yeah i don't know why she would need an office given she has a whole room/ studio dedicated to that, maybe a warehouse / storage unit for all the stock for the subscription boxes? I highly doubt she'll be getting her hands dirty doing some real work actually putting them together so maybe a space for that/others to do it but at the same time like... there cant be that many/ that much of a demand for them so cant think it would be an assembly space. Had they not just made the garage a gym she probably would've done it out of that which would i imagine have made much more financial sense by getting a gym membership rather than renting a studio.
Also I feel like the boxes have a good chance of flopping, she's thought 'oh these do well in America, I can do that', but it seems like she hasn't factored in that most of her viewership is probably American, and of that viewership only a small % will get sub boxes, and of that number an even smaller amount will be willing to pay for shipping from the UK with import fees etc. I cant imagine enough people in the UK will make it financially viable/ worth her time. And I doubt she'll be able to handle the negative reviews/comments when some of the items are naff or there are issues with shipping (particularly international) etc. Fair play for giving it a go but feels like theres alot she hasn't considered ( I say fair play, its just her stealing someone else's idea again isn't it ?).
RE: it being a shop, I cant see that because what demand is there for that kind of thing in her location? The one in Edinburgh? Ideal, lots of HP pilgrims because of JK and all the related locations inc the inspiration for diagon alley. The one in York? lots of witchy history etc

oh I hope she does a new AMA before releasing the news of the boxes so we can ask 'how long till 'magical curiosities' comes out lol, she'll have no idea how we know probably
