New home office ready for the Houzz touch.
This room was recently converted to a home office. I've been working with temporary furnishings until I was sure of how the room needs to function.
The room is small at only 116x93. All measurements on the floor plan are in inches.
The only things I want to keep from the room are the window shades. My style is mainly MCM and I love color.
I'll need a fairly large desk, a desk chair, a file cabinet, a bookcase and maybe a guest chair. I think I'd like to add a low-pile rug (or FLOR tiles) to absorb some sound and probably a new fun light fixture for the ceiling.
I'm not interested in doing built-ins, since this is not our forever-house.
Any layout and design suggestions welcome. I'll add some photos of other rooms in the house that I've redone with Houzz help to give a better idea of the style. I haven't had a room that's completely mine in a long time and I want to have fun in here!

I browsed the towel aisles at Target today. Here are my favorite towel/soap dispenser combos:
I’ll have to look at them again without the natural light coming through the window.

PRO6 years agoMy fav. It looks really nice. Didn’t realize the shade was custom. Looks too long? Maybe you could find a silver trim for the bottom edge to tie it into the wall and accents better. But overall such a sweet powder room.

Thought you all would get a kick out of seeing a shot of my neighbors‘ PR. They have been slowly updating their house. This pink tile is something that they inherited as well as the same challenging floor tile as my house.
I’m waiting for my friend to finish up another project before she starts on my ceiling. I also contacted the shade maker. They are remaking the shade to hopefully have it hang more smoothly.

I saw this ceiling treatment on another thread and had to share here. Wouldn't it be creepy to be in this tiny PR and look up to see this on the ceiling?

It's actually part of an anti-smoking campaign. Someone on the other thread just brought it up for fun.

The new replacement shade arrived today! This one hangs much more neatly.
Now I’m only waiting for my friend to start on the ceiling art.

babophz: The flap at the top is fairly common with woven shades, I think. My living room shades also have them.
