1. This person who doesn't need anything fancy, but does need a delegated space to help get them into ~work mode~.
I telecommute so I need to create boundaries in my home. What works for me is to have a dedicated space where I only go when I am working. I try to keep the area neat(ish) so I can focus on the task at hand but I like a few little doodads to add a little joy to my day.

I work with adults and kids, so I try to keep a balance of professionalism, comfort, and whimsy. The ice cream cone is a stress squishy, my agenda is holographic, and my cork board has inspiring art and photos. The map is the First Nations traditional territory that I live and work in.
