A gentleman‘s office is like a well-tailored suit to the corporate wardrobe, where ideas unfold like perfectly dressed shirts and decisions are polished with the precision of a silk tie knot.

Simply put, this is where the work gets done. Moreover, the aesthetics of an office can have a strong influence over your mindset to get this work done (and sometimes it just looks so damn good).

Enter Ali.

Recently, he underwent an office transformation with the aim of making his study a modern take on a traditional and old-school gentleman’s office.

Here are the final results, a great inspiration if you’re looking to make your office space classy and timeless.

Classy Gentleman's Office Inspiration

Classy Men's Office

The office includes many touches of interior design expertise, from the wooden bookshelf with vintage books to the single chair in the corner.

Ali accounts for all occasions, most importantly creating a calming and inspiring place to work from.

"I’ve always dreamt of having an environment to work in like it. The idea was to create a space that would age gracefully as I hope I do also haha"

Vintage Suitcases and Books

Classy Office Trunk & Bookshelf

A custom Louis Vuitton Suitcase is an aesthetic touch that doubles as a simple way to disguise storage.

The bookshelf, a hero feature of the room features antique books and old-English book-stops.

"The old and worn books are a feature I’m particularly happy with as they really bring home that traditional feel to the room, Lauren sourced these from antique stores locally."

Feature Chair for Daily Pondering

Classy Office Chair & Notepad

Grey walls, paired with wooden floorboards and a neutral rug add to the warm tone of the room.

A single armchair parched in the corner of the room is a perfect space to enjoy some quiet time reading or observing.

On the right, an essential item to any gentleman’s office – A journal. Always have one by your side to scribe thoughts and processes.

Antique Accessories

Classy Office Accessories

Accessories play a big role in bringing the room to life. Sourced from local antique stores, they allow for the age of the room to remain traditional and elegant.

Classy Office Desk

"The wear & tear should add to the character of the room over the years rather than make it look more tired and in need of a refresh."

A Perfect Blend of Aesthetics

Classy Office Conclusion

The perfect example of creating a classy office space without going over the top. Ali and his team have done well at capturing a traditional setting for him to complete daily work. 

An aesthetic that we personally love.
