Need help decorating home office

5 years ago

This is to become a home office. I’d like to paint the room and paint and use the pictured large cabinet (cabinet 77.5” wide x 66.75” tall x 18” deep) behind a floating desk and an upholstered wheeled desk chair. How do I hide the ugly wet bar? It has to stay. Is there room for a portable keyboard (piano) and/or chair(s) for others or relaxing? I’d like to be able to make room for 2 guests to sleep in here when necessary. I’d like this to be feminine, transitional, refined rustic, contemporary. I have to buy most of the pieces. This is a temporary home so I don’t want to spend too much. Any ideas?

    The beds and rug are not staying.

    As I see in the pics of your home which you want to convert it into a home office, then one thing I just want to know that in this room you also need an office desk or office chairs while you are working. So I personally think that you just need a corner office desk, which is easily fitted in your room's corner and it will not cover a huge area and you have space in your room. For an ugly wet bar, you just use some kind of painting that will cover that bar.

    Having read through this thread, and originally looking at the HM Aeron as I have used one of those previously, I've just picked up a leather one of these Boss Sona chairs for the bargain price of £84 on ebay! Great chair, lots of adjustment, nice quality, and really comfortable. Thanks for the recommendation.

    All people entering adulthood immediately think about work and housing, and all people want to make home comfort in their homes, and even somewhere in the office I want you to feel at home. And for yourself, of course, you want the best and highest quality, that is, high-quality furniture. If you like only natural furniture just like me, but don’t know where to buy it, I can advise you on a site that sells office furniture dubai and you can find there natural and high-quality furniture for yourself and your home or office. I hope I could advise you on what you were looking for.

    First of all, I love the wet bar. I have one by my desk and it’s wonderful to have tea, coffee, water nearby. Your guests will also appreciate it - leave a bottle of wine, wine glasses and snacks out for them.

    A good quality sofa sleeper can sleep guests, provide seating, and will give you more space while you’re using the room as an office. Add side tables and lamps, it will be a nice place to read too.

    Place your cabinet on the far wall that doesn’t have a window and float your desk in front of it. The sofa can go on the opposite wall, near the entry. Place your keyboard under the window opposite the wet bar and roll your office chair over when you play.

    If you don’t need the ceiling fan, a beautiful light fixture can be swagged above your desk.

    Agree with the above. I love the bar. I’d probably add some new hardware and maybe new backsplash. Two cheap fixes. I’d probably consider a Murphy bed. Matching to some built ins for work stuff storage. So that it looks intentional. Agree re the fan. I would love to see a nice light. And then a desk a chair and a rug is rlly all else that you need. Rlly good space

    I thought I would try these. Maybe one of them will work for your needs.
