Interview Carina Hölzer
Tips from our interior designer
What should no one have to do without in their home office?
A really good ergonomic chair, good working light, a desk size that is appropriate for the task at hand and a well-organised work-life balance!
What is the most ingenious furnishing trick we can all use in our home office?
The best furnishing trick is... to do everything that promotes physical and mental health and to choose the right furniture with intelligent functions and good design. The aim here is to combine the everyday and functional with the cosy and personal to create a successful and beautiful overall composition.
For me, things like a screen that is shielded against glare or the opportunity to let my gaze wander into the garden or into the distance are important. This opens the mind and relieves the eyes. Depending on the task at hand, I can also consciously incorporate all rooms in my daily routine at home. For example, if I have a reading task, I can do it on the sofa in the living room, and if I need a large surface for my documents, I can use the dining table.
What do you like most about your study?
- My books, which have a lot to do with my work and my personality and which I often miss at the office because they are not within easy reach.
- My own artwork and my pictures, my old wooden cabinet that my father refurbished for me.
- I especially love the view of the garden and the coffee, which is simply fantastic here at home! 😊
