Box it in
Ubiquitous storage boxes keep office essentials out of sight but not out of mind. Nicola personalized hers with wrapping papers, mixing and matching the papers for added interest. Flowers, Fauchois Fleurs; wrapping paper, Pierre Belvedere, Essence du Papier; ribbon, Masterstroke.

Pin it up
A pretty pinboard (behind the chair) places invitations—and inspiration—right before your eyes. Nicola painted the frame of this pinboard a pale Venetian blue, and lined it in a paper with stylized script to remind her of trips to Italy. Post­cards, notes from loved ones and vintage pictures are displayed front and centre to bright­en your days. Chair slipcover, Paolo fabric in twilight and Mulroney fabric in mocha, Robert Allen.
