We moved into a new building for our office.
It was fun to get a brand new office space because it was completely empty and we could make it our own.
I wanted a more modern looking office with light colored furniture, wood tables, wood chairs, maybe even a little Tuscan Furniture thrown in. My boss, though, is a lot more conservative as far as Furnishings go. Yes he wanted a wooden desk. Yes he wanted a wooden table. Yes he wanted wooden chairs with leather. In essence, he was looking for Cherry furniture embellished with leather and studs around the edges. I said that when he was done with his office it looked fabulous. It reminded me of an old world estate. I felt like he needed to put some bookshelves in there And cover those shelves with classic book titles. Even though our organization didn’t have much money to spare, his office still looked incredible. That is because he used his own money to get high-end furniture. When he wanted a wooden table for the reception area and couldn’t find one, he decided to get handmade furniture to complete the look. Leather chairs and high-end furniture really did put my office to shame. I liked the look of my office, but it really did not have the kind of old world class that his office has. When I was a little girl, I had French style furniture in my bedroom and I thought it was the most fancy and beautiful thing in the world. Nowadays, though, I find that the French style furniture is not to my taste at all.
