Now that the big parts of the new studio are ready, I'm really excited to turn my focus away from lighting, paint, and floor plans and focus on adding personality to our space.

My workspace came together the easiest. As a designer, I obviously found it pretty easy to take myself and turn it into a curated little corner of things. However, when it comes to David and Corey, and what they wanted in their workspace, they took such non-designer man approaches. David just wanted succulents and Corey wanted Legos. Sure, fab ideas all around, but not in the studio. (Ok, that's a lie. There are tons of succulents here, and I love Legos, but I needed more.)

I'll be sharing the plans for David's workspace soon, but today I want to focus on Corey.

Corey is – in a word – a nut. If I had to pick another, it would be nerd. It's ok, he likes that word.

We actually literally spent 20 minutes one day last week googling the difference between geek and nerd. I'm a geek; he's a nerd. We label it.

One of my favorite things about working with Corey is that he'll totally geek out with me about all my geekery. Bring up superhero movies, James Bond, or – god forbid – Doctor Who, and you'll see us both squeal with delight, and then laugh embarrassingly at how embarrassing we are, and then ramble for half an hour in a way that makes most people stare at us like we're nuts. We're ridiculous and we know it.

So, whereas Legos are a super fun option, I wanted to give Corey's workspace a little more geek imagery. My solution: minimalist movie posters. Think Iron Man, Toy Story, and – well, yes – Doctor Who.

I'm currently trying to pair it down to 4 finalists. Then, maybe adding a shelf for Legos. And pencils, or something actually useful.

Whatever it is, I'm excited. Maybe more excited than Corey. Though, maybe not.
