Getting Established

Home office makeover with built-in desk

Had a front room with no purpose and built in this now study/office and art built in desk area

Materials

Bunnings wood desk, cube shelves, shiplap and shelving, Dulux primer and paints and added gold cabinet handles.

Tools

Steps

Step 1

1. Be creative

2. Write down what functions you need in the space i.e. desk, shelves

3. measure the space

4. research what you can use in that space I.e. drawers 

5. Start it

6. design or change as you go along often what works is rather unexpected and turns out better than you thought

7. you can do more than you think or ask for help 

8. finish it off at the finishing touches such as plants

9. enjoy and reflect on how well it looks

10. it’s ok to change things if it’s not exactly what you want or functions change in time.

Afternoon @smhills78 

The way you have used pre-made stuff to form a built in wall was a brilliant move, It reminds me of the classic styled mansion walls :smile: You realy have maximised the use of space!
