Kim Kardashian's stylish, minimalist office space is full of natural materials and geometric shapes. Chairs and sofas designed by Rick Owens give the room an elevated feel, while industrial details like steel beams and concrete floors help to ground the design. Modern lamps and tables contrast with potted plants and flowers for an enviable neutral room idea.
Designers say that the layout, colors and textures in the office space are uniquely created for inner peace. 'Kim Kardashian's office is thoughtfully designed to evoke a sense of peace and balance for her and her team. The symmetrical configuration, earthy neutral tones, and organic and natural elements throughout the space create a sense of serenity,' says Cory A. Ferris, head designer at Cory Alisa Fine Arts & Interior Design.

Cory Alisa Ferris has a background in fine arts including serigraphy, painting, and lithography. She has worked in prestigious San Francisco Bay Area design firms and worked as part of the Pottery Barn product design team. When it became clear to her that she was most passionate about interior and home design, she founded Cory Alisa Fine Arts & Interior Design.
'Natural elements like the visible plants, exposed wood, and gentle, sloping lines in this space play a huge role in why this office works,' says Jennifer Ebert, digital editor at Homes & Gardens. 'These earthy touches remind us of being outdoors, helping to calm the static in our brains. A lack of stress is an essential aspect of a productive work environment, and Kim's design team definitely knows this.'

Jen is the Deputy Editor (Digital) of Homes & Gardens online. Before starting this position, she had completed various interior design courses at KLC Design School, as well as working across Ideal Home, LivingEtc, 25 Beautiful Homes and Country Homes & Interiors as an interiors writer.
'Color and texture play a large role in how our bodies physically react to the spaces we live and work in, and it's clear Kim and her designer wanted her team to feel calm and collected when working in this space,' says interior designer Cory Ferris.

Cory Ferris states, 'The lower seating implies this is a room that invites a group to sit closely and comfortably together while collaborating. When a team feels relaxed and more connected, creativity and productivity increase.'
'This space is a refuge where Kim and her team can separate from the outside
world and focus on what's driving them forward,' she adds.
