DESIGNER ROOM RECREATE A SMALL HOME OFFICE!

Okay, we’re on a roll – after months of none of these…here is my third DESIGNER ROOM RECREATE in the last two weeks. Today, I bring to you the “how to” on another cute home office.

I like this space. It is not a fantasy room or overly “designed”…this looks like a room, a regular person might really have in their home…but just with a little more style.

The biggest design statement in this room is of course the chair…a Philippe Starck design for Kartell – the Mademoiselle Chair. I love it in this Chinese Blue upholstery…a fabric in light blue with big pink flowers all over (are they peonies?). With the chair in place, the room comes together with practical elements…all simple modern classics with clean lines.

Very cute. Hope this gives you some ideas.

    Nice job. There is always an option if you just look around, and often well priced. Good design can be interpreted on any budget. Great post!

    What a lovely room! That chair and rug add so much to it. It would be pretty and simple without those things, but with them – wow!

    Love your concept! So much of design feels out of reach—It really is inspiring what you can do within a budget!

    Hi!
    Wonderful blog!
    I have a question about the white Ikea Expedit shelving unit. I haven’t been able to locate the version that is staggered sizes of shelves/rectangels like what you show here. All of the options I see at US Ikea online for Expedit are the same size squares. I love the option you’ve shown. Do you have a source you could share?
    Thanks ever so much!
    D.
