The Room · N° 05
The study rewards materials with quiet gravitas — book-cloth textures, tobacco greens, ink grounds and hand-blocked leathers. Rooms for concentration deserve materials that reward attention.

Considerations
What to think through
before you choose.
- i.1
Behind the shelving
Wallpaper installed behind built-in bookcases reads only in glimpses — worth investing in a material that rewards close attention.
- i.2
Video-call background
For clients on daily video calls, we recommend low-contrast textural papers that flatter skin tones and don't compete with the speaker.
- i.3
Glare and screens
Matte finishes over shine. Reflective metallics behind a desk create screen glare and eye strain.
- i.4
The client wall
For advisers who see clients in-office, the wall behind the desk is a signature move — a hand-painted mural, a grasscloth, or a lacquered fabric.
