My home office is my happy space. Of course I’m not happy 100% of the time, but I am mostly and can truly say I love what I do. Even though working from home has its challenges sometimes, I feel like I have created a comfortable and inspiring spot where I can be both productive and creative. This is so important when working from home isn’t it ?

A few weeks ago I showed you my standing desk here on the blog and I’m still happily switching around between standing up and sitting down. While sitting though I wanted a very comfortable chair that looks stylish as well, something I find very important since I work from home.

The Lassen chair is designed by Flemming Lassen, Magnus Sangild and Marianne Viktor as an ode to Flemming Lassen’s uncompromising approach and special feel for detail, aesthetics, quality and form. The upholstered seat and back is placed on a geometric frame in powder-coated black metal and the dining chair embraces one’s body, letting you sit comfortably for hours on end. I chose a dark blue upholstery (called Jupiter) from Danish Art Weaving which has the prettiest detailing and texture.

I’m so in love with this iconic design piece in my home office and am a big fan of the contrast it adds to the otherwise neutral color palette of whites, beige and wood in this room. On and around the desk I worked with the Kubus Flowerpots, Kubus bowls and accessories from the Frame collection to create a coherent look with lots of storage options. I like to use the Frame boxes to keep post-its, pens and clips and the Frame Tray is keeping things together on my desk itself. The minimal lines of all the byLassen products is like red thread throughout this space and makes for a very coherent look which is minimal yet fresh.

Ever since I quit my day job about three years ago and started to work full-time on my blog and art prints, work hasn’t felt like work anymore. I love what I do and couldn’t be more grateful to be allowed to do this all year round. Even though I love what I do, I still work long days and most of these days are spend in front of my computer. I try to take breaks ever so often and go to the gym daily, but I can feel that being seated in front of the computer for such long stretches of time starts to take its toll on my back.

Things changed completely though ever since I got the Montana furniture HiLow 2 work desk, which is adjustable in height. I’m actually standing at my work desk as we speak, while writing this article. I love the fact that I can alternate between sitting and standing and am switching all day long. The little automatic switch (which you can see in the last picture) makes it so easy to make the desk higher or lower and it just moves with you as you stand up or sit down. 

While I’m sitting down I often get tired and I notice that my attention span reduces. When I switch to a standing position, It feels like I get new energy and I notice I’m way more efficient in completing the tasks I have to do. When I get tired from standing, I just lower the desk again and sit down for a while.

The Hilow 2 work desk is fully customisable and all cables are hidden in a cable tray underneath the table top. I chose to include a built in socket on the table top itself so I can easily plug and unplug my phone and laptop. The work desk is connected with a single plug into the wall socket and you don’t have to worry about any cables being caught behind something when moving the desk up and down.

Next to the desk, I also placed a Montana System drawer element in the color Latte. While the desk is clean and white, I love the soft color combination with the beige of the drawers and it’s so great to keep all the little things that would otherwise crowd my desk.

Ever since decorating the lounge area on my balcony (you can see more pictures in this blogpost) we just had a few good days here in Munich and then a full month of rain and cold so I didn’t get to really enjoy my balcony yet. This week summer hit the city though and I’m taking every chance I get to enjoy my outdoor space. This morning I have been replying emails from my lounge sofa and love how everything just feels so much less like work when you can do it outside.
