Sneaking into people's offices

I always think it's interesting to see people's offices/creative spaces and I thought I'd post a few of the ones that had intrigued me the most.

Swarovski's new offices

Yesterday I went with Beth and Christine from Five dollar shake to the Swarovski offices just off Piccadilly. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any photos of their London offices because I loved the look, but they had the feel of their Austrian one which is seen above (just a little funkier).

With lots of clean white space, tons of pink roses with tiny crystals hidden inside,

lots of different jewellery and bags on display,

large pictures of the stunning mountains that surround the Swarovski factories

and various chandeliers including this amazing waterfall chandelier which was in reception it made for a striking and fun place to visit.

The anzu office/store cupboard

Yesterday we went to Ikea to get some supplies for the spare Anzu office. At the moment it is really a store cupboard packed to the brim with boxes, but we are hoping that soon it will be a rather more tranquil space. I would love that it be as calm and orderly as Lee Radziwill's (Jackie O's sister) office,

or this

but in the end as we have to stick with the hideous blue carpet in there and do have to store a lot of things, I'll probably just be happy if it doesn't end up like this. I don't know whose office this is, but how can they get any work done in there?

In particular I'm liking these images from Domino - white with colourful accents, tranquil and uncluttered.

I'll keep you posted!
