Work Spaces + The Details

Design is really about the details, so I continually focus on them. I am always rotating objects in my home... a new accessory here, a freshly painted piece there.. Rearranging your home keeps things updated but also saves money. I have a photo shoot at my home this week and the photographer asked me if she could snap a few photos of my office!! I'll share my revamped inspiration board and any other "eye candy" when I receive the proofs.

Yowza..

I am loving everything about this home office! The finishes, furnishings, the antique rug, the fabulous wing chair with an element of surprise on the back side, the glamourous gold table, the light fixture, the fabulous caramel leather chairs, the lucite desk, the shelves..okay you get the point. LOVE! Happy Tuesday!

working away...

Been busy working with clients this week, I definitely want to organize my desk with a couple of fun trays! I think I have settled on the spotted and gold version above available through Furbish Studio. Love it and love LuLu Powers creative desk space - I adore her pagoda lamps with the pink shades, photographs and grasscloth ceiling!

Sitting Pretty

I'm not one for "sets", so I never combine a matching desk and chair! When you mix opposites the results are more interesting..that was actually one of Jenna Lyon's words of wisdom with clothing! {ex. shiny and matte, tweed with metal etc.}! but you already knew that right? ;)
I also love {and employ} the idea of using a table as a desk, as long as the height is correct {29-30"} the options are endless!

These actually look similar, but it works..

A stool is an option for "short time" seating, I wouldn't want to work at a stool..

Here is a shot of my desk and chair {I nabbed the chair at a flea market for $10 - not bad right?} I simply had a cushion made for it! My desk is actually a dining table from West Elm, I like a large work surface..
