙌🏻☺️
