There is nothing I love more than designing a new space. My most recent project was an update for our home office and I am thrilled to be able to share it with you today! (I hope you don’t mind pressing pause on all things Christmas for just a few moments).
This project was undoubtably a labor of love. It was the first room I have ever designed just for me. Naturally, I wanted it to reflect my personal style and taste. I also wanted it to be comfortable and a place where I could stay focused on my work.
Before getting started, I created a design and planned it out. I find planning to be a crucial step in the design process. If you’d like, you can find my plans for this space here. There is a before picture in the post as well.
Without further ado…… welcome to my home office update reveal!
The Furnishings
A beautiful desk by Lo Home is the focal point and, of course, the work station in my new office. This bold white desk stands out and it draws your eyes into the space. The floral hardware in brass creates a nice contrast. The hardware is adorned with white tassels.
Another new piece, this versatile storage cabinet is so pretty and functional. It offers loads of storage and works perfectly in this glam office design. The brass ring hardware adds warmth and personality. Don’t you just love it?
Both pieces are Lo Home by Lauren Haskel Designs exclusives and were designed by Lauren Haskell. Lauren’s designs are sophisticated, timeless, and simply exquisite. In addition to being a talented designer, Lauren is the sweetest person and she provides excellent customer service. I absolutely love everything she creates. Her designs are collectables and I know you will love everything available through her online store!
Back to the pieces I selected……. the finish on both of them is satin pure white. Lo Home furnishings can be customized with a finish in any Sherwin-Williams paint color. They can even be ordered in a lacquer finish or with a custom stained finish.
The Rug
As soon as I saw this cheerful pink rug, I knew it would look fabulous in my home office. Even more beautiful in person, it adds so much to the space.
The Draperies
Natural light was a must on my list for my home office update. This space is extraordinarily bright, which I love. For beauty and privacy though, I added four Spiffy Spools custom window panels . The panels are well-priced and look great.
The Art
I selected three chinoiserie panels with neutral backgrounds and soft pastel designs. Another exclusive by Lo Home (in collaboration with Tashi Tsering). So gorgeous! They are exactly what my wall needed.
The Accessories
For accessories, I chose gorgeous ginger jars and vases by Lo Home. They coordinate perfectly with each other and with the space. Styling them has been so much fun! They honestly look AMAZING in every single room in my home, but they look especially wonderful in my home office and I adore them on my new cabinet so very much!
Each ginger jar is custom made, hand-poured, hand-painted by a Lo Home artist. The quality is very high and the designs are incredibly beautiful. (Lo Home’s holiday pieces will take your breath away)
The most luxurious pillow in rose-colored velvet adds such a pretty layer to my chair. The actual color is called “cherry blossom”, but this stunning greek key pillow also comes in a soft blue called “hydrangea” which is equally gorgeous.

Just one last peek back into the space through the french doors. I think this view may be my favorite. And thank you so much for visiting! For more newly updated spaces, decorating tips, and much more, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter!!
This is absolutely the most gorgeous, feminine office I have seen. Your taste is impeccable as always. and you’ve given me some excellent ideas for refreshing my own space. I do have three questions: (1) what color are the walls, (2) where did the lamps on the chest come from, and (3) are the drawers on the desk turned out away from the chair for a reason? (Maybe just for display purpose for the blog?) Thank you so much for sharing your exquisite office space with us. You are truly gifted!
Hello Sally, Thank you so much! Your kind words are very much appreciated! In answer to your questions, the wall color is Chantilly Lace by Benjamin Moore. I just added links to the lamps and a few other items in my post above. Last, I turned the desk outward in order to show the beautiful hardware. We turned it the proper way just after all of the pictures were taken. My apologies for any confusion that it may have caused! I hope you have a wonderful day!
I agree with the previous comment. This office is absolutely the most beautiful one I have seen in years. I love your blog and I love your taste in decorating. Well done. But I have a practical question: where is your printer? And where do you store supplies? Are those writing tools in the side cabinet? I’m a freelance writer and I have an organized office, but I use files and pens and books that cannot be color-coordinated. I’m looking for ways to have a beautiful and functional office. Maybe I need a wardrobe — like a media cabinet — to use in my office. Any suggestions? Oh, and I so love seeing your dogs in previous posts. How sweet to include furry friends in your home.
Hi Leslie, Thank you so much for stopping by and for your kind words! I love that you are a writer! In this space, the cabinet on the left is filled with all of my supplies. It has a large amount of space, so it even holds much of my camera equipment. We used to have a wardrobe in the space, which also worked well. I rarely use a printer in my line of work, so I don’t keep one in this space, however, the space on the right of the cabinet fits a small printer stand if I were to add one. I hope this helps! Happy holidays!
This room is absolutely gorgeous. I expected nothing less.
Kimberly, Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so grateful to you for being so sweet! xoxo
Your office is beautiful, but just doesn’t seem practical. Did you run electric to the center to be able to charge your laptop? And I just don’t understand why the desk is turned around. Also, do you have a printer? If so where is that kept?
Hi Stephanie, I have an outlet behind the desk chairs, so it is convenient to charge my computer, phone, and camera as needed. I rarely use a printer, but we do have one in a cabinet in another part of our home. The desk was simply turned around just for the photos so that the details would be visible. Thank you so much for stopping by! Happy holidays!
