Odd shaped den/office guest room ideas
I live in a classic 1 bed Chicago apartment from 1901 so the rooms are all shaped odd (but with tall ceilings and a lot of character) and I have this den under the stairs that I have used as an office but want to add some sort of sleeping arrangement for guests.

New Desk Chair!

A work-in-progress WFH office
About four months in, my 450 square-feet studio apartment is still a messy work in progress, but at least my office corner is beginning to look a little more inviting, as well as functional.

Optimizing my WFH office nook
I'd like to optimize my WFH office nook to be more pleasant, more intentionally created. I've been using this for 2 years since coming back to work post-baby, and decor/ambience has not been my priority most of this time. I am currently 2-3 days/week here.
