How to design a HIGHLY CREATIVE OFFICE ft. Peter Mckinnon

[@thechrishau]

Drinking game. Do a shot for everytime I say “right now” in this video! Haha jokes aside. Do you have any other suggestions for our office!?

[@LizziePeirce]

Chris Hau deal.

[@pedromnsg]

You should call it "the bunker"...it is missing some windows ;)

[@Joey.Alford]

Trying to get me intoxicated on a Friday morning eh lmao!

[@HeyThisIsAndrew]

It is like 6am I will do shots of espresso

[@NorthernTallow]

Bring back the "hundo P" !

[@PeterMcKinnon]

STRIKE ZONE! I will forever and always call it the strike zone, no matter what you name it :)

[@thechrishau]

Peter McKinnon haha. I’ll make a sign just for when you come ;)

[@favrerules99]

You’d have so many built in “I’m in the Zone” Puns to work with

[@Kathadocumentingtales]

How about MANE CAVE?...but for that chris needs to regrow his hairs to full Length.....Lizzie already has her hairs long!

[@augustuscaesarorquita8612]

The Alley!

[@PublicTechAdvisor]

nice collab

[@JesseDriftwood]

Watching Peter's brain work is inane, just on another level with this stuff.

[@thechrishau]

JesseDriftwood right!? He’s legit a genius

[@DanielLandsverk0]

It really shows how creative and solution-oriented that man is. Wish I had like 10% of his creativity. What that being said, you're all creative, awesome people.

[@JohnnyYoungMedia]

Studio: Artistic/creative space. Office: Workplace. How you identify with your surroundings has a dynamic impact on how your energy is invested. I never refer to my creative place as an office because it puts a subconscious limit on my creative possibilities. Is being in my studio a form of work, of course it is but its also my favorite place to be. Identify with what it is for you and let that reflect your most honest expression of that! PS: THE NEST! Honestly, it sounds perfectly fitting considering its your's and Lizzie's space and couples nest/create together.

[@9Tech]

I'm a subscriber since both of those guys had long hair... I'm an old one, yes.

[@lucaspellicer]

9Tech samee

[@thechrishau]

9Tech og and we appreciate you

[@Greece-gl4mt]

Me too!!!

[@Karen.c.h]

9Tech Im screaming bring back the long hair!

[@PeterPaulRebel]

Haha great comment. Me too. Following these 2 most inspiring photographers on the planet since years now. 😊

[@BeckiandChris]

Pete dropping the layout knowledge! Also if you don't call this space the strike zone I will be so sad!

[@thechrishau]

FINE IT'S STRIKE ZONE

[@PeterMcKinnon]

Learned from the best! haha

[@RealJamesArcher]

Best line: "Is that Benjamin Moore?"

[@thechrishau]

James Archer // Film & Photo hahaha right!? Hail navy for life.

[@birkren9862]

Absolutely love collaborations with some of my favorite youtubers

[@thechrishau]

Birk Øren glad you enjoyed it!

[@Fenixventure]

I am commenting before watching just to say I love seeing people in their workspace when setting it up. Helps inspire simple changes on my own setup at home!

[@thechrishau]

Avint S yessss!

[@IzHarris]

lolol the ramble at the end "well there's a lot of things to do" *how I feel everytime I close out a vid*

[@JHawk]

Facts! Same lol

[@thechrishau]

Iz Harris haha. Way to many asks as a KZbinr

[@KevinMorris3]

You can really see how passionate Peter is about this stuff!!!

[@birkren9862]

Hahah, Peters face when you said you worked from home.. Priceless!

[@thechrishau]

Birk Øren Lololol.

[@LizziePeirce]

Great video! So funny that a lot of these ideas we had thought of already - shows we were on the right track!

[@SlideWreckDan]

@@wyounus no. Make good content and keep making them. Let people subscribe because they genuinely want to. Unearned subs are worthless.

[@cweb1988]

that table though. So good. And also.....I love stuff like this. Studio space layout and set up.

[@AmritaBhortake]

This was amazing. Designing my own studio space right now and got so many ideas. I love the idea of not having everything hug the walls.

