"When we decided to design a room around this wall piece, I immediately knew I wanted to use it in a home office! It is such a zen piece, and I thought it would be beautiful in such a calm area of your home. Because I knew the wall art was a neutral piece, I wanted my furniture to have a little more character, and immediately paired it with this sea blue desk. I chose two flanking bookcases that had a fun and open style to them to keep the room from feeling too heavy. I then picked a rug that would bring in a lot of color, while still being tranquil enough for someone to get a lot of work done without being constantly distracted by a bright pattern. From there, I chose the wall color as Sherwin Williams SW9135 Whirlpool. Again I wanted the room to have an overall calming feel, so going with a blue/grey helped tone down my colorful rug. A neutral desk chair offset by two patterned accent chairs balances the room, and I pulled it all together by bringing out the brass from the wall panel in the lighting fixture, the accent chairs, and the side table."
