The Desk Set: The History of the Open Office

Author AnaPosted on November 19, 2018November 19, 20182 Comments

Most of us have worked (or will work) in an office environment at some point in our adult life and unless we start our own company, we are likely to end up in an office organized in what is described as an “open office.” You might call it a cube farm, cubicle land, rat maze,…

Well-Appointed Studio Overhaul

Author AnaPosted on January 27, 2017January 27, 201719 Comments

Over the holidays, my husband and I finally decided to overhaul our communal workspace using the Ikea Kallax worktable hack I posted about a few months ago. The room is a medium-sized, guest bedroom that is used as an office/studio/catch-all in our small 2-bedroom house. We replaced a small wall shelf with the largest Kallax…

The Desk Set: Ikea Ideas

Author AnaPosted on December 3, 2016December 2, 20162 Comments

While browsing around the Ikea site, I found some great research in their Ideas section. It’s divided into categories for areas of your home, organizing, entertaining, and other pertinent categories and then has some wonderful pictorial essays of real people and idea posts about using Ikea products in your home or office to help. Since…

A New Perspective on the Facebook Office

Author AnaPosted on August 26, 20162 Comments

After I wrote my post on the new Facebook office spaces, my friend Andy made me put my money where my mouth was and invited me to Facebook to tour the offices for myself. Since that was one of my most commented upon posts I couldn’t pass up the chance to see the campus for myself. Was the…

Desk Set: Pastel + Storage

Author AnaPosted on February 9, 2016February 9, 2016Leave a comment

I loved seeing these pastel bright desks full of great organizational and storage ideas. I particularly like the the pegboard is just propped up behind the desk instead of needing to be mounted to the wall making it a good solution for renters and space to hide cords. While originally designed for a kid’s room,…

The Desk Set: Warm Wood, Bookshelf Divider and Color

Author AnaPosted on September 1, 20151 Comment

I found some beautiful work spaces today.  Lots of natural wood in this week’s Desk Set plus the requisite white workspace —  but this white space is a bookshelf with built-in desk and doubles as a room divider.

The Desk Set: Posh & Parisian

Author AnaPosted on August 24, 2015August 23, 2015Leave a comment

I found two lovely desks this week. The first is a unique purple and gold accented desk that has a vintage-luggage-meets-modern sensibility. I love all the geometric patterns in the room. The second is a lovely, wood roll-top desk mixed with a bright, mid-century chair for an eclectic look. Of course, its from a home…

  • My version of the @thugkitchen chickpea salad sammies with smoked almonds. I almost burned down my kitchen with my first attempt to smoke almonds. They smelled amazing until they started to actually smoke. Then they were just burnt. Luckily I had some store-bought honey smoked almonds I subbed in. I use the mini container of guacamole from Costco instead of an avocado because here in the Midwest they are stupid expensive this time of year. Swapped garlic for the onion as well because I had it on hand. Delish! #veganlunch #thugkitchencookbook