[@SidneyDiongzon]

LOVE THIS!! Getting inspired to redo my office!

[@thechrishau]

Sidney Diongzon 👊🏻😊🤙🏻 yesss dude

[@SeanColey]

I vote: The Haus "Have fun down there!"

[@yourmajesty3569]

That name is sick. But I'm sensing all kinds of confusion with that name. They'd have to tweak it to Ze Haus.

[@benmccarthy3177]

"Is that Benjamin Moore" You know someone is a full adult when he knows a paint by it's name

[@thechrishau]

haha - if you know you know.

[@kenkunkel]

Is that a really dark navy blue or black? What's the name of the color? It looks amazing

[@gilleskesteleyn7457]

What about "The Alley" as in bowling alley

[@thechrishau]

Gilles Kesteleyn ohh I like that name too!

[@JasonLorette]

That’s a good one!

[@Cullens_Workshop]

Scissor clips are great! We use them a lot on locations. Just make sure your drop ceiling is secure. Sometimes people remodel and remove the bracing.

[@thechrishau]

Cullens Workshop haha - I’ll have to pop one of them up and double check!

[@iamdaytona]

Good job on sticking to the tea! Hopefully it has been helping with anxiety. Also, really digging the new office. That layout is SO dope! Definitely call it "strike zone" haha! Thank you for sharing your thoughts in this video.

[@thechrishau]

Daytona D. Tea is life!

[@Golfadventureswithchris]

So many great options with the lay out that going to be so much fun going through the process

[@Leffilia]

"The Haus" I like it.

[@StephenBell_video]

Best sign off ever! Go have fun down there- nailed it 👏

[@EasyTigerCreative]

I’m learning so much from you! Thanks again for sharing bro. Keep it up!

[@thechrishau]

Easy Tiger Creative glad you are enjoying it! :)

[@ArcSpidr]

Regarding the "is it an office or is it a studio?" discussion, as an architect/photographer, I would have to say that "studio" has more of a creative/productive connotation, whereas "office" has more of a business, mundane connotation. Also, I'm from Chicago, with family in Toronto, and I totally remember Art Attack! loved seeing it when I would visit!

[@bulamondal6814]

So Awesome to see you guys together

[@adrianaction]

Love the style! The table looks too damn good! 😍 The podcast corner is also totally awesome 😊

[@LearnPhotography]

Absolutely creative..like the wood texture. You can name it as "Shoot at Site" :-)

[@vivekkanna]

that's a good one

[@davidm.wilson3736]

Chris gathering office (studio) is dope. Pete has a lot of great ideas. I agree with Pete regarding works of art, or at least some of the creative photos that you and Lizzy have taken during your travels; Some work, some fun, but must inspire. Be safe. David (Australia)

[@HeroGoPro1]

At 4:58 it reminds me of Sheldon on the big bang theory, and how only he can sit in his spot on the sofa😂

[@thechrishau]

Adam Hansen bahaha.

[@CaleReacts]

We actually discussed this in our marketing class today! Studio is DEFINITELY a more appropriate title for a creative space 🤣 As for a name? Well... since there’s an egg chair... maybe the “coup”? I feel since the chair is so legendary we need to give it the recognition it deserves. “Why do you call it the coup?” *opens door* “CAUSE THERES AN EGG CHAIR!” 🤣

[@JRU1977]

Black ceiling tiles. A must!

[@JussiAlexander]

Wow I didn't know that there's sound panels that you can have art on! That great, cause you have two uses for them!

[@jeffwoodall9285]

Interesting hearing all these ideas. Looking forward to seeing the after video and how many of Peter's suggestions get used. Particularly like the idea of the dropped ceiling mounted stuff.

[@HubbardSteve]

Just did all the KZbin things.... Twice! Also took some good notes from the Pirate himself! Can't wait to see the space come along. I'm building a new bedroom studio soon as well!

[@YourStoryStudios]

Nice! Love seeing other creative spaces and studios.

