Office Makeover

Posted on 3 February 2010 in Interior Design | 5 comments

Some time ago, my desk moved upstairs to a new office. The office used to be a bedroom and the wall colour is a shade of less-than-inspiring brown. I have been finding it very hard to keep my desk clean, focus, and get in the zone.

As such I’m going to give it a makeover with a lick of paint, some wall shelves, a white painted pine desk and a few indoor plants. Ikea, here I come!

I’ve been dying to use a salmon pink and apple colour scheme ever since I saw it on Cougartown.

    Love it. Look forward to seeing photos on “where we do what we do”.

    Liking the fact that you found inspiration from a TV show. Will have to try that, as I can now decorate my home office now the major work has finished on the roof. In fact, I can decorate the whole of the upstairs. Might help to get my inspiration for websites back ;)

    Well, I thought maybe the apple green walls will look better on your new office. It’s got more of the office feel in it. And in making your office, it must look simple, clean, and yet sophisticated. Good luck to your makeover!
