Inspiration for Beating the Office Blahs

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Check out the ultramodern office makeover pics I spied in a particularly inspiring blog entry on design*sponge:

From the cowhide-print chaise lounge to the wall mirrors, photography art prints and colorful rugs, these rooms are just bursting with personality and style. And really, since so many of us spend the majority of our work days in offices or cubicles, doesn't it make sense to keep your space inspiring?

As I mentioned in a post on oversized art, I like to switch out the art in my office on a regular basis. This not only keeps things interesting, but it also sparks my creativity and helps me ensure I don’t get stuck in a rut.

How about you? How do you make your office a home away from home? Or if your office is, in fact, located at home, how do you arrange the space to stay motivated and inspired? If your office is half as inventive as the ones above, I’d love to see some snapshots!

If your workspace is on the uninspired side, perhaps now's the time to decorate for success. What kind of imagery, subjects, colors and themes make you feel happy and productive? Do you like scenes from nature or the city? Is your decor style eclectic and Contemporary or kicked back and Casual? Do Zen-inspired accents help you feel centered? Or do you prefer quirky Abstracts and Pop Art?

The average American spends about 40 hours a week on the job -- is that you? If so, it might just be worth your while to transform your workspace into your own little creative oasis. I know it works for me!

Until next week...