[@Escuelapsicodelica]

Hahahha nice to see you guys hanging out together, love you twooo

[@Fenixventure]

For naming the "studio" I think calling it the Studio or Office in causal conversation works,. Its the office to clients and Studio to creative friends. I think once you have the place furnished more then you will know its style. Is it the Hau Gala, the Space, the shop, the passport, the Basket (chair love) or the Alley. But I would say you have a 6 month leeway before you name the location to know what the space feels like and then name it based on that.

[@IngiHaralds]

Welcome to coloring with Pete ! sick studioffice man!

[@brandonsauer5739]

You should call the studio "Against the Grain". Mad jelly on your new creative space, Chris! 🤙

[@tylermusgrave7500]

Definitely Studio sounds more modern...2020 style

[@thechrishau]

Tyler Musgrave studio for life!

[@gomitolodilana]

I loved this video... Can't wait to see how you develop your new space/studio/office! Enjoy the process bye

[@pedrocjr.93]

"Go have fun down there!" That's what she said.

[@ChrisProuse]

Nice! Stoked to see how it turns out :)

[@scootydub]

The dude is a wizard! Great insight. Thanks for sharing!

[@jaredfilms]

Peter‘s new Studio is the Cage! hahaa

[@YannickFilms]

Art Attack was also available in Germany, watched it as a child. Great Show!🥰

[@jaderene]

Studio, thinking that it’s just a word, but the reality it’s more than that, it’s a space where you can feel and be creative, a place where friends and family can come and feel as though they are home and relax and have casual and meaningful conversations! An office sounds like a place where you’re stuck, there’s no room for creativity to flow. just my honest opinion.

[@JordanPritchard]

When its 1AM but Chris Hau has released a video so you gotta watch it 😀😀

[@amadorcastingpr]

I can’t wait to see the office finished 🤯

[@TechJockeyHD]

obsessed with that carpet, well sir... thats everywhere in my house.

[@DreamKaster_tv]

Office sounds "old school" going to the office to fax stuff. Studio is the new age. I like Studio. Funny, I like Lizzy is just all chill for so long until you interact with her. Love that chair btw!

[@redbasemedia]

Both of you guys are awesome. I love it when you guys collab.

[@MrGrungydude]

I love this thumbnail, it's the "sorry guys, mom said I had to bring my little brother with me if I was going out" lol great video, can't wait to make my own space

[@TAPPChannel]

studio bring more expectations with it and rises the post higher than office :D

[@kaylabutler8191]

I JUST got my own studios as well!!! This super helped me put my own creatives space!! I also have separate rooms in my “studio” with an “office” (computer editing space)!!

[@imakeimages7141]

I just got a new space after having been so inspired by you guys to get started with a new channel. I keep calling it studio/office as well. What a great idea to give it a name!!!

[@JCRoShow]

id paint the ceiling to match the dark wall, always adds dimension for me in my smaller spaces

[@ThePatels]

A Studio represents a business where you can also have an office. An office is an area where you conduct your work which is related to your business You can have an office in a studio but you cannot have a studio in a office. Studio can have, work area (aka office), kitchen, storage area, lounge area, sitting area. That is why most people say I am going to work not office but creative heads say we are going to studio not work 😊👍🏼

[@seb_gibbs]

studio for creative recording work. office for pc and office type of work. if your doing both in the space, then both applies.

[@linpaul]

Omg I used to watch Art Attack in the UK! It was so good!!

[@derrekord]

STUDIO! Stu-stu-studiiioooooooooo!

[@brandonrice3333]

For a space like yours I would definitely go for studio. For Peter’s it’s more a office that could have a studio in it.

[@theadventuresofzoomandbettie]

IT'S AN ART ATTACK!!!!

[@TubeThings]

I love David’s tea!!! 🥰

[@TubeThings]

Also, art attack and PMK were my favourite shows growing up. BECAUSE PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW!!!! lol

[@NeilQ1962]

Hey Chris - how about calling the studio “The 500” as in 500sq ft?

[@JonJagsNee]

I recommend Nano leafs and / or all phillips hue because COLOR

[@thechrishau]

GOOD CALL

[@CraigGalleyWeddingFilms]

Art Attack was a British show for kids. Major nostalgia there!

