Home Inspiration: Neutral Work Space

First off, I’d like to announce the winner of the Where the Wild Things Are giveaway:

So it’s pretty evident that the hubs and I have pretty clear plans of what we have in mind with each room in our new home and our office is no different. This will mainly be the hubs’ haven so he got artistic control, but I absolutely loved his ideas and what he wanted to do with the space. Being a designer, he was looking for a neutral work space to not clutter his environment so that it wouldn’t hamper his creativity. I just ordered this amazing white wash floor from Lumber Liquidators to keep with the clean, sleek look of the room:

These are also some great inspiration pictures that have tickled our pickles:

Please go easy on me as this is my first attempt at a mood board!

Needless to say, it is screaming for a makeover. Bad. Want a peek? Here is the office on a very, very good day. Dark & dreary, right?
