Proof That Cuyana's "Fewer, Better Things" Philosophy Works in Interior Design

Fashion girls shop Cuyana for its timeless bags, apparel, and accessories – think high quality materials and impeccable craftsmanship at a reasonable price – and now home lovers are flocking to Cuyana to check out its chic flagship office and showroom. The space, a former art gallery with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and cascading natural light, overlooks San Francisco's Union Square and was redone for Cuyana by interior designer Lauren Nelson. The vibe is modern, yet timeless, warm yet professional, and above all the perfect embodiment of Cuyana's motto, "fewer, better things." Oh yeah, and it features an ingenious blend of high and low items guaranteed to ignite design inspiration. Read on to check out every inch of Cuyana's office and showroom.

Warm wood and glossy black and white accents play off each other on custom-made desks, art, and luxe lighting.

In the conference room, a sleek white and black palette is broken up with wooden chairs painted soft green. Designer Lauren opted for lighting that was less extravagant — but equally as stylish — as the lighting fixtures in the main work area.

Office visitors can take a moment to relax in this sitting area upon entering the office.

The kitchen is pure perfection: pastel mint green cabinets are dressed up with brass hardware and placed against a gorgeous black and white diamond print backsplash (DIYers, you could hand paint something similar!). Light wood furniture ties everything together.

Staffers eat lunch and hang out at the dine-in kitchen's table area, complete with cushioned bench.

We love the combination of a modern lacquered tulip table and a Scandanavian-style wood chair.

The backsplash is repeated on an accent wall on the opposite side of the kitchen-slash-break room. The comfy sectional is a great place for casual meetings and brainstorming sessions.

A woven pink rug sits beneath a beautifully crafted wood door that slides on a hanger.

The stylish white marble coffee table was a surprisingly affordable West Elm score.

Behind the checkout counter, Cuyana's seasonal inspiration board is sandwiched between two — wait for it — Ikea bookshelves that Lauren elevated by attaching elegant brass hardware.

A mid-century modern bookcase is the perfect spot for accessories, like hats and tote bags. Cuyana's signature orange boxes add the perfect pop of color on the bottom shelf.

While designer Lauren Nelson used affordable Ikea and West Elm finds in some areas, she splurged on built-in cabinets and shelves since they are essential to displaying Cuyana's products and must stand up to much wear.
