This is hard question to answer -- simply because the answers depend on how you like a room to feel when you are working! I really like the depth and tone of the paint color -- and think it will work well for an office BUT our own home office/guest room is painted in deep olive! Soooooo ... do you like to work in bright sunny "open" rooms -- or do you like cozy spaces for work? IF you do like a cozy space -- remember to add LOTS of lamps around the whole space. We have two very tall buffet lamps on the main desk -- and a swing-arm lamp over the sofa bed AND a smaller lamp over an antique cupboard! Lighting options can be a key element to making an office space work well. For the back wall -- I would recommend bookcases or bookshelves! For example -- check out the "Billy" bookcases at Ikea. Those bookshelves come in two heights -- you could do two tall bookcases at each end of the wall -- and then a shorter one in the middle. Add an artwork over the smaller bookcase. Add bookcase lighting to the taller ones. Or you could add a long thin console table or cabinet -- with three large bulletin boards over the table -- cover with co-ordinating fabric to the rest of the room. Or check out "art.com" -- and simply broswe through categories that might appeal to you and see if a particular artists name might keep cropping up! I've included a hot link over to art.com -- and a selection from my favorite artist -- Chardin -- from the 18th century. Rich extraordinary colors. Another more modern artist is Nicole Etienne. Check out her artworks at art.com. Other possible art selections -- could be maps (new, old, vintage) of places that you might have lived or visited or hope to visit. Or perhaps a grid of (new, old or vintage) botanical prints? Or perhaps a grid of black-and-white photos of local sites or architecture of your area? Hope this helps!

I have bought several rugs from Main Street Orientals in Maryland. They are very reputable and carry only high quality items. I would not hesitate in buying from them and having them ship something to you. They have several on their website that fit your measurements and have a sale going on. See them at https://www.mainstreetorientalrugs.com/collections/2x3 As regards the comment about never putting a rug in a bathroom: I wash my less expensive small orientals myself - gentle swishing with Tide in warm water and a lot of rinsing with cold water. I put mine in the tub and after washing let the shower run for about 5 minutes on them to rinse.

THE RULE Is don't make a second post!! Go to a real carpet store, ask to see stair runners that come in 36 inch widths.Have it made to the length you need and backed with non skid. Or look at area rugs in 3 x 5 for the entry if that fits.. No doormat sizes. Ready made runners will be too narrow for your space No to the rug under table. You need an 8 x10 and I doubt that fits. Nothing is far better, than a too small rug.

I agree that the rug needs to be bigger. It looks like the first rug is sissal. If it is, I think you need a softer rug underfoot. Darker colors will hide dirt better, how often do you plan to have it cleaned. Shag rugs are harder to keep looking nice especially if you plan to have heavy traffic in that atea. Nothing too busy, if you are trying yo keep your clients/patients calm and focused. I agree that some type of coffee table is needed. Maybe add a plant/tree on the side of the sofa .
