How to Create a Santa Fe Interior Design Office
Santa Fe style is inspiration from combined Spanish and Southwestern Native Americans. Designing a Santa Fe office blends the aspects and elements of the Southwestern style. When creating a Santa Fe office, select items that provide the appropriate Santa Fe feel and touch.
- Spanish and Anasazi influenced the 17th and 18th centuries. Consider an original design of the Santa Fe style as you create an office interior design plan. Today, it's called melding of cultures, the Santa Fe style.
- Look at books, magazines and website images for ideas. When you look at different images you begin to visualize how this style might look in your work space.
- Decide the paint colors for your office. Santa Fe includes earth tone colors such as light and dark brown, dark red, medium and dark green, cream, orange and yellow. These colors can dominate an office or you can intermingle them with similar colors. Santa Fe colors represent their native clothing, pottery and mountain landscapes.
- Figure out how many Santa Fe architectural aspects you want to put in your office. Some Santa Fe elements are curved walls, exposed beams, heavy wooded doors and stucco walls. Typically, Santa Fe floors are dirt-packed, but in this date and age they are wood or tile.
- Choose your office furniture. Be sure the furniture is in relation to the Santa Fe style and appropriate with the office interior. Seating furniture is usually wooden with basic upholstery. Your storage of supplies and equipment can be plain, with wooden chests.
- Using art and accessories completes your Santa Fe designed office. Hang paintings and pictures that can depict Southwestern themes and landscapes. Some extra accessories that you can include would be Santa Fe sculptures and decorative hand-woven baskets. Maintaining the Santa Fe look and feel is easy by keeping your floors bare and adding textile accents around the office.
