HELP! SPARE ROOM

So we have a spare room that needs to double up as a home office / clothes storage room. We’ve just moved in. Blinds and curtains will change. I was thinking of adding an Ikea white storage shelving unit, get out the original floor boards but I don’t know if it will look too cluttered with a clothes rail and desk and chest of drawers. Any ideas? Thanks!

Dark spare bedroom - help!
Comments (6)you can go dark but think about a warmer dark than blue. what about a fashionable browny grey or a deep umber, even aubergine. blue is considered a cold colour, so cosying up your room with blue will be hard to do. electric light on it can be harsh so all in all i would steer clear if I am honest....See Moresmall spare room

Comments (8)Due to the size / layout of one of our bedrooms we did not want a freestanding wardrobe and improvised very successfully with two of these mounted on the wall side-by-side: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/small-storage-organisers/racks-stands/hemnes-hat-rack-black-brown-art-10245870/ Dust is the only issue on items that don't get worn. But that's also a good motivation to take stuff down the charity shop....See MoreHelp needed to decorate my small playroom/spare room (pretty please)
Comments (16)yes I like the jungle idea possibly, though not sure if should keep with ivy as it matches whats currently there.. , not sure about the shelves or seating by the TV though. In the room next door there is an an 8 seater table, and a kitchen island, so its not as though this is the only place to have seating I guess. I like the ideas of natural look, almost Japanese, bamboo, bringing the garden in, just having difficulty with which wall colours, what to do with the post? keep white or make a colourful feature of it, and also what colour sofa bed, rug, paint on the walls to make everything blend in. It's so difficult, can't go for a lightish sofa, as it would just get too dirty, but I'm open to all ideas and very very much appreciate both yours and Rukmini's I have no idea how to put a room pic together like that so it helps massively. They have a lot of friends round, so a comfy rug /beanbags are also great, as long as we can also put them somewhere away too, so they're not in the way...See More
