Home Offices

One of my favorite rooms to really put a lot of thought into is my home office. With spaces being scarce, it takes some thought. Mine is in my main living area, taking up one small wall. I think the main thing you have to consider is what you actual use your home office for, and then go from there. Sometimes keeping the laptop by your bedside is all you will really need. Do you have a dedicated space for a home office? Mine is used primarily to pay bills, keep all the "papers" organized and surf the net.

    Glad you are back. I like the shelves with the desk attached. That would work out well for a lot of people.

    Welcome back!

    I also like the bookshelf/desk combo. And such a cheery color!

    I love the idea of using the bookshelf as a divider for two desks - might let my boys concentrate on their homework instead of amusing each other! Those baskets hanging off the side of the bookcase is a clever use of space too.

    So glad you are back! I would love to have a home office, I wish we had the space! When we moved into my current apartment, the BF took dibs on the one office there- so sad for me. But, if I had one I would want it to look like any of these- great post!

    Great blog by the way! You might be interested in what we did with our study which is now integrated into our dining area. It works brilliantly! There are more pictures in flickr at http://www.flickr.com/photos/charcoalandwhite/
