Just as the categories in our lives overlap, multifunction rooms like these can be the most used and most loved spaces in a house. I adore the slim shelf for books or a closed laptop just below the countertop.

Grown-up color. This is clearly a functional kitchen - the busy shelves and laptop make it clear. But the exotic mustard color on the walls also gives it a ton of sophistication. It's not obnoxious, but it is bold and very different - the owners of this house took a chance, and it paid off.

The main challenge that people face in their twenties in terms of home design is a lack of space. You may be sharing space with roommates or simply living in a tiny apartment. The trick that you have to learn is how to make the most of your space. Creating multi-functional spaces is a great idea in your twenties. This spot here serves as a breakfast nook, a computer workstation and a place to have cocktails with friends who visit.

Simple shelves like these are what IKEA's made for.

The wall color!

Kitchen desk

chartreuse! floating shelves; love the storage area under the bar for homework/projects

love the multipurpose of this addition to the kitchen

Chairs

work space at the end of your counter in kitchen. slim shelf for books or closed laptop just below the countertop.

bar

If its just not possible to have a separate workspace, this is a smart way to make the eat-up bar serve double duty to store a laptop/homework, etc.

wall color

Love the shelf

storage space at bar

LOVE the space under the counter top to stash whatever you're working on. Also love the open shelves instead of upper cabinets

color

Undercounter drawer. Want to include this in the bar height table if I can with less "drawer" height.

Love the colour! Its has the youth of yellow without the childishness.

homework in the slots?

The cubbies underneath the breakfast bar are great for laptops, napkins, etc.

If the doorway behind the chairs leads outside, but isn't the inside entry to the room, these stools are well placed, too.

Shannon - interesting idea for the "glass cantilevered" area to the right of ovens. Still have landing space in form of narrow cabinet, then raise for computers like this?

I think this bar design is brilliant. The storage space could make the difference between all out mess and the clean aesthetic seen in the picture...even with kids, busy lives, etc.
