Here is a very interesting project I did a few months ago. It is called The Project Room. My client converted an empty bedroom into a space for homework, gift wrapping and other "projects". This was your typical bedroom, with a side window and a back window. She used cabinets on three walls that allowed for desk space and a window seat. In the middle of the room she had a custom made island that was great for storage. She has all of her gift wrap organized in it.
The window treatments consisted of Stagecoach Valances, which look a bit like stationary Roman shades. Under the valances, she put honeycomb pleated shades with the top/down-bottom/up option.
You can see that we had a custom cushion made for the window seat and dressed it up with some pillows in coordinating fabrics. All fabrics by Duralee.
What empty space in you home could you make more useful?
