Innerspace - My home office

Since I often show you other people's interiors, I thought this time it was only fair that I'd open a little bit of my "innerspace" to you. I have recently reorganised the flat to make some space for a mini home office. My desk used to be in the bedroom and with the increase of work, I just couldn't deal with spending my days in the bedroom anymore. I also needed to get my work and personal space separated. It is quite a hard task when working from home and in limited space. Living in *very* central London means no extra cash, which means no spare room slash office for me... maybe one day. For now, I have this small space in our living room, and I have to say it does the job perfectly.

I separated the work area from the living room area by an open bookshelf which I use on one side to store all my reference books and magazines, and on the other side, I put some little decoration bits and pieces. The bookshelf is also convenient to hide my messy inspiration board from the rest of the family, as it really only inspires me in that state! I didn't want to be facing a wall because I need to be able to watch Mila like a hawk while working, and the position of my desk means I have a panoramic view of the flat.

After Fashion Week, the whole desk was covered in press materials, magazines and some items of clothing, but it is now clear and ready for action!

  5. I need that nook! I My desk is literally two feet away from my bed, as my room is a shoebox but when I get my own place, a business nook is the way to go.

  9. You seem to be a Moleskine addicted too :-) I love the way you've organised your office. I am trying to organise mine too in my new flat and it's been a hard task. However, I found lots of inspiration here!
