Smart Work & Multi-functional Room Designs

After: The completed media room and home office. I designed this room to be multifunctional, with a sectional sofa that opens into a bed for guests, surrounded by hidden cabinetry for storage. The built-in desk creates a functional home office space.

This peek into the media room shows the warm and cozy ambiance I created. The wood-paneled accent wall, soft backlighting, and comfortable sofa make it the perfect setup for family movie time or even a quiet meditation session.

This moody blue home office was carved out of a small, doorless space. I added see-through glass and metal doors for privacy without making the room feel smaller. The L-shaped desk and oversized art create a cool, functional backdrop for video calls.

I love finding clever ways to incorporate a workspace. In the Breeze Home master bedroom, I tucked this home office setup into a small nook. The floating desk was created by repurposing our client's old table, and the wood-paneled wall adds warmth and texture.

For the kids' room in the JWD Marq Home, I created this clean and minimal study area. The natural wood desk and rattan-back chair add charm and character, while the colorful rug and art keep the space feeling youthful and fun.

I believe even utilitarian spaces deserve to be beautiful. I did a full gut remodel of a small bathroom to create this super functional laundry room, with a stacked washer and dryer and a ventilated broom closet.

The adjoining maid's room was converted into a linen closet and laundry folding area. I included floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, a countertop for folding, and open shelves to add character and hold supplies.
