Rolling. This is the office studio tour. The final studio tour 2026. And for this, it's a complete change. I gutted the entire office, everything it's ever been, past, present, to make room for the future. The goal with this was zero friction. I want to come in and make videos. I want it to look great. have style, personality, a place for meetings, place to hang, places to film, places for a podcast. All the details, all the aesthetics that make me need to be present. If I'm not physically in this space, I want someone to be able to come in here and know this is Peter McKinnon's office. And I feel like that is what we accomplished. One of the things you may have noticed straight out of the gate with the last few videos over the last several weeks is the angle changes quite a bit. Because one of the main goals I had with this studio makeover is I wanted to be able to shoot from so many different angles. One desk, one background, everything always the same. I wanted to be able to switch from here to here, maybe to here. This works. Literally everything looks great. I actually really like this one. Do you want to mix it up? Open the door. Switch sides. Now I've got even more depth. This angle, this is working for me right here. I like this. And while I have you here, that photo of Kefir Southerntherland, that was the one of the very first photos I ever put in my very first town home that I bought. It was my first piece of art. It was the catalyst for everything that made me want to shoot his portrait eventually. I thought it was a great reminder that even if your dreams seem crazy and unrealistic and wild and far-fetched, that they can be achieved. And that right there, that's living proof. I can shoot talking head angles. I can set up my vlog camera, the desk itself, the living space, the podcast set in a proper storage room to actually keep the gear. Uh, this is new. Why not? It's kind of rad. I could probably use like a pop filter for it. Those peas are a little obnoxious. I'm sorry. But this episode's going to be split into several sections. I want to show you the space. I want to talk about the details. I want to reminisce on all the old versions of this space was cuz honestly, when you see them all put together, you will be mind blown that it was this many things in that amount of time. In fact, I'd love to bring a designer on to actually roast those setups. The very designer that made this space, my friend Patty. I want to show you some photos that I compiled on my phone of my past spaces and I'd love for you to like either rate them, roast them, or just give me your honest thoughts. — Um because they're different. — Okay. — And I know you've seen some of them. I'm going to show you my very first YouTube. — Okay. — Setup background space. That's the uh — Oh, okay. — Yeah, that was like day one. — Day one. Okay. — What do you think? Um, — just starting — just starting out spare bedroom. — Yep. — Right. — Yep. I don't know what to say. — Oh, it's that bad. Hey, — no, it's just that like I'm just trying to envision like where were the cameras set up? Like how did you have basically where that photo was taken was is where like the camera would set up and just sit on the couch or I'd sit on a desk just in front of all of this and that would be like my backdrop. — Uhhuh. — What did I What's wrong with this? If this was someone if someone was looking at — it just looks like somebody's apartment or somebody's Yeah. — If that was an apartment, would it be styled okay or — like it just you know there's not a lot of personality there. I don't know who is actually working there. I would actually I would never picture you working in that space. — Well, I've changed over time as you can see. — You've evolved. — Yes. — You're not bad. I thought for sure you'd open the box and like Raiders of the Lost Arc would come out, you know? Remember that movie Indiana Jones? Yeah. Okay. I was going to say, please someone know that reference. I'm not that old. Why don't you just like fill every space? — Every space. Every circ. — Just all of it. — How close did you have that to my wrinkle? — It's a wide angle. Thank you. Jesus. You're just down here reading. — I know. I'm very interested in everything in here. — It looks so full and good that it could like almost be like an AI background. like — like it almost just looks like one of those weird like Zoom backgrounds, you ### [5:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWz6zrvT1k4&t=300s) Segment 2 (05:00 - 10:00) know? You're like, I choose the library today. People are going to ask me like, "Are you in a library or is that real? " — I love this rug. I just wish it was bigger. — Didn't you already buy another one? — We did. — Yeah. — Let's going back. Maybe we could do it when we come back to style. Do you have another piece of favorite artwork that you would like to use — where — for here — instead of the mirror? — No. Layer on layer. — What do you mean? I want to layer a photo — on the mirror. — You want to block the mirror? — No, I want to layer another image on top of the mirror. — So, partially block the mirror. Yes. Okay, got it. Yeah. — You see, after a while changing things over and over and over, it lost its identity and it became like a storage room that I just filmed videos in. The vibe had left the chat. And I'm big on needing a space to provide me creative support. I want to feel inspired when I'm in my space. I've always been that way. I've seen it in the comments of these videos. You've said it yourself. The kids that, and I'm one of them, change their rooms around every day when they got home from school. I wouldn't just clean my room. I'd rearrange everything, all the furniture, and then it felt fresh and it felt like a new start. Now, admittedly, as I got older and an and became an adult, have I did I become an adult? I that's actually to be determined. I've realized that I use that same principle to distract myself from getting things done that need to be getting done. Instead of making videos, instead of getting on calls, instead of making plans, working, I'll change my office around. Then once I'm in that, I feel like I have to finish it before I can get started so that I can be productive and make videos. But then in lies the cycle over and over. So this year, I thought, you know what? I'm going to hire a professional to actually design this studio so it becomes something that I love and never change again. Now, I guess the famous words are never say never, but I can tell you right now, I'm feeling pretty good. — So, you've had a couple of spaces that are white. — Do you typically gravitate more to or did you? Yeah, — cuz I don't think you do anymore. Like I think you love now, if I could say — the patina of things and — very much so edge, right? Definitely. Yeah. — Yeah. No, I think the white I think photographers in general maybe gravitate towards that. It's fresh. It's like a feels like a studio, right? — Art kind of pops off the walls, I guess, depending on what you have up there. — Um, it's good for lighting. It's good for filming and shooting. Light bounces off the walls and fills a room. — So, we're coming at it from two different angles. You're obviously photography and I'm looking at it as, you know, like who lives here and what's the personality of the space. So, — that's interesting though to me. Yeah. — How both we look at it based on what our like trades are. — Exactly. — I look at it in like terrible light. You're like, who lives there? This was when we first moved in here and I came down and I was like, "All right, that's that's — Now we're starting to see more of your personality here. I like that way better than the previous space. " Again, I think you have so many — like really cool things that all have a story behind them. So, yeah. I would say that's probably maybe a seven out of 10, eight out of 10. Like maybe even a bit more. Like that's totally rock and roll. I had like a whole neon corner, pinball machines, but like it took me 30 minutes to turn all the lights on every day. — It was cool for a few months and then I came in one day and was like, get it. Get rid of it. I too much I hate it all. And I feel like that's what happens to me with a space. I live in it for a while. The novelty wears off. Like this was really exciting and really fun at the start, — right? — And then one day you just come in and it's over. You're like, get this crap out of here. Like why am I wasting like what am I doing back there? And thank you to Squarespace for sponsoring this video. Yes, you've heard it a million times. You know it by now. You could do it as well as I could do it at this point. But for the people in the back, just in case, award-winning templates. — Templates. Okay. Great customer service. This these are really hard to write on. Okay. Allin-one platform. Open the page and it it's done. AI blueprint. Fully customizable pages. That's how you go deeper. Okay. Online stores. Okay. Podcasts, protected client areas, stories. You just do a photo shoot. You want to upload all the work that you just did so your clients can log in and review and send it to their friends. Easy. Another win right there. Bam. Make a portfolio. Photos and videos. I'm a big believer in that you need more than Instagram for a place to show your work. That's not going to stay. It's better. It takes absolutely no time to set it up. You could be running by the end of the day. You could be running before I get these stickers off my face.

And thank you again to Squarespace for sponsoring this ### [10:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWz6zrvT1k4&t=600s) Segment 3 (10:00 - 15:00) episode. Go on now. I did my part. There's like a bar. I don't even drink. There's like there's pinball machines and like you turn that on, you can't work. Everyone could hear it. It was fun for the kids — and fun and kind of unique and like you said, a novelty. I think — how do you like not cross that line where it just becomes disgusting and you're like I get it away. Get everything off me. Did I just did I add too much or is it just my personality? — No, I mean I don't think I think it's very layered and intentional. I think you've created a very cool space which I think served you at the time. I think part of the beauty of design is being able to, you know, explore other ideas and design concepts and things like that over time. I think blowing it up and starting all over, maybe I don't want to do that anymore. M — um but I fully expect that this that even your current space today is going to evolve over time because we change right we don't stay the same and as a creative like I love change we mature right like our tastes also mature over time and I think we become more aware of who we are and what brings us joy comfort and peace. — What do you think of that one that was in here? Yeah. I mean, I I — What do you think of that? — Move on. I like the previous space way more. I think this is again, you maybe just were bored one day and thought, "Okay, I'm going to create this really cool space under this loft. " — You know what I thought? I thought people never utilize vertical space, — right? — It's like there's all of this room in here that no one's using. It's off the heels of coming back from New York and my friends have to have lofts there because they don't have big spaces. So, it's out of necessity for them. But for me, I was just inspired and I thought that's cool. Like, I could probably make that work in here. — I think too like the challenge is working in a small space and making it feel bigger. And like I think we definitely did that here. But a lot of that was, you know, raising everything to the ceilings, right? You know, kind of like — that's not where I would have gone. — Yeah. — I don't intuitively would have not thought that. Like that's what one of you remember my friend Alex is always like how does it look bigger in here when there's like three times the amount of stuff. — It's definitely occupying that space up closer to the ceiling that just makes it feel more grand. And I think that's a mistake a lot of people do make too though is they you know they stay at surface level or you know halfway up the wall and kind of just plaster all their furniture around the perimeter. I do really love this one. — Yeah. Is it because it has like a leopard print carpet? Is that why maybe you like leopard print pillows and clothing and — Yeah. coats and Yeah. No, I feel like this is not too far off of what you have today. — It's closer. — It's just a little bit more, like you said, more refined now. — It was a little more messy in that way. — Yeah. But definitely I can see your personality in that. And that's what I love. Like I want to be able to walk into the space like especially like in someone's home too. Like I don't want it to feel like Patty Wilson Design it's their space cuz it's not. It has to be the