Tech Startup Office Design Project Description
I have a totally empty office that I'm about to move into and haven't chosen anything for the space aside from some cheap ikea desks & chairs. (that came with the last office).I'm looking to do something that feels a little more creative or is at least classier than the utter lack of design we have now.
-funky, clean, modern
-open to some unique lighting fixtures
A little more background on the planned usage for the space and existing furniture: The company is tech-based so employees will be spending most of their time seated at their desks. We have existing desks that are a light wood tone, and each desk will have 2 monitors. We also have 3 - 42" tv's for the walls.
Overall we are looking for sleek, modern, clean lines- with a pop of some kind of cool color to make it feel young and hip. Since we have existing desks, we are most interested in coming up with artwork, design for the walls and break furniture.

Home/Small Office:
Since your room is large your color options with this room are quite broad
For your main color, we chose to use white/off-white as it offers a fresh, clean, feel to the space. White and off-white colors are often a favorite for walls because they are light, neutral, and match most color schemes. They are known to make rooms feel more airy and spacious.
Use an eggshell finish paint which has a very light touch of shine (similar texture to an eggshell as implied by its name). This finish is very often used for walls and is more durable and easier to clean than matte finish
