Regarding scanners for photos I prefer the flat bed type. Maybe just me - and the crappy Lexmark all in one we have but I feel I have far better control of the outcome with a flat bed. Downside? Huge, it needs so much desk or shelf space. Perhaps someone will stop by and tell both of us that a better all in one can do a good job as good as a flat bed.

I like the room. The art is nicely selected although I, too am wondering what the pictures above the sofa would look like in your living room. The clock doesn't seem well balanced in relation to the other side of the art. The loveseat looks a little cramped and I think you should consider either replacing the nightstand or nixing it altogether and using a floor lamp in it's place (that might help solve the balance issue). I like the bookshelves but would like to move the oranges and lemons to the kitchen. I think the desk should be addressed. It looks a little um, rustic, so perhaps a refinish or a paint finish. I hope you don't get offended at my nit picking. I happen to like your style very much and with a little tweaking in a more risky fashion, I think your spaces can be really fabulous.

We have made a spare bedroom into an office. This is my space mostly. McCloud has his computer in the other spare bedroom. I'll get a pic of his computer corner when he's off of it. LOL This is an old, corner unit that we keep threatening to replace but never seem to get around to it. It's set up pretty useful with a file cabinet under one section that we added. We also have an old bedroom dresser centered between two piers that held a sheet mirror and light bar over a bed. It's worked great for storage as a credenza.

May I suggest making a list of what you need in your office besides the two monitor screens? Do you need bookshelves? How many linear feet? Do you need file cabinets? How many linear feet? How much storage space for office supplies? I see you have a mirrored closet. Are you going to use that for out of season clothing or can that be converted into shelving for office supplies for half of it and a file cabinet placed in the other half? Will you be receiving clients for business meetings in that office? Do you need chairs and side tables and for business meetings in that room? Besides two monitor, what other electronic equipment will you be using? A laptop? A PC? A printer? A scanner? A CPU? Do you need an L shaped desk or just a straight desk? Do you want a desk with drawers? Do you need a bulletin board or a white board to think out projects? Do you want to take out the mirror doors and use the doors for this? Do you create create video presentations so that you need to block out the light and so need window coverings?
