Bedroom to Home Office
This contemporary home office is bright, cheery, and fun! The white acrylic cabinetry finish keeps things easy to clean. Lot of patterns and textures are used from funky hot pink cheetah print to turquoise and green polka dots. The ceiling fan even has bling with Swarovski crystals!
What the client wanted
The client wanted to turn this bedroom into a home office with a lot of function. She wanted a full-size writing desk where she could do paperwork, a place for her visiting grandchild to sleep, storage for files, craft supplies, sewing supplies and machine—and a place to sew! She also wanted the room to be fun and different from the rest of her house, but still keep with her contemporary style.
Solutions
A custom built-in wall unit was designed in contemporary cabinetry. There is a pullout for her printer on one side and one for her sewing machine on the other. There are file drawers and lots of shelves to hold fabrics, etc. All of this is behind the doors in order to keep the space from appearing cluttered. A large work surface with LED under cabinet lighting provides plenty of space to sew and craft. The contemporary, kidney shaped sofa is covered in a kid-friendly fabric and is wide enough (with loose back pillows removed) to serve as a comfortable bed. The walls are painted in a granny apple green for a fun, bright atmosphere.
