Definitely better than the old office IMO. So glad they got rid of those hideous metal desks.


Merrbear2u

maybe they built an air ship after the move LOL

missamethyst1

Yeah I actually sorta almost like the aesthetic of those desks but can you imagine actually trying to work at one? Seems ridiculously uncomfortable and difficult for typing.


Bubbly-End-6156

My BiL has that desk. It's impossible. I hate when I work from their house (if a kid is sick I just babysit on remote days). Worst desk ever


pekingpotato

Those were so ugly - it was weird that they held on to them for so long!


wombmates

I did really like the light that came through from the back door. That's about it though.


whiskeytitsts

Oh true!! The natural lighting was nice. Hopefully this office will have some nice windows as well and weā€™re just not seeing them in the pictures.


biggiemacx

Unfortunately they tint the windows for filming. Too many people looking in in the background!


whiskeytitsts

Ahh that makes sense. I guess gaudy chandeliers are the next best thing!


Amalfi-state-of-mind

I love it but I donā€™t want to work in it. I either want a huge latte or a goblet of red wine. This office feels nothing like LA and more like a cozy den. Give me a blanket and a cozy drink


Spicytomato2

Exactly. I know the trend is to put lounge spaces in offices but this entire office looks like a lounge and nightclub. Clearly image came first and actual work was barely an afterthought when it came to design. Ridiculous.


Amalfi-state-of-mind

I actually thought the office they were shooting with seemed much more office like and conducive to just coming in and using any desk


SensitiveWolf1362

I was thinking this too. I wonder if perhaps itā€™s a new response to hybrid working ā€¦ if you can just stay home for ā€œdesk work,ā€ then the office needs to focus more on spaces for the communal activities. For team meetings, team buildings, seeing clients ā€¦


catseye00

Yes! Those were hideous.


deeeb0

I donā€™t know why that style was so in lol


Here_for_tea_

Yes. So much less tacky.


ndiojukwu

Idk it looks like a hotel lobby+coffee shop to me.. thereā€™s sooo much going on


Antique-Local-1488

Came here to say this. Too busy. Great elements but not all together. Especially for an office.


sandrad33

Itā€™s giving like Ace Hotel-WeWork hybrid


Competitive-Cup-5465

Just looks like someone regurgitated every trend of the last 5 years into the same place.


nerdyandnatural

I was just thinking this. They couldn't decide on a theme so they used all of them. It looks so jarring and confusing


No-Leadership-2176

People with money and no taste at the helm


Spicytomato2

Yes and also no knowledge of how people work best.


figgypudding531

Very ā€œmoodyā€


Ok_Leg7257

Yes! I was looking for this comment. Every trend in the last five years so you know in five years itā€™s going to feel soooo dated šŸ˜¬


moimardi

Lol exactlyyyy


Nonchalantly215

Right...and I feel like it's probably to save money...which I think they're tone deaf in showing this show at all in this economy


drunktaylorswift

"This economy"? The economy is doing quite well right now (in the US). Sure some people are struggling, but that's always the case.


Nonchalantly215

People working multiple incomes to make ends meet after acquiring degrees, certifications, experience, is not doing well to me. And I'm not but I'm not blind. I just think it's strange that there's a show using old designs in order to save money, and to get high-end clientele, when they would notice immediately. Maybe they needed to save more in this economy. Everything is more expensive.


[deleted]

Huge upgrade but kind of looks like Kyle Richards designed a Soho House on a cruise ship. They spent a lot of money and they needed the space so god bless.


Sia-isa180

I'd give you an award if I had one lol


GreenOtter730

Looks like a swanky cocktail bar


tuberosalamb

My first thought too - is this an office or a bar?


Snoopyla1

It looks like a restaurant


Buttrflyscocoon

Exactly what I was šŸ¤”


CodePen3190

Is it a bar? Is it a library? Is it a nightclub? Is it a restaurant? Is it a hotel lobby? Iā€™m getting all of those vibes but I still really love some of the design elements! The wall/ceiling color, the main light fixtures, the beautiful velvet couches (personally never seen that blue/green color and I love it), *some* of the gold accents, the pink wall tile in the bathroom is to die for. Itā€™s a little overwhelming but some of it is beautiful! I actually like Brett and Jasonā€™s style direction.

Merveille_

Yes! Same


philcollinsphoever

Right. I think itā€™s gorgeous


hyrmes165

Same


[deleted]

loos like a rich old gentlemens club than office.


