"i would love your help to finish my office. it's technically donny's :( and it's the one room he has design control over in the house-but it's hard because he wants it to be an outdoors theme. any suggestions w/o becoming too tacky?"
I definitely know the pain of a husband having design opinions. Zach has made many suggestions for our house including a red and silver color combo, hanging beads in lieu of doors, and using posters from Spencers. So an outdoors themed office is pretty mild in comparison.
I think the best way to approach Erin's dilemma is to use elements from nature as well as a few clean modern pieces so as to avoid the Bass Pro Shop look.
