A modern Madrid loft with a mix of vintage furnishings

I love seeing furnishings I haven't seen before, like this fantastic rocking chair.

I like the use of mutiple coffee tables, even though they take up more space, they make the area feel more spacious because you have more surface to spread your items out on.

The light in this space is perfect

The flotaki rug gives instant glamour to this sitting area

Do you like the mix of vinatage furnishings in a modern loft?

O M G - Best house tour ever!

I don't know how to make your Monday better, because if this house tour doesn't leave you high off the beauty I don't know what will. It is simply gorgeous.

The house is registered for film and photo shoots - so no one actually lives here. Still, it's beautifully done. Seriously, I would consider giving my left hand for this house. And I'm left handed.

ps - you can see a larger view by clicking on the image

Well ? What do you think?

Tidy and organized: Home offices and workspaces to motivate you

I'm working in a little impromptu "office" while I'm here in Spain, which consists of a small desk - about 3ft wide by 1.5ft deep, and two small drawers. The wall is sort of a popcorn texture and painted a pinkish tan. It's not really inspiring. But, it is temporary - and there is an ancient cathedral to wonder at through my window. Until I have the space and means to create the office of my dreams, it sure is fun to collect inspiration...

*swoon* white, mid-century modern, a whole bookcase of organization potential! This space has so many of my favorite elements!

The real home office. I love this desk. It's great for anyone who needs a lot of surface area - and the drawers are small - which is great for organizing pencils, brushes, etc.

You can create a beautiful office space in an open floor plan living situation or in the corner of another room. This one is in one end of a living room. The tiled floor creates a visual barrier, separating the office into a separate space. And look at the cubbies and matching baskets!

This is a really cute pinboard for a gardener, but you can take the same ideas - file folder hanger, little baskets - and clips for organizing your projects...

Two file cabinets and a large plank make a substantial desk - an easy DIY that doesn't cost a lot.

I love little nook offices. I work from home full time so it wouldn't really work for me, but it's a great solution for home offices where you just need to deal with correspondences, bills, etc.

Isn't this workspace soooo pretty and cute? The charming lamp, the little wood radio, the artsy trash bin...and the wallpaper is to die for. (the wallpaper is called Harlequin Passion and from wallpapersonline.com.au)

Do you have a home office? Is it a dedicated room? Shared with another room? In a nook or closet, etc.?

A super chic and mod mix in a North Copenhagen home

This home has a meditative quality that I am instantly drawn to, however, I don't know if I could keep it so spare. I think I'd ultimately end up adding some elements to bring in some coziness.

How about you? Could you/do you live in a space this minimal?

oooh...a baby grand

love the floors in this place...
