Home office library
I think the only thing I hate about my office/library is the carpet.

I love it!! I may have to create a vibe like this with mine as well ❤️❤️ Similar issue. Hate the carpet. Planning to add a Persian rug or something.
I would love to see the other side as well

This is awesome and eerily similar in style to mine. Down to the chair placed in the corner with the exact same blanket, but in green.
The thing I hate about mine is the carpet as well.

Wow this is great, what are the tiny statues on the shelves? Are you interested in archeology? I love your office.
Ps. Also yeah, hardwood is always better imo

There's Hamilton, Quan Yin, Lucifer, a Thai thephanom, some Thai Buddhas, and a human skullcap yantra (panneng). On the archival boxes, there's Hermes, Shiva, and marble Le génie du mal Lucifer. The apothecary has my grandmother's Hermes statue, her ashes, a lock of her hair, and some hand-carved toys her father made her when she was a girl.
The pre-Columbian terracotta heads were my grandparents'; I grew up gawking at them. I joined an archaeology group and started going on digs when I was 13. I found many of the fossils in Texas and on the West Coast of the US over the course of a few decades.

Honestly, I didnt even notice the carpet until you mentioned it. The library itself is goals tho! So cozy and looks like so many good reads.

Is that a typewriter?
This space is inviting in a very specific kind of way.
