"When I moved from New York back to my hometown of Chicago a few years ago, I was so excited to finally have space in my apartment for an at-home office area. I wanted it to be light, comfortable, and facing away from my kitchen and living room to help me concentrate. Having a big monitor is a game-changer for me since I work on my computer all day. Hunching over a laptop is so uncomfortable, so that was my first priority. After that, I got the desk from Wayfair (similar one here), the bookshelf from Target, and filled in the rest of the space with books, family photos, and random decor pieces that make me happy." — Caitlin Gallagher, Senior Living Editor
