    Home Office - lots of pics

    I just finished this customer today. A big job, the painting was very time consuming but other than a few bumps in the road I am incredibly pleased with the result.

    All of the pieces fit into a small 8 x 10 room with high ceilings and big windows...take a look

    If you are standing at the door, you look at the side of the corner unit, and then on the right of the door is the desk.

    Here are more of the desk photos and the display above the desk for photos

    (One file drawer and 2 banks of 4 drawers each.)

    last one

    Here is a funky pop up shelf that is under the window, he wanted it to spread plans out on when he was working at the desk...

    Thanks for looking.

    That's a sweet suite of furniture there! You should be pleased with the result.

    Nice job! Painting, while time-consuming, can hide a lot of mistakes!

    Hey, they look great! I'm sure the customer is going to be very satisfied with the new office. There's nothing I like more than lots of doors to hide my big mess. I really like how the white cabinets fit into the overall look of the room. Their color on the walls really makes the furniture stand out all the more. Good job.

    Beautiful stuff!!

    Question - Is the desk just notched around the baseboard heat? And how does that effect/affect (I never know which) heat flow?

    I'm in the process of making a kitchen unit for some folks and more of the baseboard would be covered by the cabinetry so I decided to keep the bottom open.

    Your work is very beautiful!

    Thanks everyone...the next large project I have is also paint...so I have been thinking about how I will do it without the doubling of all the efforts that I made...

    I may wait to paint a lot of it on site after install...it will mean more days of travelling to installations but less time painting.

    I will let you know, I am starting that project on Monday.
