Inspiration for a calm home office

We must be gluttons for punishment because in addition to finishing our kitchen remodel, redecorating the family room, and starting a bathroom remodel; we've decided to take on the task of redecorating our home office. The room needs to serve 3 functions: a study space for me, an office for Cody, and a hang out space for the dogs. We've decided to go with a monochromatic color scheme (white) to keep things simple and calming with accents of black to keep it exciting.

The room will have 2 of these Vika Gruvan/Vika Artur desks from Ikea. I found this room on HGTV's Rate my space. I love the simplicity of the floating shelves.
The following rooms were all found on House to Home's website.
Since our room will be feautring two desks on the same wall, I love the idea of unifying the two work spaces with massive floating shelves.


The kitchen remodel and the deck should both be done next weekend. Stay posted for pictures of both.
