If you’ve been hangin’ around coco+kelley long enough, you might recall that when I moved back to Seattle to start my own interior design+events+styling company, I also happened to pick up a little gig at Maison Luxe – a fantastically gorgeous shop owned by the seriously amazing Kelie Grosso (yes, I love it and her that much).
Recently, we relocated the shop to a smaller, cozier space, up on the second floor of a historic building in Pioneer Square with the most insanely fabulous windows. So, on top of my own home office, I now have a little space at Maison Luxe to call my own, and guess what? It was the perfect space for my inspiration board to come to life.
Obviously, the space is Kelie’s, so all the furniture is her own – the desk and file drawers are from Ikea, and the rest of it are pieces available through the store. I adore the caneback chairs!
I styled up the desk the way I’d have it for my own workspace – don’t you just love the amount of light coming in? And this was on a rainy day!
Let’s talk resources – the cork pencil holder is vintage, found via Etsy. The brass candleholders, the small white bowl and the silver pot are are thrift store items (!), the teacup is my one and only Hermes Balcon Du Guadalquivir. (*sigh*). The birdbath, yellow vase and chrome stapler all belong to Maison Luxe.
Another overall shot of the workspace – you can see my favorite Voluspa candle in Crisp Champagne (on top of the Hermes box) and my absolutely necessary desktop calendar. We stash tons of cards (just like Melissa!) for thank you notes in a clear vase. No fresh flowers today, which is why I always like to have a plant for some permanent green!
In the corner, we’ve got plenty of storage for little things, and one of the most important pieces – the ipod station! Also, Kelie’s ode to Paris and her sweet little birdie dish from Anthropologie.
Behind the desk is a little area for files, the phone, boxes and shelving to store our product binders, wrapping paper, and more office goodies. (The Hermes ashtray is Kelie’s – can you tell we have similar taste?)
Finally, just a peek at the rest of the space. The Ikea bookshelf separates the ‘office’ area from the rest of the shop. We have lots to do still before it’s full, but we’re getting there!
OH! It is so so beautiful! The light is amaaaazing… Loving all the details and pops of colour, especially that cute yellow vase. Yum. That birdie dish is darling too.
Sigh.

Oh man! I need that storage piece (with the iPod dock on it)… Instead of having all of my papers for my art strewn about my living room floor.
This is insanely beautiful. And as I look around the sad, sad office I’m forced to toil in, slightly depressing. I would love to opportunity to create a workspace as beautiful as this! You’re so lucky!!

OH goodness! What a dream space!!
the space is beautiful!!! There is a set of file folders shown down near the end. Does anyone know where they are from? I have a similar arrangement in my office, but it seems that my file folders are not strong enough and they always bend forward. i would love to have a set like these!!!!
Those windows are divine!
hey everyone, thank you for all the nice comments on our new digs! so exciting to be settling in, and yes..the light is truly amazing!
anon: those file folders are from target! i found them a few weeks ago, a set of 12 for $3.99. not sure of the brand, but maybe you can find them on their website?
hope to see all of you soon!
xo, kelie
