The One Room I Haven't Shown You Yet

I have almost no relationship to this room as it is Matthew's office, but that doesn't mean I don't care what it looks like. PLEASE.

When we bought the bungalow this room was a crazy room. Just totally bonkers. While we tamed the color and the ceiling fan, there is nothing to be done about its footprint, which makes space planning super challenging. Since I don't work in there I'm mostly happy to acknowledge its many functions (office, shipping center, yoga room, reading nook, supply storage) and let it be what it is. Sorry for the quality of these photos - I couldn't get myself to take more.

Blue, anyone?This gives me a headache.

What a cozy room! I would happily work there all day long. The rug looks amazing.

I had to laugh about the Star Wars figure... my husband is obsessed with Star Wars Legos and he's turning 30 in a couple weeks.
