It seems like work-from-home is going to be more of a thing over the next 30+ years than it was over the past 30 years (leaving the past 3 years as an exception to both). Work from home also seems to often involve multiple people in the same household working independently (both having two adults working at different jobs, as well as kids working on educational stuff).
This seems like it should change how houses are designed. A separate "writer's cottage" or "workshop" has a lot of value, but I've always just had N+1 bedrooms even when I lived alone so I could dedicate a bedroom as an office (and in my current place, the biggest bedroom is the office; the small bedroom is my actual bedroom).
