Streamlining Home + Work Spaces

Streamlining the intersection of home and work.

While we are sheltered in place, we’re perhaps more focused on our homes than ever as we figure out how to create WFH spaces, navigate being around the people we live with constantly, and refresh for the new season. In this workshop, San Francisco-based fashion, lifestyle, and travel photographer, art director, and stylist, Anna-Alexia Basile walks us through how to de-clutter, organize, and streamline each space functionally and aesthetically so each room is used to its prime potential.

As a self-employed photographer, organization has been key to Anna-Alexia’s success—both in how she executes her creative projects as well as how she runs her business. In the last eight years of working from home she’s realized that maintaining an inspiring, efficient, and cozy space has been paramount to producing her best work, and she’s excited to share her spacial tips with you!

What you’ll get out of this: 

• A step-by-step walk through with an in-depth analysis of the kitchen, living room, work space, bedroom, and closet with a breakdown of arrangement by activity, furniture, and decor placement.
• Tips on how to create a work from home station on a budget and establish boundaries.
• Learn how to de-clutter, determine what’s important to keep, organize, and make it all beautiful.
