Muddling with Mudroom Design/Decor
Comments (26)lishaana - Beautiful space, and I love the built-ins! Your cabinetry is actually very similar to ours, and I like how it is just part of the house. Our wall space is shorter than yours, but I'm sure something could still be done with it. I just thought it would be prohibitively expensive. Are those drawers or tilt-outs on the bottom? aunttomichael - Sawdust City ships very reasonably, and that's an important consideration too. They make a bench that looks a lot like the PB bench with storage underneath. bronwynsmom - I think I'm interested in the rugs for their decorative purposes too. I don't want high-maintenance though. oakleyok - I like the dark cushion too, with the white bench. Without having custom made, I'm wondering if the whites would look close but not close enough or something. Jan...See MoreMCM eye candy (xpost from decor)

Comments (1)I disagree. I've sat in some well designed wood dining chairs that were very linger-able. I wonder about a bent wood or molded plastic chairs for comfort cleanability. Maybe this?https://www.roveconcepts.com/rove-classics_norman-side-chair.html...See MoreHow to decorate this MCM loft overlooking great room
Comments (3)The short answer is that you style it for whatever use you will have for it. A reading nook isn't a bad idea, but since it's open to the downstairs it's not going to be quiet if the TV is on downstairs. If this isn't going to be an issue it could work for quiet time. It looks like the previous owners had old furniture up there. I certainly don't think you should buy new furniture for it if you don't think you're going to use it. I have a loft also, although mine is not as big as yours. Mine has a daybed and a big comfy chair (old). The daybed is used very infrequently (when one particular set of out of town guests come to visit). Most of the other people in my development have home offices setup in theirs. Since most of the people who live here are retired, these aren't serious home offices in most cases. For a serious home office you need to be able to close a door to it. Since this house is new to you, you might want to just live there for a while before you do anything with this space and see if a need presents itself. There are so many things to do when you move and I think your time will be better spent focusing on areas in the house you use more often....See Morecawaps
