HP might have just launched the most beautiful laptop that has ever graced this earth. Matte black and copper! Need I say more? In honor of the debut they invited me to design a workspace, inspired by the sleek obsession-worthy laptop, and I said…. um, yes please!
Copper has already been all over my radar, I have been pinning and collecting copper pieces here and there for my home and office so when I got the first glance and the new Spectre it got really excited to create a copper accented workstation to match. Above is the design board I pulled together to set the tone. I’m calling it Minimal Modern Luxe.The copper chair with its’ curved seat juxtaposed with its’ straight lines go hand in hand with the laptop’s curved hinges and the matte black accent wall lays the foundation for the copper accents to pop just like on the Spectre.
To get the luxe look without spending a fortune, I splurged on some pieces like the chair, and saved on others, by doing an ikea hack desk, for example. The marble printed parson’s desk from West Elm was gorgeous and all but instead I took this basic Ikea desk, and wrapped the top with black marble contact paper, to up the table’s glam game.
And there you have it, a workspace fit for the design (and copper) obsessed to match the laptop of my dreams. Check out the ‘making of’ video to see how they teamed up with artists to create two limited edition versions (one is plated in 18K gold!!).
Ahhh, are those candlestick holders Skultuna? I have them in gold and have been obsessed with the copper and have been wanting to incorporate it into my collection! The link to Joss and Main is no longer available 🙁
Just found you what a treat. You have such a beautiful aesthetic and eye for size dimension and balance. So so happy. Hard to find designers still doing really cool neat realistic DIY. Thank you for sharing your home and studio. I just spent my whole day with you lol
HI Sarah, just curious if you are happy with that mirror. It looks amazing but a lot of the reviews on Target say it’s not great quality. I would love to hear your opinion. Thanks!
Hi LIndsey,
I had ordered it online and when it came I was actually happily surprised with it! I wouldn’t say it is high quality but once it is on the wall you would never know. For the price and the design I give it two thumbs up.
That copper chair is gorgeous! Works really well against the dark walls. Just missing this one accessory: the Stylograph http://oreeartisans.com/products/stylograph – a beautiful copper smart pen!
