Work Outdoors

By

Memorial Day isn’t actually the first day of summer (that is June 21) but today in Los Angeles it is a perfect sunny 70 degrees. It feels like everyone should be at the beach or hiking or at least outdoors. For those of us at our desks I’ve found two treehouse offices. I love the idea of working high above the garden surrounded by green. Below is a timber-lined office in Brentwood, Los Angeles designed by Rockefeller Partners Architects.

Loved the article! Life becomes a lot more fun and a joy when architecture and design enable and help people connect with nature. Work is not work anymore but rather a space and time where you create, deliver and have fun.
My husband and I just created a similar “work/office”space at home (in Illinois) and we just love “working” there – my thinking time has become more creative and productive. In addition seating on a Mirra chair makes it even better.
Enjoy the summer!
