Hi everyone
I'm just looking for inspiration/ideas and recommendations for a chippy if I'm lucky. I have a 13 x 13 ft (sorry metric-lovers!) room with a fireplace to use as my study and I'm having difficulty finding ideas on kitting it out with shelves, desks, cupboards etc. in keeping with my old house.
Most of the pictures of studies that I see are either designed on a space-saving-under-the-stairs kind of way or they are ultra-modern. I want my one to be a cross between a living room with no telly and a library but with space to study (with lots of desk space) and work on my PC as well as use my sewing machine.
Any of the built-in furniture people I've spoken to are into kitchens and don't have experience of what I'm looking for so it looks like I'm going to have to completely design it myself and then try and find a proper carpenter to do it for me.
Has anyone ever done something like this? Where do I start? I'm afraid it'll either end up a total haymes or that I'll get scared off doing anything at all.
