When REALTOR® Magazine was looking for sources to discuss the pandemic’s impact on home office design, we wasted no time connecting reporter Barbara Ballinger with Taylor Johnson clients KTGY Architecture + Planning, Lexington Homes and Mary Cook Associates. While commercial interior design firm Mary Cook Associates has been busy helping developers and builders reconfigure existing spaces into well-designed offices that are flexible enough to meet the needs of multiple family members, Lexington Homes has found its townhome floor plans with a dedicated office on the main level, finished lower level or second-floor loft/landing are in high demand with a variety of buyers. And KTGY shared how the firm is repurposing spaces to create small, quiet areas with a door for phone and Zoom calls. Read more here about how the pandemic is affecting home office design now and in the future.