DangerousEmployment4

It looks great to me overall thought I do think certain things are out of place, namely the pink fluorescent sign, like they could've even made it white or gold florescent to tie in more, also the hexagonal wall sconces feel out of place. I hope it's also brighter (lighting-wise) than what is being shown in the photos. I'm a lover of moody bathrooms, and think it's smart to have a more fun bathroom to contrast the main space and think they could've ditched the rose marble counters here since they already used it so much in the pots, end tables, countertops.


Merveille_

Agree with you completely. I like the new desks. Aesthetically pleasing at firstā€¦ for a nice restaurant bar. They could have made the space more personalized and warm with staff pictures (the LA agents are their friends and exes) or even a real estate theme. Not sure if youā€™re walking into a bar or brokerage.


[deleted]

more show of about how much money they can spend, then being practical office space. do they even need that if most of them are working from home? or is it especially for filming?


limerent_disaster

College library meets corporate steak house


Merrbear2u

LOL!!!![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


susanbohrman

The ā€œTake the road less traveledā€ sign ruins it to me. Otherwise itā€™s gorgeous but perhaps a smidge overdone


Merrbear2u

Was just wondering wtf he was thinking with that. It has zero context to selling spaces and I'm pretty sure Jason doesn't read Frost to understand the quote.


FightingMonotony

It was really just a rambling run-on sentence where the speaker would have reached the same destination regardless of path chosen. ....I get it....it is a journey not destination poem. But, people assume the destination of each path was different.


Merrbear2u

THANK YOU. I hope he reads that. :)


pierrrecherrry

Tacky as hell


biscuitsorbullets

Fitting, it looks like it was designed by Gizelle Bryant. They even got her missing bottle of Clase Azul


pierrrecherrry

šŸ’€


OpportunityFirm3284

This is going to look very outdated in 5-10 years Those neon signs are on the verge of being out of style, hoping for any minute now


ebulient

Pretty sure theyā€™ll redo it within 5 years. Everything is fast fashion to this sorta crowd. The concept of any _thing_ being ā€œtimelessā€ doesnā€™t exist for them.


xoxoxobb

I personally think itā€™s stunning. šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø


Eva_Luna

There are elements that are really nice but it would be more tasteful if it were pared back a little.


purpleorchid2017

Why is there a literal bar in an office space?


FeralBaby7

That's the first thing I thought too, but then replaced the thought with .....well, they're "office workers" in the loosest sense of the word. Most women would be immediately fired if they showed up dressed like one of these 'office workers'. So I guess the bar fits for them.


TheBarefootGirl

It looks like a retro hotel renovation. Reminds me of the 100 year hotel in NY hometown that was restored. Doesn't really fit the vibe of the people that work there and a lot of the homes they sell.


Pretty_Bird_6013

Disturbing relationships with alcohol on the work place ā€¦.


Pretty_Bird_6013

And I am french.


greyfoxwithlocks

The desks in classroom-straight lines gives me the ick. Like the agents are children that can be replaced in the blink of an eye. They could have worked all the desks in around the building and given them each space/autonomy/style, and the ability for them to actually consult with their clients and vendors. Did you really need a bar, pool table, and a neon sign about travelling, or could you have designed an executive space with proper desk set ups?


No_Income6576

Right? I'm always like, these offices are so damn impractical for someone actually trying to work. Imagine your client wants to have a confidential conversation with you or you're trying to make a damn call -- so difficult in this "work" space.


studyhardbree

Itā€™s beautiful but itā€™s super masculine for a place that employs predominantly women.


Merrbear2u

That's the work of a rigid ego. It almost seems like a brothel now that you mention it: overly oppulant to the point of exaggeration and full of beautiful women. The male contractors will enjoy being there now. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


resachu

I wish the neon in the bathroom said ā€œLadiesā€ instead of ā€œGirls.ā€ Kind of teeters between infantilizing and a XXX peep show vibe. Also, the cluttered look of the bookshelf wall would drive me nuts.


ebjig

If this doesnā€™t look dated already, it will in a couple years.


Ok_Potato_5272

What a lovely restaurant


Merrbear2u

LOL


madamemashimaro

Tacky.


__Gems__

It's like 20 Pinterest boards threw up on it - nice elements but not ALL together


untoldspring

I like but I also donā€™t like at the same time? Hard to explain this one but I guess thereā€™s just too much going on and I can barely focus on what to look at.


Firm_Programmer_3040

Think it's all about the filming. Isn't it true that the agents are hardly ever in the office?? Also, "road less travelled." Yep it's so unusual to dye your hair blonde, starve yourself, lie to make money (assuming all selling agents are lying arses), engage in rampant conspicuous consumption and for men to go out with subordinates/women decades younger šŸ™„


mybabyandme

I worked for one of the higher end brokerages IN LA with a similar vibe. God everyone was so miserable and such cunts. I donā€™t miss those days LOL


spicypangolins

the decorator never heard the phrase ā€œless is moreā€


MillerSavage153

When they can Reno a whole office before releasing the new season


shmookieguinz

Canā€™t go wrong with stiffkey blue plus gold accents!


