Jasmine Roth may be an HGTV star who's famous for her clever design solutions, but when the start of the pandemic prompted a sudden shift to work-from-home, she did what many others did at the time. "I worked at my dining room table for a year-and-a-half," she says. "I sat on a hard, vintage wooden chair. It was awful!"
Roth oversees multiple renovation projects at once, so she's either routinely hunched over a screen or reviewing paperwork for a site. "I love a good printer—I'm one of those people who still likes to print everything," she jokes. As the time passed, though, she realized how uncomfortable and impractical it was to continue to work in her makeshift office. It was necessary to devise a better solution, while still leaning into the flexibility she had unwittingly adopted. "Like everyone, my husband Brett and I are making it work," she says of the home she shares with him and their daughter Hazel in Huntington Beach, Calif. "I feel like everyone is embracing multi-functional rooms, and for us, that meant carving out an office for me in our game room."
