There’s much to discover inside the oak tree-shaded Austin home in Apartment Therapy Tech’s latest tech tour, but one thing in particular got our attention: the owners’ serene, uncluttered home office. Designed around a his-and-her pair of desks created for Herman Miller by George Nelson, the space features small pops of color by way of well chosen office accessories, a flexible Mirra Chair for long nights spent on deadline, and lots of light via a tall floor-to-ceiling window. Just outside? A soothing water feature offering white noise and an extra dose of tranquility.

Read the charming story behind the Nelson finds and see more of the tour at Apartment Therapy Tech.
