The final parts of our bathroom remodel have barely been in place, and again we're taking on a remodeling project. This time, we're going to have the closet in our office removed. That will convert the house from a 4-bedroom house to a 3-bedroom one, but since we don't really plan on selling it anytime soon, I'm not worried about its reduced marketability.
Amazingly enough, this will all happen this weekend! We spent last night cleaning out the office to prepare it for the work. We're going to use a subcontractor who we really like that worked on our bathroom. Assuming we can also get the brackets and melamine soon, he'll install our 3 10' bookshelves as well.
The biggest benefit for this will be to force us to clear out just about all the junk that had accumulated in the office over the years. But besides that, the new configuration will allow us to make a much better home office for Donna. Right now, trying to get any real work done in that space, while competing with the other uses of the room and its generally trashed state, is very difficult.
This desktop-picture-sized 3D mock-up of our office has all of the previous furniture in it (in their old locations) but has the closet removed.
