This was a HUGE project that I eventually had a lot of fun with. Another Feng Shui request existed here: this area of the home was supposed to have purples and golds and no unfinished projects or clutter of any kind. Well, this was a storage room. Boxes full of items that were never used, empty boxes to maybe use for shipping in the future, broken items that were intended to be fixed, and furniture that might one day be put to use. Purging was both challenging and incredibly rewarding. I pulled everything out of the room so that it could be plastered and painted and only brought back items that had a use and belonged in this room ... which became a functioning office and studio for a very creative individual. A 4 x 8' piece of Homasote was covered in an ooge patterned wallpaper to be used as a cork board for creative ideas. The ogee motif is repeated in the drapes, decorative paper in frames and backing wigs, and the rug. (The modernist lighting pendant lamp has a related wave-like pattern.) The ogee pattern was inspired by a pair of antique chairs that are too fragile to sit on, so became decorative accents. Not all of the clutter disappeared. It is an artist's studio, clutter is a natural part of the creative process. There's a "Modern Metallics Champagne" accent wall, and purple and gold accents scattered around the room. Purple and gold are not colors I wanted to drown this room in.

Entry, kitchen and dining room open to each other to visually create a larger space.

A walkway was preserved away from the tall cantilevered windows, allowing space for additional hanging and flat-file drawers. The project was recognized with an ASID Furniture Design Excellence Award.

Home office - modern home office idea in Seattle

Fairbairn Brothers Builders Constance Schiano Photography In order to make full use of this small space, a drop top desk was acquired to maximize space. What was previously a catch all of family junk turned into a space efficient and fully functional home office. The French door open to a back porch perfect for the westward faint views of the sunset.
