Home OfficesHome offices and libraries are one of our areas of specialty and can be as varied as our customer's lifestyle. Our cabinetry can, and has, included bookcases, desks, computer areas, and display shelves.The most important consideration for both the office and library is function. A home office should be every bit as functional as the kitchen. Several factors contribute to functionality. Some of the more important factors are ergonomics, lighting, desk space, and overall layout. The layout can depend on a wide variety of factors ranging from how frequently our customer intends to use the space, to whether the user is left or right handed. When we design a home office or library for our customers we try to achieve a balance of many different factors to give them the best overall design for the space available and the use desired. |
