Moving into a new office is a bit like playing house: there’s an irresistible urge to decorate, to make it your own.
Fortunately, I have some good bones to work with:
The new office is in the Baillieu Library, which marks its 50th anniversary next year, so the retro furniture is quite at home here.
I have a framed print of an Albert Namatjira painting, left behind when the previous owner of my house moved into a nursing home. (Coincidentally, Namatjira died in 1959; there are concerns about copyright in his works expiring and his family being unable to collect royalties.) The style of the plain white frame would go well with the Mitzi chairs and the coffee table. Hmm… I feel a theme coming on…
