Creating a cozy home office & library | Room makeover

Our first official room makeover in the new apartment ✨ I didn't plan on finishing the home office first, but it actually makes a lot of sense. I'm really happy we get to have a workspace that's cozy and inspires us to create and be productive :-)

Recently I found your channel when looking for IKEA DIY's. I wasn't expecting to spend the next few hours watching your channel, but here I am!! The time and effort you put into each project can be seen in the beautiful results. 👏 👏 👏

[@dkong7264]

Most of the people who ask questions like "where is that from" are obviously the ones who skipped to the end of the video... she literally wrote everything down in detail in her video captions AND description!

[@sheenasproule5335]

You have such a gift for storytelling in these vlogs. Not only do you make the space beautiful but your videos are all thriller and no filler! I learn so much and find your work really inspiring!

Thank you Hill for sharing your art with us, it is extremely therapeutic to watch and help reduce my anxiety

Many people underestimate the importance of working in an environment that really stimulates productivity and efficiency and could be, somehow, a source of inspiration. It's what I've been trying to achieve in my home office, but there are really many details that have to be taken into account, from lighting to the ergonomics of the furniture. We just ordered a Protractor desk from Manhattan Home Design and I think that's off to a good start. Watching these kinds of videos helps me orient myself; thanks for sharing it!

[@m_vorobyova]

This is so cozy and wonderful, I would put myself a mattress and sleep there 😅 Your videos inspire so much for changes, that I even show this to my boyfriend and tell him I'd like to do a makeover someday, I hope he won't run away 😅 Looking forward to your next videos ❤

[@ANJABALANJA1]

[@tamarrionlash84]

It's so good! I like the table especially.

[@laraangel6862]

mi piace, il tocco delle gambe vintage della scrivania e della copertura in tela dell'anta lo trovo molto azzeccato per donare degli sprazzi di classico in un ambiente moderno e pratico

Woww what a great space.I envy you. Love your aesthetic. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌

[@NinneHerrera]

I don't know which of the two workspaces is my favourite, this one or the previous one... I just LOVE them. My favorite part about the makeover, is the confidence with which you handle the tools! Girl, I can barely handle a drill and a hammer 🤣 you always leave me speechless with your videos, thank you Hills ❤️🫶🏻

[@debranielsen2002]

I was just wondering yesterday when we would see how the new place is coming along. 😁 Looks great. You really could do this for a living.

Damn son, this is a fabulous space for being so simple. Great job!

I just saw the poster, I am from Darmstadt and live in Alabama at the moment. Funny how just seeing the name of your home makes one feel good. We will be moving back to Germany soon and I love all your projects and being able to see how you translate international trends and DIY's to German products.

I m so amazed and proud of how a sporean girl can be such a handy-lady. Normally many modern ladies are not able to whip up a proper meal or do some simple chores, let alone pick up the tools and start drillings. Our space is so small here and many times we rely on outsourcing to do it. We are not able to do much in a HDB. I guess only sporeans are able to relate what I am talking about. I would love to diy and i m so envious of u! Jiayou girl!

[@johncasey4077]

Your office space looks great you did a great job on it

[@SirMopy]

jeeeeezzz so cool!!! can you make a video about the working tools you have and use? I'm actually searching for good tools to have a base and start doing some DIY stuff myself. but this only works if you have the right tools at home. your tools look very high quality and seems like a system where you can change out a lot of stuff. :)
