Dollhouse Decorating - Elegant Home Office

In real life, a home office does not have to hidden behind louvered doors in an extra closet, The same is true in contemporary room boxes or dollhouses. Here is one example of how to do it in a tiny space, and still have this work area fit in with elegant surroundings.

In the picture with the butterfly print on the wall, the sofa was moved to the center of the living room, using the space behind as a home office. A glass-top desk and narrow credenza have just enough room behind the sofa. With this arrangement, if the TV is centered in front of the sofa, and the desk is too, you can have entertainment while you work.

For me, there's a big negative with this plan. I dislike seeing a big, flat-screen TV on a living room wall. The pictures with the rust-colored walls show how I handled this for a client.









I bought a stretcher at Michaels, boxed in the telly with 1X4s and stapled a piece of Marimekko fabric art to it. The stylized poppy picture is easily removed when it's time to zone-out with the tube. Why not do the same in a miniature?
