We don't always need to be comfortable to feel content. There are other ways to feel fulfilled than feeling comfortable. A motivating environment pushes us to reach our long term or intellectual goals, that a too comfortable room could hinder. For example, if you want to be able to draw well, your desk should be the most captivating thing in the room, with a good lighting - and to be the only option in the room. It's even better to make it a bit boring, that way there is more room for inner reflecting. Building a room like this is kinder to yourself in the long run, because it removes the struggle of resisting of just peeking what's on tv, and excessive, tiring hedonism.
But of course life is not all about work. It's as crucial to work to survive, than it is to enjoy Spring-time for example. When we know how to make a motivating environment, we can make a room that is completely the opposite - and make the effect feel even more powerful. The room that is comfortable, and would have no desk or a computer to stare at us is stress-relieving, because it removes the pressure to work.
There is already some controversy when it comes to schools, where we come to develop ourselves. When we pay money, some learning centers have taken it as a responsibility make studying fun for us, which is counterproductive to what we want from the experience on a deeper level. In the end, we pay for the results and not the fun, so the simpler the room, and less of the distracting fun things, the better.
The solution for this is to make clear distinctions in the between the spaces we want to work or play. If we do this, we can enjoy both more fully.
