The Bohemian Tide

    The Bohemian Tide

    Custom Floating Desk

    "It started with a floating desk. It ended somewhere between the ocean and an old rusted horse trailer."

    Then she pointed at a rusted horse trailer.

    The request began with a floating desk—something beachy, with a little bohemian soul. Then she pointed to an old rusted horse trailer and said, “I like that too.”

    And just like that, patina beach boho was born.

    Layers of sea-washed turquoise, stormy blue, weathered white and muted lavender were built up, broken back and blended together to create a surface that feels collected rather than decorated—as though shaped by salt air, time and a beautifully unconventional imagination.

    Designed to float effortlessly within the room, the finished desk brought together coastal color, free-spirited character and the perfectly imperfect beauty of age. Proof that inspiration does not always arrive in predictable places—sometimes it is waiting on the side of an old horse trailer.

    Because inspiration doesn't always arrive in predictable places — sometimes it's parked on the side of the road.
