This arrangement allows the eye to wander for inspiration and leaves plenty of room to study models or references.

And finally, let’s leave off with something fun. The geometric Chair One makes such a wonderfully dramatic pairing with the striped rug. While many designers try to make these miniature offices blend into the background, this designer embraced the arrangement with a bold theme.
