Secret Love Affair
I’m an amateur artist, and I dabble in web design and random crafts. But the other thing I’m really psyched about is interior design. Shamelessly, I watch Cityline, House and Homes, Designer Guys, Divine Design, and even Debby Travis’ Facelifts. There’s also this other program–whose name I can’t remember–where the hobbyist will challenge that professional, also the host, in a design challenge to design the same room.
The tours and projects on these shows, however, are more conservative (not in the traditional vs. contemporary sense). The designs that I’m really in love with are… not.
How awesome are these spaces? (Mostly workspaces, and if my workstation looked something like this, I’d be damn excited to go to work each morning.)

Office Design Gallery is absolute looove. But in case you need convincing:
Fresh Home is also full of stunning designs:
And just throwing it out there, you have 43 mind blowing architecture photography examples, 10 unusual and creative restaurants, Seriously Cool Workplaces, creative bridges from the same series, and 30 incredibly funny food art to be random.
To complete, you have my workspace:

Ideally, I’d have two encyclopedias between the glass top and the computer drawers to add some character, but the glass won”t hold. And if I were rich, I’d totally splurge on this piece of wall graphic.
But on the upside, I have Hugh Laurie beside my keyboard =D

Wow! I must have spent a good hour looking at those bookshelves alone. Thanks for sharing these awesome links.

Oh, I think I’ve spent more than an hour with them! Those bookshelves are gorgeous.
You’re welcome. It’s absolutely my pleasure!

God, those bookshelves are amazing and so are those living/working spaces. These will come in handy when we start renovating as design options/inspiration, thanks for sharing.
A few of those restaurants, unusual as they are, were fun while the rest were a little weird. o_O
On the other hand, I love your workspace, the double-glass table is a great idea. Is that a print in the third frame or did you make it yourself?
