With remote work becoming the new normal for millions of people around the world, home offices have never mattered more.

Bookshelves and walls have become conference call backdrops, exposing our private preferences or perhaps lack of time spent organizing or decorating. 

From her own home, London-based architect and designer Dara Huang has been sharing simple tips on how to turn living areas into more stylish workspaces.

"You have to want to make small improvements that can build up over time. If you do things incrementally, you end up benefiting from those results," said Huang, the founder of Design Haus Liberty, an international firm that has worked on commercial, hospitality, and retail projects for clients such as The Four Seasons and Cartier.

Below, Huang discusses design tips for maximizing productivity, the importance of personal space and how to arrange the perfect bookshelf.