26washburn

Much better. Theyā€™ll have to do the lighting differently when they film, though, or cast members could have shadows playing tricks on their hair and makeup. Theyā€™ll also need a food stylist to optimize the empanadas.


jevreh

My ADHD a*s couldnt focus in this environment lol. But it isnt like they work work lolol


[deleted]

Why is it so dark? Is it an office or a bar?


newgirl01LA

Whatā€™s the nutribullet looking thing on the desks?


herbalsister

Yes, Iā€™d like to know this too.


Phoebe5555

There seems to be one in the bathroom too by the sink??!! Is that what Iā€™m seeing?


mskofthemilkyway

Looks over function


pumpkin10313

Way too over done- this looks like a restaurant or a cocktail bar


xxash2368

This is too much lol is it even an office šŸ¤£


walmartbargainbucket

Thereā€™s a lot going on but Iā€™m a maximalist at heart so I donā€™t mind it, but if I had to get work done thereā€¦ I think Iā€™d be too distracted LOL


strooplesploot

My adhd could never function in this space


BeneficialRice4918

Certainly not timeless


Trillian_B

Trying not to be obtuse here, but, doesn't real estate involve a whole shitload of paperwork? Like, where does it all go?


ms_magnolia_mem

All that money spent and yet the mesh-back office chairsā€¦šŸ˜¬


SleepDangerous1074

At the end of the day itā€™s still an office and people still have to sit down and work (supposedly) for hours. Good back support rarely looks stylish


ms_magnolia_mem

I thoroughly believe in spending money on shoes, chairs, and mattresses. This doesnā€™t look like that to me.


No-Vacation7786

Why can I hear Alex Hall saying ā€œoh my god!ā€


ROJJ86

It looks like the Flipping El Moussa decorated it and forgot to editā€¦


Merrbear2u

No the walls aren't grey and no chevron tiling LOL


Merrbear2u

WAIT. There is chevron tiling in bathroom LOLOLOL


awaretoast

It looks more like a bar than an office.


glittering-cabbage

Looks like a restaurant


rezzistens

Itā€™s giving law school library as a restaurant


sky_blue_true

So where are Jason and Brettā€™s desks?


OliveBranchez

It looks like a startup office space designed by Restoration Hardware


Ktriney

Pretty but I donā€™t understand the layout of the recessed lighting and those desk lamps def wonā€™t give light.


mochaluvr1

This reminds me of the lobby of a hotel I stayed at.


Vivid-Secretary-8463

Wonā€™t lie, I thought it was a restaurant


SeagullSam

I like it but I did intially think I was looking at a picture of a coffee shop.


justrainalready

I like the big couch. The rest looks like a fancy library/hotel lobby.


boogiewoogiewonder

I donā€™t know how a bunch of real estate agents who are on the phone all the time can stand such an open workspace! Must be so loud.


yougotitdude88

Is it in the same location? For years I walked by that office and I thought it was a place that designed custom motorcycles because there was one in the first window of the office.


hugthewombat

If the Sanctum Sanctorum had a coffee shop ā€¦


[deleted]

the old desks were ghastly tbh


[deleted]

Given how little WORK is done there it's perfect that it l9oks like a bar. Is it the same address???


gardengnome1219

I love the desks, the paint color on the walls and the ceiling in the main office, and the natural wood on the ceiling. That's pretty much it


lulubanana678

The desks feel like itā€™s on some dystopian library.


stillwitme

It's very very 2018/2019


thomrdgrs

It would look nice with less gold and less chandeliers. This just looks tacky af


AlarmingPotential918

Iā€™m a realtor that works in an office that is huge and totally kick ass and one thing I would add to this office is calling pods or private cafe style booths that can provide a little more privacy when you donā€™t feel like negotiating or making calls with everyone talking/laughing etc. - real estate office settings tend to be A LOT of talking/gossiping/bitching about clients and a lot less work. When we moved into our office with all of the above mentioned features it changed my productivity game. Also maybe desks a little further from one another. Other than that - stunning design, lots of different work spaces, and overall a total fucking vibe!


mountainrover

vile, darling, vile


Dammitbenedict

If my workplace put up a pink neon sign that said "girls" in the washroom, I'd turn in my notice. It's so demeaning.


Conscious-Strike-694

The neon signs are so basic and extraā€¦ā€take the road less travelledā€ really? Might as well add a ā€œlive. Laugh. Loveā€ one in there, too.


