What an awesome weekend we just had here in Perth! After a very gloomy winter, my wonderful city turned on two glorious days of beautiful sunshine tempered by light breezes. I think I got more Vitamin D into me over these last two days than I did for the whole of winter!
And to round off a great weekend, I have nearly finished getting my home office/study organised.
Back in the day when Swish Design was just me, I sub-letted a little single office space. When it came time to design the house we are living in now, I measured up my office at work and told the draftsman I wanted a study the same size in my new house. I am not even sure why, because I never had any real intentions to work from home.
But right now I am working from home every day so what a good move that has turned out to be! On the weekend hubby surprised me by agreeing that I could banish his (very un-used) desk and all the paraphernalia on it from the room. All of the sudden, there is all this beautiful SPACE to play with and I am so excited by the roominess and the wonderful natural light! I just need one quick visit to IKEA this afternoon to purchase the final pieces of the puzzle and hopefully by Friday I can give you all the grand tour 
In the mean time though, for your viewing pleasure today, check out some other people’s beautiful workspaces – courtesy of Pinterest!

I also quite like the simplicity and stylishness of this colour scheme, although I would HAVE to brighten it up with something! {img http://pinterest.com/pin/184681782/}
Love the idea of wallpaper as a feature and also LOVE the hanging containers! {img http://pinterest.com/pin/184681081/}

I have the wallpaper in the last photo on my loungeroom wall, however in a metallic cream colour. *love* I love the idea of wallpaper in a study as a feature too, very nice.
Wow Peggy!! That would look amazing!!
I have big BIG walls in my study so I think my dream of wallpapering one might have to remain just that … a dream. But it’s still nice to dream!
thanks for the inspirations..love them all especially that bottom with that divine wallpaper xx
