Design Overload

3 months ago

Help! I’m currently in design overload, trying to figure out a room that I will be making my home office. There are a few things that I’ve chosen already and love, that will need to be in the room. Other than that, I’d love to see some suggestions. If this were your home office, how would you do the layout, what would you use for organization and workspace?

I’m painting it SW Accessible Beige (we have a lot of paint left over from a remodel), the floral fabric will be curtain panels hung from the ceiling, the wood in the floor is the start of the window trim out, and the dog is just because I couldn’t convince him to move Amythjng after that is open to suggestions! Thanks so much!!!move. :)

beginners garden design/layout help needed!!!!
Q

the layout and planting ideas are great, thank you. the garden is south facing, so the evening sun is on the triangular area nearest the front door. I put bamboo screening up but there's a footpath the other side of the metal fence, and it got vandalised so often that I gave up. ditto the few fence panels we had put up against the metal fence to give us some privacy. it's council and of course they refuse to erect a decent fence, or facilitate some sort of system where we pay them back in instalments. I dont expect handouts, I'd have a 6' high fence put up tomorrow if I could afford it. hiring a skip is also out of my budget, so I've gradually been taking stuff to the tip or burning it. I have kids and pets including chickens, and although I'd like to think I'll grow some veg in the raised beds, I know I'll never get round to it! the sheds: one small one is a potting shed, the other small one in the corner chicken run is storage, and the big one is supposed to be a workshop but is currently crammed with stuff that needs sorting and storing or chucking, including all my tools, garden tools, kids toys, camping stuff, etc etc. I'm sure you get the picture! there are 2 greenhouses and umpteen raised beds, stacks of bricks, wood, bits of shed panelling, old Windows etc, because my husband had lots of plabd for the garden and did loads of growing veg etc, but never got round to finishing anything. in his defence this is Wales, it rains all the bloody time, and of course there are never enough hours in the day. however, we have recently separated, so I now find myself staring in horror at the whole overwhelming project, scratching my head, wondering where the hell to start, and then closing my eyes and pretending it's not there.

Hi Sal89, I love sparkly things, but I would accessorise with sparkles and glitter rather than the worktop in case you change your mind 5 years on.... I have just done my kitchen and I went for a crystal chandelier and crystal knobs and I think it looks fabulous and very "me". I can change it when I get bored for a very minimal cost! The rest of the kitchen is plain with mussel and lamp room grey units and a white dekton worktop. Another option you can also add a glittery roman blind too! I did look at the glittery worktop it Wren and saw it a cheaper version in B&Q that appears exactly the same!

Love that fabric and love nosy doggie!

To help with suggestions, what kind of work equipment will need to be in there? Do you work from home?

Do you have a desk yet, or one picked out? Will you need shelving or a bookcase(s)?

There are lots of posters here great with room layouts (I’m not one of them), the more context the better. :)

Love the fabric!

I would love green on the walls too, it would feel just like a hug.

Maybe if you have bookcases you can paint the inside of the bookcases that dark green?

I don't know what type of work you do, and if you have a storage closet in there.

Most of the photos of home offices I see online and in magazines do not show adequate storage for office supplies, computer equipment and supplies, miscellaneous electronic equipment, books, and files and e-data storage.

Please carefully plan out what you already have and how you project your your needs to change.
