Working as the web admin for Sophie's World isn't all glamour, all the time. There's lots of typing. And clicking. And scrolling. And more clicking. And more typing.
But I do have the advantage of being able to work from home once in a while. I can't tell you how much I love not having to commute (or even brush my hair), but I lack a dedicated home office. When you're in a tiny-ass apartment, the space you have has to be multi-function, and your living space often doubles as your work space.
Dividing your living room by putting your desk against the back of your sofa is an idea that I love. It visually separates the two areas in such a way that if you're sitting down at your desk, it still feels like work time. And, if you're lounging on your couch, you can lazily put a drink on your new de facto sofa table without even getting up.
Check out some of the fab examples I've found online (yay Pinterest!).

I love these!! I have always loved the look of a desk behind a sofa. So cute!!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas!
ReplyDeleteThe space saving combination is becoming more and more influential in overall interior design. You can see elements filtering down to even the most widely available mass produced furnishings. None are executed as well as the pictures here though. Love the desk in the last pic.
ReplyDeletehey! I really love the idea. Placing the desk behind the sofa is good. Now, it is easier for me to watch tv while working in my laptop.
