Window coverings: Also white. Big, voluminous, cotton white, puddling to the floor, set off by classic black hardware.
Desk: Oh dear. I will spare the long story and cut to the chase by saying that I finally decided to take the old vanity from my adolescent bedroom and re-paint it….white. Yup. More white. Can’t get enough of it.
Overall color scheme: White, Black, Cream and other Soft Neutrals, Brazillian Cherry wood floors, Chrome metal accents. I haven’t decided on a true “color” yet for accenting but I expect that my artwork will dictate this eventually.
Artwork: And speaking of….I’m planning on highlighting one corner of the office with floor-to-ceiling art hung in a salon-style grouping. I’m intending the artwork to consist of a lot of bright, primary colors with white mattes and light colored or white frames. There will probably be a sprinkling of b/w photography in there.
Floor coverings: I am using two rugs. One small, 3 x 5 black and white zebra print rug(not tacky, I swear!) to delineate the seating/reading area and a larger 5 x 8 cream shag rug to delineate the desk and piano area. Currently this “shag” rug is a simple bound carpet remnant but I will be replacing it with the real deal in the near/distant/unknown future. Even though the room is small, there is still plenty of cherry wood floor peeking through.
