Vertical and Minimal Office Space Makes Us Jealous

120408_sz_desk.jpg We love a well organized desk, especially someone who can tidy up in a vertical manner. Philadelphia event planner, Elizabeth, just finished setting up her home office. We love the blue and white layout and the bottom shelf that lays just above the light switch. It hides it just enough. We're also way into the acrylic office supplies laid out around the pristine ice Macbook.

She's got a pretty nice bathroom as well. Photo after the jump...

Source on the vanity and sink anyone?

White does not equal minimal

The vanity/sink is the same one I got from Lowes. Not sure of the brand.

This looks great and is well-organized, but it is not minimal. I wish the writers at AT would stop calling any space which looks good and isn't particularly colorful minimal.

There are an awful lot of (nicely chosen) decorative objects. As mscot pointed out, white is not minimal.

Sink is from Lowes. IMO it is a POS, made of cheap stuff and not very sturdy. Most of the time the display for that vanity is all tattered and the hinges on the door are falling off the frame.

Speaking of using vertical space better, some desks have shelf space above made of steel, which when combined with the raw power of magnets, yields high efficiency:
