Play with lines, colors and textures so that this office corner becomes an integral part of your living space without invading it. By painting the desk the same color as your wall, it will blend into your space and become almost invisible. Tip:A colored chair will add pep to the whole thing! Conversely, if your interior is refined and you have opted for a very white living room, bet on a note of color or graphic lines. Visual demarcation will bring power to your workspace.
