I will never grow out of Professor Layton games. In fact, I even thought about buying a Nintendo 3DS just so I could play the newest game in the series, Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask. Instead, I thought I'd dream up a quiet, grown-up gaming room inspired by this puzzling game.
If you aren't familiar with the Layton series, the Professor and his companion, Luke, set out to solve mysteries while you, as the player, help them work out a variety of mind games that help to unlock new clues. Layton and Luke are British, so there's plenty of stopping for tea and riding on trains, too. 
As a handheld gamer, there's really nothing better than a quiet corner in my office with a cup of tea for a long-puzzling session. In the third game of the series, Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, there's a lot of clocks and the trickery of time moving forward, so this quiet gaming spot captures many of those ideas. If you aren't familiar with the game, I can't recommend it enough. 
Here's how you can get this look:
- Infinity Gears Clock ($39.95)
- Anthropologie Parlor Curtains ($148)
- Pharmacy Floor Lamp ($169.99)
- Settee Love Seat ($299)
- Minimal Layton Pillow ($20)
- Kitsune Toss Pillow ($24.99)
- Orange Tea Kettle ($19.99)
- Moorish Pattern Ceramic Lamp ($129.99)
- Land of Nod Circulation Desk ($799)
- Hand Woven Cream Rug ($233.74)

Couldn't resist commenting - I love the Professor Layton games and I will never grow out of them either! (Seriously, think about that 3DS, Miracle Mask is awesome!) Love the items you chose, very Layton-esque!
A gentleman never forgets to leave a comment on such a fantastic post!
This is such a creative idea! We are always looking for new design inspiration and never thought of turning to Nintendo! Love it.

I'm obsessed with the circulation desk!
I have no idea who Proffesor Layton is, but I love this post. Very cute. Very Fun!
this is awesome! i'm a huge layton fan and you've really captured the spirit of the game here. love this!
yes please.
I love the gears clock! It's only $40. But do they ship to Japan???
I should play Prof. Layton series, too.
So cute! Love this post.
Okay, straight talk: Miracle Mask is not only better than Last Specter, it's better than the first three games put together. I can't recommend it enough.
Unwound Future actually made me kind of mad, because I love time travel and that game somehow managed to ruin its time travel plot, but the aesthetics have always been fabulous and that game was no exception. This was a really inspired post. The desk and curtains in particular could have been taken straight from the series.
Oh god, I love Professor Layton games! This is great.
I've never been introduced to Professor Layton, but I definitely want to give it a whirl now. And anything British makes me swoon. One quibble, though. It's an orange teapot, not a tea kettle, right?
I love love love this post. That clock is amazing. More video game style posts please!
