This downstairs room was originally a great source of contention. "You got guests in my music room!" "You got music in my guest room!" But we get along well so we eventually figured out a way for an awesome music space to co-exist with a place for family and friends.
The pillow covers are from IKEA and I think the colors are nice with Phil's blue drum kit and the orange desk. The desk itself was an exciting find! We needed something big enough to hold music equipment (which is what will actually go there, not this tiny cat) but narrow enough to fit when the futon is unfolded. And I thought something wooden would look stodgy and not take advantage of the drums. We got a great deal on this
Milo Baughman desk at an antique store, I still can't get over how cool it looks. The chrome "X" legs are perfect with the drums.
When you come to stay you will sleep beneath the watchful eye of Isabella Rossellini, is that cool with you?
Just for funsies, here's what the downstairs looked like before we moved in, to compare:
The
newly-painted orange bathroom from the previous post is the room that connects here--don't you want to come stay over now?

Yes! I do! I love that desk.
ReplyDeleteI violently want that desk. It looks as if it will open up to a clavinet....which you should make happen. http://www.elecedge.com/waltersclav.html
