Best Use of a Dormer: Office Nook

Written by Eva on 17 March 2008.

We all have those spaces in our homes that we have to get creative in order to utilize, and I esteem this dormer as the best use of dead space! Dormers can be a tricky bit of business to get right when attempting to be deemed as functional. Designer Collen McGill’s attic is featured in House and Home’s March 2008 magazine, and it is a fresh and tidy work of organizational art! With a wrap-around desk in a crisp white, and storage and shelves under the slopes of the ceiling, it certainly would be a cozy and refreshing place to work. Well done.

Bedford Project Table Office

Written by Eva on 20 February 2008.

More and more people are working from home, studios and corner offices are becoming domesticated and I love it! I am all about organization and in order to stay in top form, your workspace should provide a clear and functional space for all your hard work. Enter the Bedford Project Table, it fits all the criteria with two 3x3 Bookcases for storage on both ends and a huge tabletop. The tabletop (measuring at 55” wide and 38” deep) is definitely large enough for all your crafts, serious paper work files, photo shoot layouts…you get the picture. The desk is at a kitchen-countertop height, so pick out some swiveling high stools where you can perch with your home-brewed coffee from 8-5. Available in other colors; antique white, espresso, and mahogany stain.
