I’m a lover of maximalism. While some prefer more pared-back schemes, to me, nothing beats a room decorated with layers of meaningful treasures that tell my story.
Whether it’s a living room that dons a rather statement wallpaper or rows of decorated shelves in a kitchen, maximalist homes have a unique charm and personality that never grows old. They’ve had a reputation for being a little overwhelming at times, but any good design aims to leave a lasting impression.
Shop the look
From vintage paintings to rustic vases, Josh’s study is filled with trinkets and treasures. A lover of vintage classics, Josh’s space features a pair of Classic Industrial Metal Side Chairs by Ohio Steel as well as a rather decadent Early 20th Century Iron Oak Leaf Metal & Wood Chandelier.
While every piece in the home office is filled with character and story, what holds the design together and gives it its charm is its artful balance of these pieces. So, if you’re looking to recreate the look, remember to incorporate pieces that speak to you, but balance them with complementary colors and textures.
LuxenHome Antiqued Blue & Brown Terracotta Vase
With a rustic glaze, this antiqued blue vase is the perfect bookcase accessory that will bring charm and patina to any arrangement. Place it on a stack of books or fill it with delicate stems for a thoughtful look that exudes character.
Menka Metal USB Desk Lamp By Mercer41
Josh’s desk features a rather chic midcentury desk lamp. A collector’s item, midcentury lighting can prove a little pricey, but this Menka Metal Lamp proves that more affordable lighting can be just as chic and stylish.
Marsh with Ducks French Landscape Oil Painting Print
Josh’s bookshelves feature an array of paintings. Each is unique in subject, size, and style, adding to the eclectic feel of the arrangement. To recreate the look, add this charming French landscape to your shelves, paired with a stack of books and a vase.
Andre Bookends (Set of 2)
No study is complete without its books. You’ll notice plenty scattered amongst the shelves in Josh’s office, flanked by charming decorations. To recreate the look, add these chic marble bookends on either side of your books for a thoughtful arrangement.
Aunye Natural Fiber Jute/Cotton Geometric Rug
A rattan rug sits at the center of Josh’s study. Woven in a similar geometric pattern, this natural fiber hand-loomed style will ground your space and provide an all-important element of warm texture.
Bea Velvet Office Chair – Hale Rust
A rust-colored desk chair sits at the heart of the study, much like the Bea Velvet Office Chair. With a smooth velvet seat and swivel base, it’s practical, stylish and deeply chic and will give your workspace a dose of luxury.
Josh’s study is filled with thoughtful details. From the bookcase decor to the warm color palette, the space is the perfect balance of old and new. It proves the power of eclectic decorating and staying true to yourself.
