From the warm wood tones to the whimsical Hockney print, this office space brings the kind of energy we all need in our work from home set up.

Tell us a little about the vision for the space?

My clients are super fun, and also super successful people.  Husband is a veteran and now helicopter pilot, and wife is a very successful boss lady in PR (she's basically Olivia Pope).  This is the wife's at-home office space, and I wanted to bring the boss lady vibe into this space.  Kinda like Texas meets the feminine version of mad-men, if that makes sense? Ha!

What drew you to our Hockney Moss curtains?

My client loves color and pattern, and her favorite color is green (so is mine- I always say Green is God's neutral)... the kitchen in this house is green, as are the dining chairs, so I wanted to bring that same mossy green color into the office space.  I also knew I wanted a fun pattern to bring a little levity to the design.  The big velvet chairs, and the burl desk make the room feel super luxe, so we needed something a little fun and quirky to lighten the vibe.

What tips do you have for creating a design-worthy home office?

There are a few things that I put in every home office I design:

1) A nice big desk with legs (the legs are key - it makes the space feel less heavy)

2) A place to stash your papers and office clutter out of sight (cabinets, a credenza, etc.)

3) A decorative light fixture to center the space and make it feel a bit more formal (if you're not going into an office, might as well make your dedicated home workspace feel fancy) and

4) A select few fun design elements that you love and that speak to you (curtains, art, wallpaper, rug, etc.) to help elevate your mood and ease work stress.  

5) I am a person who's mental space matches her physical space - so if my physical space is a mess and unorganized, then my mind is too.  So my final piece of advice for designing a workspace is make sure it stays clean and tidy to help you stay focused.
