Often working from home is challenging, you have to be motivated, focused, and organized. Having a well designed office is a must to give you that boost of energy you need to be productive, motivated, and up lifted.
Here are some points to consider:
Get your office organized! There is nothing more distracting than a cluttered office that will cause delay and aggravation. ( see link below for an organizer)
Select your color schemes carefully. Choose colors that you like, colors that give you happiness and put you in a good mood. The type of work you do can have an influence on what colors to choose. If you need to be energized pick reds, yellows, tangerines, and colors that have less gray in them, more clear rather than subdued. If your line of work require that you stay calm, then blues, greens, and soft neutrals would be good choices to consider for a calming serene environment.
Have a theme; select your furnishing and accessories accordingly.
Vary your texture for comfort and interest.
Do not forget the ergonomics; treat your spine and joint with TLC. After all safety, comfort, efficiency, and productivity is our goal.

What should I do with a window seat in a girls bed room?
Here is an idea for you!
This client ( Burr Ridge, Illinois) wanted to create an extra ordinary window treatment for her seven year old daughter. After listening to her and describing her little girls personality, what she likes, the way she plays and so on, this is what we came up with: Create a stage like for her so she can pretend, and play make belief with her friends, how exciting!
Two side panels, lifted to the sides will give that stage feel along the canopy valance. Nice soft cushions, and pillows will add comfort and coziness.
The results: A happy 7 year old, that keeps busy, and enjoys play with her friends. Check out the video below.

This Naperville, Dupage county, living room got a face lift! The client request was to change the room from a very traditional, formal living room, to a transitional, not too formal, with style, elegance and a room that is easy to use for every day living!
We started with selecting the fabrics, the draperies and furniture style, and picked a paint color. A warm yellow paint replaced the out dated faux finish of the walls, the ceiling got a soft linen white that went well with the walls color,the drapery transitional paisley print, the linen material, the colors, all has contributed to the beauty and serenity of the room.
The number one factor that added to what the client was after,was the drapery design. Two layers of fabric, the paisley layer on top of a second layer of linen sheers, gave the draperies that feel of a relaxed look. The pleats also had an impact on the overall look. Part of the pleats in the linen fabric was speaking through from under the main body fabric. The cluster of buttons in a rich,warm red, place on the sheers, has truly given the drapes, feel of whimsy!
The drapery hardware from the RM coco company, the deco collection, so beautiful and affordable it was the perfect addition.
