Now THIS is the one I’ve been waiting to show you. When we first started looking for a new home, I knew that I wanted some kind of office space/playroom adjacent to the living area, so that the whole family can still hang out together when we’re all doing different things. And the house we ended up in did have a (very) small bonus room, but it didn’t open onto the living room, and felt stuffy and oddly proportioned, so it basically ended up becoming a receptacle room for all the stuff we didn’t know what else to do with.
A trash dump, in other words.
Not ideal.
So: I worked with a pro I found on Thumbtack (I just searched “carpenter” and then filled out the straightforward form with the details of the project I was hoping to accomplish) to turn it into…
Well, you’ll see.
It’s a pretty crazy transformation.
