I'm slowly clearing out a room to set up an office/creative/learning space. I've never really had that in my home before so I'm getting excited over all the possibilities.

I have a work office & I have come to learn there, that I really hate sitting at a desk. Time spent in this spot will be voluntary so I want it to be pleasant, obviously. I've thought about a standing desk, but I spend a lot of time standing and moving already... so I guess I'm leaning towards something of a floor sitting desk. Any for-purchase choices are horrid, though. I'm too short for a coffee table to function as desk space.

That leads me to building one, which pushes usefulness further into the future. I don't like that. I've never built furniture, so I do like that aspect. For the interem, I can stack books & plop a board on top, I suppose.

...because classy is my middle name.

A standing desk is the same height as a bar top, 42". Plenty of options for bar height stools and you can sit and work or stand without hunching over. This is how i configured my last home office. It worked for me.

Depending on how much surface space you need, a few shelf brackets, a plank and some wall space can become your workspace.

Great idea! I hadn't thought about brackets. That would probably work just fine for a time.
