interior decor: in-home office space for the creative writer

I crave for an in-home office space of my own just so  I could lock the outside world out while I work on my novel and postings for my blogs.

So, while I contemplate flats or apartments, the Richmond district or Nob Hill,  view of the ocean or the rolling hills of San Francisco, I dream of making the following changes to my studio apartment:

interior design: the likeable modern

I always go back and forth on modern design when it comes to interior design and decorating.  The reason I do that is because I think a home should seem less clinical and more endearing and also because since most work places are going in that direction, there should be a separation of work and what we’d like to call home. Anyway, to make my long story short, I am still on the fence, but that’s okay, I am entitled to my opinion. In the meantime, while I contemplate the style or the trend, I want to share a few of my favorites from here:
