One of the biggest pros about living in a loft is the sheer amount of space. But incorporating a home office in a room that pulls triple duty (living room, dining room, play room) can be a bit of a challenge, especially when it comes to the separation of "work space" and "home space."
If you are puzzling out a home office corner in your open-plan living space, provide a lot of storage and shelving as it will give your work-related books, magazines, and other necessities a designated space and help keep your work contained in that corner of the room.

Anyone know those chairs?
Is it just me, or are those bookshelves crooked? Maybe it's an optical illusion from the camera angle, but my, it looks frightening with all those heavy books....
spaceagemouse, either the shelves are crooked or the ceiling isn't level. I don't know which is worse.
I don't know that it's all that hard. I live in a 3000 sq ft raw loft in downtown LA, and as I don't have interior walls, I don't have lots of space to hang selves. Thus, the joy of the Expedit--bookcase, room divider, and trusted friend.
Desk, chair, printer table, Expedit. Lather, rinse, you know the rest.
I was just thinking the same thing about the crooked shelves. That would drive me nuts.
Yep - They're crooked...
...perhaps they didn't want to use bookends.
:-\
Optical illusion. Think Greek columns.
it's lens distortion, but the walls and ceiling may very well not be square.
i am wondering where they got the shelves. most aren't made to hold that much weight.
