My sister said my desk looked like a hospital waiting room, so I added one thing
My sister came over in January and told me my setup had "all the warmth of a dentist's office." She was not being mean, just honest, and she was right about the gray lamp and the bare white walls. So I put a small trailing pothos on the corner of my desk near the window and swapped the lamp for a warmer bulb, and somehow the space feels calmer now. Has anyone else had a family member point out something obvious about their desk that they could not see themselves?
