10 Things I Love at Work (and Want at Home)
The workplace feels more like home these days and I find myself coveting things I’d love to bring home.
I’m in love. I’m not talking about royal fairy tales found in Buckingham Palace or romances made for the movies. I’m talking about where I spend a large part of my waking hours – my workplace. The office used to be a vast sea of uniformity. But, it’s gotten to know me better over the years. It’s learned what I like and what makes me feel good in my creative space. These days my workplace feels a lot more like home. And, I find myself walking from space to space coveting things at work I’d love to bring home to meet the family. Here’s 10 pieces I’m in love with right now that will make your office feel like home.

SILQ’s alluring silhouette makes me want to sit down and enjoy the moment. An innovation in materials science created a chair that’s both light and strong — eliminating most of the mechanisms typically associated with office chairs. Surface Magazine calls it the chair “you’ll never want to get out of.” My home office couldn’t ask for more.
