The One Room Challenge // Week 6 Reveal


With another One Room Challenge 6-week design marathon now complete, I am happily revealing my husband's newly made over home office. Folks, this was a nail biter, subject to late night electrician work and a last minute design change in the final hours of this challenge. In the end, I shut my eyes last night feeling very good about the space I created and grateful that the end result was just as I had envisioned. 


Some shout outs before we really dig into the big reveal. Thank you to Linda of Calling it Home for once again organizing such a fun and inspiring event. I'm grateful for not only the opportunity to make new friends through this event, but also for the motivation to complete another room in the home we've been painstakingly renovating for nearly 5 years now. Over various seasons, that's three rooms completed now because I had a 6 week deadline and didn't want to fall on my face out there in blog land. 

Also a big shout out to the last minute crew that showed up last night to make sure I didn't: Ryan "The Electrician" who helped trick out the lighting situation with a dimmable wall sconce and Kyle for "project managing". Also, thank you to the dude who added his muscles to some of the heavier projects in this space and worked for 6 weeks at the kitchen table with nary a complaint. 


As a reminder of where we started from, see the unfinished, boring before here

To add visual interest to our standard white box room, a faux brick focal wall was added and painted "Nightfall" by Benjamin Moore. Adjacent walls were brightened up with BM "White Dove". Shelves were built and hung to showcase my husbands collectables. I tricked out some IKEA curtain panels and the old aluminum window frame was painted black to mimic steel case windows. I also built a desk from scratch, including my first solid wood table top. 





Previously poorly showcased and unnoticed in the room,  many of the accessories came from what we already had on hand. I also hosted a big 40th birthday bash recently for my husband and in preparation for that, collected some new pieces that made their way into his office. A trip to the flea market over the weekend turned up this set of steel drawers, remnants of an old library card catalog. It actually has several more pieces that form a tower that I'll use to help organize another space.




We didn't get to replacing the door and hardware just yet. I decided to swap those out when we are ready to do so with the doors in the adjacent two rooms so we can tackle that project all at once. Likewise, my lighting selections DID arrive on time. However, a late design change had us sticking to the original industrial pendant as the room sort of grew around this piece and the new one just didn't match up.







The new sconce was hung over the artwork facing my husband's desk. Thankfully this piece arrived on time and was installed just under the wire on the eve of the reveal. 


Aside from the fact that it's a more inspiring place to do paperwork from each day, the happiest outcome of this work space makeover is that it also created a space that my husband can retreat to for some time on his own. It gets the most amazing morning sun and overlooks the vegetable garden right outside that window. I think it's important to have a little corner in our shared home that is meant for each of us to grab some alone time when needed. This space is perfectly suited as an area where he can listen to music or just reflect.

So that brings another round of The One Room Challenge to a close. Be sure to stopover and see all of the jaw dropping reveals by over 150 bloggers this week over at Calling it Home.

I love it Erin!!! It is so cool! I love the touch of the served whiskey on the desk. perfect styling. The brick wall is so creative and I love the mirror and old photographs and the prep vibe. Are those photos real family members? I love vintage photos. The pendant and sconce are ideal....You did an outstanding job Erin as you always do! Your projects always standout. Love it!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE that someone tackled such a masculine space. You nailed every little detail.

Decor To Adore said...

What an amazing transformation! A true job well done. I adore the color palette you selected. It feels fresh and fun. The six weeks went by so fast. I completed our entry, living and dining areas in a new to us 30 year old house. So, cheers to us! Have a wonderful week.

Brenda said...

I love masculine rooms and you've created a great one. Dude is a lucky man.

Linda {Calling it Home} said...

Erin, what a fantastic mix of masculine with edge. Love this office, and I'm sure your husband does, too. That light fixture over the art is a real show-stopper. Great job.

Vel Criste said...

Love that I could tell this is guys office ! That painted brick wall is so fab and the styling still so chic, even for a guy! LOL! ;-) Great job!

Richard V said...

Erin, you never cease to amaze me! Knowing the efforts you exerted to pull-off an incredible celebration for your husband's 40th, which would have left a lesser woman catatonic, this project might have been an even greater gift.

Sleep is over-rated.... What's next??

Unknown said...

Superb work! Well done :)

SHERRY HART said...

Kapow......yes...this is a great space! Well done. Love the color on the brick wall. I wish I had a cool space like that for me. You always bring it girl:)

Data hk hari ini 2022 atau disebut hk prize hasil keluaran togel hongkong terlengkap. Nikmati pengeluaran hk hari ini dan result keluaran togel hongkong prize live. Dewasa ini data hk 2022 menjadi salah satu trending topic di antara para penjudi. Mengapa begitu? Karena data keluaran hk hari ini memiliki daya tarik tersendiri, dimana mendapatkan hasil pengeluaran hk pools yang resmi bukanlah perkara mudah. Kalau dulunya jika ingin melihat hasil keluaran togel hongkong hari ini, kita tinggal pergi ke situs resmi hongkongpools.com. Namun tentunya kalian juga tau sendiri kalau kominfo membatasi akses ke dalam web tersebut. Kejadian seperti ini tentunya sangatlah disayangkan, karena banyak pemain yang akhirnya terjerumus ke dalam situs data hk pools yang tidak jelas asal-usulnya. Kerugian akibat tidak bisa mengakses result keluaran hk sah sangatlah besar.
