Ina Garten's Barn Office...

I can handle most of the Food Network personalities

in very small doses — but Ina Garten is definitely

an exception. I find that there is something both

calming and comforting about Ina's delivery —

so much so that I record her shows and watch them

whenever I want to relax. This image is from Ina's

newly built Hampton barn office. We have a very

similar desk at Finderskeepers at the moment.

The finish on ours is more weathered and gray, and

its aesthetic slightly more primitive. I love how the

artwork and the desk almost mirror each other in

size and color; and that braided rug is the perfect

texture to ground it all. The paint is White Tie by

Farrow & Ball. Image: House Beautiful
