Workers in the creative industry are among those who conduct a lot of technology-based business from home. One reason is that the home is the most easily accessible place to support the growth of the creative industry business. Home-based businesses that are still in the early stages often make many spatial adjustments in their homes, so this study aims to outline how spatial adaptation takes place within the limitations of living spaces. In this qualitative study, data on spatial adaptation were obtained through observations of residential homes and interviews with 11 informants who work in creative industry. Spatial changes are classified based on three space settings: fixed, semi-fixed, and non-fixed elements. The study found that a showroom is an important component for the homes of creative workers as an effort to meet existential needs where the home owner can show the products or ongoing creative process to potential clients. Flexibility of space also emerges as a strong theme, aligning with the dynamic work rhythms of the creative worker.
