Although this space is small, designers used the architecture of the building as well as elements in their design to make the space feel larger. For example, stately wood paneling leads the eye all the way up to the high, pitched ceiling, while the ceiling height, arched windows let in plenty of natural light so that the space feels magnificent. Then, designers brought in rugs and art to create defined spaces within the office so that the room has flow and purpose. Finally, designers used strategically placed metallic pieces, such as the desk and filing cabinet, to reflect all of the gorgeous light in the space, creating a functional space with a grand feeling.

In the reception area, oversized arched windows rest behind the metallic desk to add drama and dimension to the eclectic space.

The metallic desk in the reception area stylishly reflects the light and the design of the space to create a larger, more open feeling.

For a larger feeling in the office space, designers used rounded, floor-to-ceiling doors an windows, drawing the eye upward to the pitched ceiling and recessed lighting, creating a bright, warm and inviting space.

In the waiting area, two comfortable chairs provide clients with a cozy place to sit. Behind these chairs, a library displays art and books that are easily accessible to guests as they wait.

The high, pitched ceilings of this warm office space make the small reception area feel larger and more open.

To separate the main office from the reception area, designers installed pocket doors. These doors would create two different spaces without taking up any precious floor space in the small office.

Designers wanted to create a reception area that feels very connected, but also has clearly defined spaces, so they chose to incorporate elements into their design that would visually separate each one. In the waiting area, built-in bookshelves wrap around the chairs for waiting clients; in the reception space, wood paneling and artwork provides definition. Finally, the main office space is hidden behind a set of pocket doors that can be opened or closed, per the needs of the situation.

Although this is an office, the office supplies do not take the space's focus. Instead, designers use stylish containers, a metallic file cabinet, lots of art and heavy wood paneling and cabinetry for a stately feel in the space.