people that live there. It's got to be about them and their personality. And I can see you in that. — I wanted the space to be reflective of who I am today. I wanted the art on the wall to be inspiring. I wanted it to be the projects that have brought me the most joy. People on the wall In the past, I kind of just put up any type of art or photo that fit the space. If it physically measured and fit, it's on the wall. I've always been huge on putting art on the walls. Ask anybody that knows me. But this particular time, I wanted to be a bit more thoughtful. I wanted to pick pieces that I was proud of. Pieces that someone could come in and spend 5, 10 minutes looking at the wall. We could talk about them, talk about the stories behind them. After all, that is what photography is all about. That wall is full of stories. I think it's a perfect place to start when people come to visit. They always stop and look at the wall. They pick whatever photo speaks to them the most. and then I get to tell the story about that photo because that is inherently what we do and what we create. So, as a photographer, I love being able to show off my work and it's a great representation of my successes both personally and professionally. And then I get to tell stories about them and map them out on the wall and it's kind of like a little road map of where I've been, what I've done, and where I'm going. I'll show you my favorite. I actually don't know if I could show you my favorite, honestly. I think I've done a good job at compiling all of my favorites to be the wall. So, I feel bad when I choose one over the other. The standing ovation shot that Jared Poland actually took of me is a very special photo. It's the first standing ovation I ever got. I didn't even see him or have any idea that he was behind me. And then he had that printed for me as a gift for my last studio. So, that's at my house now, but I kept it on the wall because I it just it deserves a place here and it was a special moment. and the gift of photography, all those things that we've talked about. So, it's forever going to have a place in the studio. — The graffiti hallway was also your idea. ### [15:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWz6zrvT1k4&t=900s) Segment 4 (15:00 - 19:00) — Yes. We forgot about that. — We were just going to completely again white walls. Remember I was like what's your idea for this? And I was like, I think like severance, maybe just white everything. Get rid of like the black door, the handle, just like nothing in here. You walk in and it's just sterile. And I remember you were like, "Are you open to suggestions? " And I was like, "Yeah. " You were like, "Okay, don't do that. Give me That was a hard no. That was like uh no. — This is our back hallway. Pretty boring. Whitewashed. Nothing going on. Patty thought, why don't you guys slam that entire hallway with graffiti. And that's where Matias comes in. Layers upon layers of paint. Spray, wash it back. Base coat on top of base coat. One of my favorite things about art is being able to watch someone that excels in their craft in an industry that I have nothing to do with who does their thing, their craft very, very well at a high level. That gives me so much inspiration. So, not only does the hallway look sick, but being able to watch an artist like Matias do what he does at the very highest level was an absolute pleasure. Not only that, but it took our boring white hallway to the absolute top of the mountain. I can say now it's not so boring. I did not expect you to come back with slam it with graffiti, floor to ceiling, neon signs, street art. — And what did you say? You just thought that was a good representation of like Andrew. — Yeah. Cuz if you don't know, there's a tattoo artist, Andrew, that works next door. So, it kind of uh makes sense for both of us. That was still just such a And that's the first impression everyone gets when the back door opens. are like, "What the heck is back there, dude? Is there a rave going on or like a John Wick film being shot? " I would just never expect that idea come from you, which I think is why I love it even more. — You'd expect it to come from me. — Yes. — You know, another major addition was this table. I have never had a table in any office ever. The closest thing to a table was the little bar top that I had at my old studio where we filmed a lot of videos because it was a working surface. It was useful, but I've never had a table like this where I can sit down, I can eat, I can chat with friends, can have meetings, and as you've seen, HOST A PODCAST. Kirk Lapitin is back. Yeah. How'd you set this up? This is crazy. It's just all built in, dude. A spot where I can actually sit across from somebody and film a video. I've never had that. In the old spaces, I used to film sideways. And that's tough. When you're trying to have a conversation with someone and the camera's directly in front of you and you're looking to the side, you don't know when to keep looking back to the camera or when you're looking at your guest, you guys are way too close to each other. It's very uncomfortable. So, across, this is the first time I've been able to do that and it's phenomenal. Not to mention just having a spot where I can bring things in and set them down on the table. That is huge. A proper desk to house all the things that I need to be creative. You've seen that. I made a video a few weeks ago. My desk cure 2026. I saw some funny comments. That's not a functional work. You just did that for aesthetics. Yeah, obviously I did it for aesthetics. I do everything for aesthetics. It's part of my art. And as far as it being functional, I make all my videos at this desk. Who says it's not functional? If Pete's Pirate Life could be a studio, this would be it. My style has always been contrasty. It has always been darker. filled with texture, unique things, art, a little bit of grit, rock and roll, New York loft vibe, leather, brick, different wood, brass lights, Edison bulbs, exposed beams, wires, cables. All this stuff encompassed is me. And I feel like my studio over time has been versions of other things that have inspired me throughout the years, but never directly a representation or mirror of this guy until now. So this is the evolution of the Peter McKinnon HQ the studio 2026. I hope you like it. I love it and I don't see myself changing this anytime soon. --- *Источник: https://ekstraktznaniy.ru/video/49101*
