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.

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.

Since our main challenge in designing this room was the limited space and inward opening doors, we decided to incorporate an executive sized, l-shaped desk. By allowing this piece to be the largest in the room, the client was able to have a desk that best suited the needs to run a business from home by having enough space for paperwork and storage, while portraying an elegant and bold look. We then used slim metal frame chairs to provide a comfortable seat for the clients when they visit. By going with a chair with a slim frame, we were able to add two without the room feeling cramped when the doors are either opened or closed. We selected a hand crafted, tribal, hair on hide rug to provide the African influence desired.
