Remember That Masculine Office?

When I mentioned last week that I was working on a masculine office space for someone near and dear to me, a couple of you guessed who the space is for.  My husband recently took a new job allowing him to work from home and we are over the moon excited to have him here!  He filled out one of my client questionnaires because I really do want this to be his space.

In the questionnaire, he stated that he would like for his office to be warm and cozy and to include a gallery wall with family photos.

We sampled a couple of grays that we already had on hand and also tried Sherwin Williams Intellectual Gray.  Intellectual Gray won hands down over the others.

We are also in the early stages of creating a collected gallery wall.  We might replace a few of the images with more current ones and add many more to fill in the wall.  So be prepared to this change a few times.

I have always loved this image from Martha Stewart and will most likely re-work the symmetrical look that we have now with something more like this.

If you are new to my blog, the pillows came from my wonderful sponsor, Fabulous But Frugal where you will find designer pillows for less.  They even take custom orders so be sure to add them to your pillow resource list.

Monday, I ordered this pouf from Joss & Main for my office. It arrived Wednesday - talk about fast - and I am just trying it out here in Rick's office.  Even though I like the quirky vibe it adds to the Queen Ann loveseat, I think I will have to claim this one for myself!

Have a great weekend and as always, thank you for taking the time to stop by Cottage and Vine!
