Dear r/InteriorDesign community,
I humbly request your help: I’ve just moved into a new home and have a 6.62 × 3.57 m room (~23.6 m²) that I’d like to turn into my ultimate home office.
My main requirements/dreams are:
- Two proper workstations, each with 3 monitors
- A large, solid-wood desk : custom-built
- Lots of completely free desk surface beyond the computer setups. I love having space to spread out documents, books, projects, etc.
- A substantial library/bookshelf area
- Plenty of elegant closed storage
- Good circulation : I don't want the room to feel crammed with furniture
The room has a somewhat unusual geometry because of the sloped ceiling. The maximum ceiling height is 2.39 m, with the lowest points at 0.95 m on one side and 1.41 m on the other. Obviously, the door and window also need to remain fully usable.
The pictures attached are AI-edited versions of the actual room, simply to remove all the boxes and furniture currently in there - I literally just moved in, so the real room is still full of cartons!
I'm especially interested in ideas about desk shape and placement, how to exploit the low areas under the slopes, bookshelf/storage placement, and what to do with the large central area.
One important detail: I'm reasonably well equipped for woodworking, so this does not need to be based on off-the-shelf furniture. I'm very happy to build the desks, shelving and cabinetry myself if that's what it takes to make the best use of the room.
And if you help me come up with something great, I promise to come back and post updates of the actual build.
Thank you very much for any ideas, sketches, criticism or completely different approaches!
