Next stop in the home office series: Concept Sketches.
The home owners wanted to have an open, light and airy environment where they could have conventional desks as well as a lounge area where they could read and also entertain clients occasionally. The space needed to be suitable for school age students who would need it occasionally for their remote learning.
We felt we needed to gain more natural light as there were only 2 dormer windows for the entire space. We suggested carving a significantly sized opening in the roof to create a skylight.
We also created a beautiful staircase and railings to replace the existing pedestrian version (concept sketch #1).
The desk area was designed for the far side of the attic. There were no windows there so we created large dormers with casement windows to match the historic ones. These dormers would create places for two desks and plenty of light and views that can be seen in this concept sketch #2.

Last week we introduced our home office series. Today, we are showcasing a couple of photos of an attic space in the Tudor Revival home. As you can see, it was being used for storage and the finishes are not in keeping with the original house.
These "before" photos show the future seating area as well as the future office area before new dormers were added. Stay tuned next week see the next stage in this incredible transformation...

So many people are working from home now and it’s likely the business world will transition towards this permanently. And can we just say two words? Home schooling. It’s a thing.
So we thought it might be helpful to outline approaches to creating high functioning office/work spaces for your residence.
Many homes have forgotten spaces that are being utilized for storage, typically not habitable purposes. This is a project that took a neglected storage space and transitioned it into a beautiful and functional office.
Here you will find some photos that highlight the overall concept of the project - from before to sketch to after. Over the next several weeks, we will spotlight details of this impressive transformation...
