Family room - eclectic family room idea in Other

Instead of a traditional desk, we opted for an antique drop leaf table for this project. The table afforded a compact footprint, but the ability to expand if more space is needed for projects. The new cream colored office chair, cream and taupe custom curtains and beautiful new wall paint in Spun Sugar from Sherwin-Williams, all work beautifully to make the space peaceful.
