We are huge fans of textile designer John Robshaw, but since we are still waiting for our invitation to visit his house (ahem), we just have to make do with some good old-fashioned voyeurism. Accented with shades of cerulean, his signature ethnic fabrics, and natural finishes, Mr. Robshaw's office manages to be stimulating and calming all at once — a combination that can be tricky to pull off. We dissected some of our favorite elements, like the two-toned paint job and modern campaign desk, and found similar versions that will help you get the look.
