Desk shelving

8 years ago

I see several questions have been asked about the desk/shelving but have gone unanswered. I too am interested and would like some information. Where were these purchased? How much did the cost? Are the lengths customizable?

This desk and floating shelves were custom designed and built locally in Portland by us and finished with our signature automotive paint finish with strip lights added underneath and reclaimed barn wood on the walls. It is not something that can be purchased off-the-shelf. I'm sure you can find a local craftsman and paint shop to replicate.

Take out sofa, use beanbags and those blow up seats for their friends. Coloured rugs for tumbling and crawling on. Supersoft teddy bear blankets so they can curl up. Add in one of those soft blanket boxes for toy storage and so you have somewhere soft to perch when you are with them. Paper half way up the wall in the wall paper that kids can draw on, so they can decorate in whatever colour they like and you won't mind. A childs lift up desk, bookcase and some crazy lamps in weird colours. Then close the door, collapse on the sofa that you have moved, breathe a sigh of relief and thank your lucky stars that you have another room for the kids to go to. (Grab wine and pretend they aren't yours for half an hour! ;-) )

I have to agree with nudejude regarding the upholstered furniture sizes and positions. The room looks long and narrow, so placing 2 chairs or a 2 seater sofa opposite another 2 seater would allow you to enter through the door and walk, unrestricted, through to the opposite end of the room. An area rug between the sofas, large enough to fit under their front legs and perhaps a clear coffee table in glass or Perspex between would make a great conversation area. There may be enough length to the room to use a console table behind the sofa nearest the double doors with 2 small occasional chairs. A pair of lamps would provide light for the sofa and for the chairs. If the chairs are needed, they can be brought into the main conversation grouping. A Roman blind, with or without the curtains, would set off the window. Throw cushions in a variety of patterns and colour, will add interest to the upholstered pieces. Good luck and enjoy your home.

If it all fits in then why not. I don't think the desk will go with the bed or maybe it would work it the desk was painted. Do you need the desk or could you use a smaller console table for working/doing things from ? Not a fan of sliding doors would rather swop the door so it opens the other way if space is an issue. What is going on the shelves are they needed ?

Hi Catriona, I hope you are well. Its hard to see the room size room size from the picture, but I thought that if you used the main wall and had built in shelving / desk areas where you could also mount the television, this would give you the duel functionality without having to add bulky desks taking up space. It would also allow for people to pass through into the 2 bedrooms. I am attaching some inspiration photos below. Hope this helps Best, Emily

We did something similar! I would have loved to do the wood paneling on the wall but we already had dark wood floors so i painted geometric designs and found shelving at IKEA for the desk and shelves. Loved this inspiration!
