Houzz Call: Show Us Your Hardworking Studio!
The studio may not be a room included in every floor plan, but most Houzzers crave one. It’s a space that exists for our work or pleasure, giving us room to create and take chances without worrying about spills or putting everything away before guests arrive.
Have you created a studio that helps you do your best work, whether that’s drawing, painting, sculpting, recording or building things? No matter if it’s a backyard shed, a spare room or a dedicated a corner in the living room — we want to see it and hear how you’ve made your space work hard for you.

Designers: Post a picture of a studio you’ve designed. Tell us what it’s used for, how you organized it and how you designed the space to make it work very hard for your clients.
