Picture it: 2023, your WFH space. You’d think by now we’d have it all figured out, but do we really? The answer is: There’s always room for improvement!Peggy Lin, a producer at Apartment Therapy, shared a look at her WFH setup that’s focused on maximizing well-being at work.

Fact: The best WFH space is the one that works for you. Finding the right tools to get the job done is the main goal for any desk setup — but a good dose of style doesn’t hurt, either.Logitech® is on a mission to deliver the right equipment, both practically and stylishly, to everyone’s office space. To see how well their designs can enhance any setup, look to Apartment Therapy Social Media Manager Sam O’Brochta’s Y2K-inspired desk.

It’s the most colorful time of the year! If you’ve been planning a paint project or are suddenly inspired to add more color to your walls, look to Benjamin Moore’s 2024 Color of the Year: the delightfully violet-and-blue-hued Blue Nova 825. Feeling the blues has never felt so good.

If you want to feel really accomplished right now, here’s a fun fact: according to experts, we take about 22,000 breaths a day. Give yourself a pat on the back (or chest) for that accomplishment. That said, it’s obvious to everyone that we’ve recently had some major wake-up calls in terms of the quality of the air we breathe. Extreme events, such as the wildfires we’ve seen this summer, affected air quality for millions. But there’s more in the mix than that.

I’m a lazy cleaner and am not ashamed to admit it. For years, I’ve relied on a robot vacuum to help free up my Saturday mornings, but I’ve always been skeptical of robot vacuum/mop hybrids. I thought mopping required a little more elbow grease than a robot could muster.That was before I met this robot.

Whether you tend to sleep hot or cold, finding the right bedding means the difference between a great night’s sleep or an uncomfortable wake-up call at 3 a.m. Linen and cotton are both great choices for breathability and coziness, but the most practical, affordable, and sustainable option is something you’ve probably never heard of.

Sijo, the direct-to-consumer brand offering chic, sustainable, and surprisingly affordable bedding, has spent a lot of time thinking about about sleep. Their cozy duvet inserts, sheet bundles, pillows, and more are designed to give you better ZZZ’s without taking so much from the environment — largely thanks to their versatile and renewable ingredient: eucalyptus.

Hilton Carter, our resident Plant Therapist, is an all-around expert when it comes to caring for and styling all your plants at home. So when Greendigs, the online plant retailer that ships right to your door, reached out to see if Hilton would be interested in sharing a few of his favorite plants, tools, and accessories with AT readers, we obviously said yes!

Hilton Carter, AT’s resident Plant Therapist, knows a thing or two about helping houseplants live their best lives. But besides keeping plants happy and healthy, he’s also a pro at coming up with ideas on how to style them in your space — even if you’re working with low light, limited surfaces, or just want to give a room a green glow-up. We asked our Instagram followers for their houseplant styling questions, and Hilton had some great solutions for them.

Oyin Antwi, Apartment Therapy contributor and cofounder of Via Asha Design, and her husband landed in a new Brooklyn rental just before the world started shutting down last year, which ended up being a great move since their space turned out to be, in Oyin’s own words, “exactly what the doctor prescribed to heal.” You may recognize her apartment from her home tour. Her space is already gorgeous, but even pro designers need a refresh every once in a while.

Johanna Beach is an interior designer and serious DIY expert (we’ve previously consulted with her for expert cloffice tips) who lives in the Windy City and is lucky enough to have a small but beautiful balcony with cascading ivy and an exposed brick wall. Given that Chicago balconies aren’t exactly year-round spaces, Johanna wanted to give hers a refresh to be sure it could meet its full potential and get more use than ever this summer.
