Previous clients Stuart & Anne Cowgill approached us to design and install an office to their home in Headroomgate. The room presented more than a few challenges being a turret tower protruding from the corner of the main house. It has six sides leading off from the main room and the six window sils are only 500mm off the floor.
The main obstacle of putting furniture in front of windows with low sils was overcome by setting all the furniture forward and free of the walls by 100mm and then wrapping Corian seamlessly over and down the back and sides which also had the useful beneift of creating channels for cables. And becuse we used Corian we were able to machine it to every angle, twist and turn with the end result that there are no visible joins in the surface anywhere.
The popular coordination of gloss Oyster doors on a dark walnut cabinet made for a striking look when set against the lighter beech blinds and floor.
The floor space remains spacious for comfortable swivel office chairs and the extra depth tops allow IT equipment to be accessible yet out of the way of everyday functions.
The project cost excluding the blinds and flooring that the client sourced was £7'200.00 inclusive of VAT.