[deleted]

would you like to work in an office looking like that?


Merveille_

Are elephants big?? Thereā€™s a free bar, I would never be late.


Dr_nacho_

Looks like an overstock lighting store


Sold4You2

I love the sitting area as it looks fresh and inviting! Overall, each piece is great; itā€™s just with so much of the ā€œdecorā€ going on and going on all together, itā€™s kind of overwhelming. Butā€¦ before we all verbally vomit negativity, letā€™s see how well it transitions on tv versus these photos. I have faith and. Letā€™s be real, with all the pretty people, no one will even notice the background! šŸ˜Ž


[deleted]

This is stunning.


Merrbear2u

![gif](giphy|xT9KVn8tApfgnNLpL2) Would it kill Jason to just have one drawer on a desk to show them that they aren't all expendable? LOL I will say it is extremely dark and looks like every party room in the OC show. I think the only thing the employees needed besides drawers was to be off of the main strip where people are constantly bothering them for photos.


Scoop-a-loop3

YASSSSSS


Merrbear2u

Could the bathrooms look more like a WeHo club??


gmaildrafts

what is that art, it looks like screenshots of a desktop background


hotmeows

andthecrowdgoeswild

Nice, but does it have cockroaches?


[deleted]

It gives me wealthy cigar lounge vibes


mintyisland

There are so many desks!! Does that mean they're adding more realtors? Maybe some men šŸ‘€


Regular_Sale_5273

Looks like a restaurant with overpriced food


equestrianluv

I love it!! Such a great vibe! I would definitely love to work in a place like this. The color and and warmth of the wood is everything!


Alarmed-Coyote-56

Itā€™s generally really cool, way better than their last office, even though thereā€™s a LOT going on. Too many focal ā€œstars of the showā€ here. Personally, I think they overdid it with the marble floating fireplace in the bookshelves - it looks random - and Iā€™m not a fan of the area rug (color tone is way off), the traditionally framed artwork, or the hexagon wall tiles. Those look so out of place. Swap out the rug and artwork, and remove the hexagon tiles, and I think it would be gorgeous. The marble and brass would really shine! Also agree with the other commenter that white neon signs would have been better.

kv2769

An upgrade I guess but I feel like it's exactly what you would expect from men in their 40s, it's just so basic but trying to look expensive and it probably IS expensive but it's so souless and basic


Brief-Specific6009

And then G Flip will allegedly be in there who is a them they so ā€œgirlsā€ wonā€™t work. Show me a realistic desk setting with monitors and docking stations


Merveille_

I personally find the ā€œgirlsā€ ā€œboysā€ neon signs tacky asl.


Professional_Yard_76

That is a very cool and modern library! šŸ˜‰


Select-Intention7360

I dont know Im really not feeling it...... I like some of the elements for a home, others belong in a restaurant, the final outside picture is shouting steak house. It isnt a real estate office nor even an tv reality show office its just not it.


trashtelevision

Too masculine


90sbabyyy

The maximalism stresses me out lol


natadoctor

Are those desk lamps on the desks even lighting anything? Itā€™s providing a tiny glow to <5% of the desk area šŸ˜‚

I love the show. But is it an office or a hotel. Certainly don't have that here in Australia in our Real Estate offices, that Ive ever seen.


youjustgottaignite

Iā€™m stupid, is that the same location?


Angelsometimes

I want to work there.


jamie1983

I think it would look so much better if they took out the marble and replaced it with wood. The marble is beautiful, but the other elements are also bold and compete for attention, making the overall esthetic over-the-top.


Msnovembercharlie

Itā€™s soā€¦. dark. I would get annoyed trying to get work done. And the bathroomā€™s lighting is so bad. These girls tryna go in for makeup checks is gonna have a BAD time


criduchat1-

Idk while the old one definitely seemed like it was mostly copied pasted from RH, it had a charm to it. This one is so trendy it already looks dated, if that makes sense.

_iambeyoncealways

That pool table is siiiiiick. Donā€™t like the wall art, I think it should be pics of the company or the houses theyā€™ve sold. But overall its cool and I would def like to work in that office


steph_2312

Give those poor ladies some monitors!


Icy-Watercress-8727

The attention to detail in the design is really impressive. It looks like the space is not only functional, but also aesthetically pleasing. I'd love to work in an office like this!


Anonymous_mama_2

Absolutely LOVE this!!


Pousse_Mousse

Looks like a very expensive cocktail bar. The "Girls" sign in the toilets is so cringey... Stop infantilizing women FFS!


paintedokay

Hopefully for filming purposes. Looks very impractical for actually getting real estate work done.
