Room Inspiration: An Updated Mid-Century Office

This room was inspired by a client’s request for a "Mad Men" style work space with current day sensibilities.  After perusing through these images, Cocoon Home came up with this modern mid-century office.

Credenza, calendar, leather chair,  light, desk, rug, task chair and art.

There's something elegant and festive about diamond patterns especially when they're underfoot.  Whether they're bold or tone-on-tone colored, they do make a strong statement.  Take a look at a few of my favorite diamond patterned spaces:

If committing to paint is an issue,  a diamond patterned rug can offer a very similar effect.

So what do you think, are diamonds your best friend?!?
