Alex Cooper is sharing a behind-the-scenes look at her media empire by taking fans on a tour of Unwell’s refreshed headquarters!
PEOPLE got an exclusive first look at the newly-outfitted office space in Los Angeles, which was designed and furnished by West Elm with pieces from the furniture company’s latest launch: West Elm Office.
In the above video, the podcast host, 31, walks viewers through some of the design details featured in the massive headquarters of her media brand, which produces her hit show, Call Her Daddy.
“I know that you nosy little freaks have been waiting for an Unwell office tour,” Cooper jokes at the beginning of the video. “So, I'm going to show you where I work. Welcome to the Unwell offices.”

She begins the tour by bringing viewers inside what she calls the “grand foyer,” before quickly correcting herself: “I mean, this is reception.” As she moves on to the next space, she adds, “Did I mention that this entire office was furnished by West Elm? Thanks, babe.”
As the camera reveals more of the interior, a neutral color palette can be seen adorning the space, with pops of color peeking out in the background.
“We always have fresh flowers, but we also have fake plants. Balance,” Cooper continues, before showing off the decorative sand surrounding one plant. “This was a huge selling point on this office space for me,” she notes.

After briefly making her way through the “podcast wing” with a wall of some of Unwell Network’s show posters, she unveils a little “Unwell secret” located behind reception: “Big Al’s Bar.”
“Every hour is happy hour,” she says of the Western-inspired space as she sits on top of the bar. At the center, a large yellow and orange neon sign that reads "Big Al's" is on display, while the cowboy boot and cactus in the corner add to the theme.

Continuing the tour, she shows off a unique vending machine filled with bottles from her brand's Unwell Hydration line. “Want a beverage? Sucks you don’t work here,” she quips as she hugs the machine.
Cooper then brings viewers into perhaps the most important section of the entire office: the recording room.

“This is really where the magic happens,” she says while sitting in a green lounge chair. “This is where people record — Disgraceful, Extra Dirty, Boyfriend Material, Cheers — all the podcasts record here if they’re in Los Angeles.”

After heading upstairs, she offers a look inside some of the private offices, including her husband Matt Kaplan's. The couple wed in April 2024 and co-founded Unwell together in June 2023.
“This is where all the heads of the company work. And this is my husband’s office,” she says before playfully shoving her hand in front of the camera. “You’re not allowed in here. Just kidding.”
She then makes her way outside to the balcony area where she had a special addition installed.
“Matt loves to golf, so I got him a little putting green," she says as she goes to hit the golf ball and misses each try. "Okay, we're done," she quips.

She wraps up the tour in her own office, which features floor-to-ceiling windows, wood beamed ceilings, and a number of accent plants.
"This is where I brainstorm. I really love the natural light in this office," she adds. As she turns around to face the camera, she concludes, “Farewell, thanks West Elm! Get out.”

According to West Elm, the entire office space is designed with “contrast” in mind, as the company’s Hughes Collection offers sleek furniture pieces that pair well with some of the more “unexpected,” bolder details.
“Warm woods and earthy textures keep the room grounded, while bold color and art add energy,” the furniture company adds of the space on their website.
West Elm Office, which officially launched on Tuesday, Jan. 27, offers six collections that focus on “design, quality, and customizable modularity,” with pieces starting at $199.
