Life Changes/New Office
By Lisa Peck, ASID
We recently worked on creating a new home office from a small bedroom for a client who was returning to school while working full-time.
The designers of LiLu had helped her in the past with projects ranging from furnishing their living room, remodeling a bathroom, and consulting on updates in their kitchen. Her need for an organized, quiet space to study and still have room for her calligraphy hobby had them calling LiLu once again.
A small space was available and she needed two separate work spaces, a super comfy chair and a light, relaxed, airy look that would welcome her when she studied. She wanted to want to be in the space instead of dreading it.

By combining custom built-ins with catalog finds and creating a custom rug from yard goods we created a feminine, light, airy space for our client to study, read and work at her hobby and met her budget.