[@thechrishau]

Craig Galley was it?? TILS

[@CraigGalleyWeddingFilms]

Oh yeah - 90s kids tea-time show. New Studioffice looking good Chris!

[@MrTerryRay1]

What's the name of the song at the end that played behind the b roll of the bowling pins etc? It sounds really good.

[@ryansnaadt]

I keep getting inspired to redesign my office as well!

[@fdfgoncalves]

Hi Chris Hau, what the color name of dark the wall? Love the office! Thanks!

[@dslrvideoshooter]

Love this kind of thing! Great work gents 👍

[@thechrishau]

DSLR Video Shooter ehh thanks so much Caleb :)

[@Tech4YourNeeds]

I would call it STUDIO that is the clear winner.

[@TheLucyMartin]

Still think you need a FULL bowling kit. I'm talking pins & a big ol' ball. DO IT.

[@thechrishau]

Lucy Martin hahah. We’d be that unit that everyone hates

[@stormfalconstudios1108]

Well, we're Storm Falcon Studios and we call our space Storm Falcon Keep, or just "The Keep" for short. Your space has an eclectic feel, maybe even almost rustic-ish... What about The Lodge?

[@flinsou]

Hey @chris, what is the color code of the dark wall ? Building a winebar and this could be the color i'm looking for

[@lvnr]

ahh.. that intro music..It feels so much like peter's earlier vlogs.. How nostalgic😁

[@pablogonzalez8304]

Pete's ideas sound functional. Get on it Chris!

[@thechrishau]

Pablo Gonzalez he has a lot of great suggestions

[@pablogonzalez8304]

@@thechrishau I am sure he does. It does sound pretty good though but at the end of the day it's your office/studio

[@hankblack1]

Chris you should call it THE BANG!

[@zackrevilla]

thought it would be cool to call it “the lion’s den” or “the den” kinda inspired by the old Lion logo you had

[@thechrishau]

Zack Revilla ohh that’s a money name too!

[@DukeMorse]

I gotta swing by the studio

[@speliotis]

look forward to seeing the remodel....

[@TJolley]

Definitely helpful appreciate it ! Can't wait for whenever I get a studio space lol

[@MichaelWarthStudios]

I just noticed Hau much you look like Ricky Schroder from the 'Silver Spoons' sitcom days. 😂No disrespect, happy to see you getting a new studio!

[@joelhypponen]

This was so amazing man, super interesting one!

[@thechrishau]

Joel Hypponen thanks brother! :) hope you’re having fun in Switzerland :)

[@chrisbowpiloto]

Very nice! I don't know why, but I really enjoy this topic

[@TheJeffAbel]

You mention some cool sound panels - any specific recommendations?

[@kristiansvendsen6549]

Call it "the space" "oh where are you going? "you know just the space" "creative space?" "no THE space"

[@j.schofield6585]

Where did u get that table specially the bench for the table

[@JHawk]

Yo what??? I mean what better way to start off friday lets go

[@RockstarCinema]

I love your little tea 🍵 party

[@juanmatocco5975]

My favorite duo!

[@thechrishau]

Juanma Tocco you’re too kind

[@KristoforLawson]

I'd say that 'studio' designated a particular sort of environment. i.e specifically a filming or recording environment, OR, a small creative space. Office feels more like the whole space. So you might have an office - that includes a studio. Whereas I don't think you'd have a studio that includes an office...

[@four19photo]

The space is going to look amazing, Chris! Really like the wall colour. What Benjamin Moore colour is that? Can't wait to see the finished product!

[@thechrishau]

cw9028 it’s hale navy! :)

[@four19photo]

Chris Hau thanks so much!

[@lylestavast7652]

word to the wise - if you start hanging things from the suspended ceiling rails - get above it and double check that all the wire twists are robust enough to support your intended suspension weight...

[@nuventurer]

“Go have fun down there” 😂

[@OnedgeTV]

This video is right on time. I’m looking for my first office and getting ready to move in. Problem I was having is what to do with it lol. You guys are awesome btw.
