Remembering 303 - Study Room

This is a luxury that is rare amongst new homes. We have a 4th bedroom which we converted into a study room, fully decked with all the essentials for working from home. Most new 5 rooms have a tiny area labeled as "suggested study" on floor plans. Ours is a full flight bedroom which can fit a king size bed and more.



We are not going to get this sort of space in our new home. We are dropping from 126 sqm to 119 sqm and loosing the study. Look at the end to end cupboards on both sides. Amazing storage space, space which we need to find for all the stuff to go to in the new home ... oops.

The room also holds many goodies which is not readily visible. And sadly we may not be able to replicate them in the new place.



Notice the overhead lighting shining on the monitor? It takes away the shadow being casted when I turn on the room lights. And best thing is its hidden behind cupboard. We are not building any overhead cupboards in the study so we're gonna have to get standing reading lights which may or may not do as good as these.


And behind my IMac and work laptop is the hidden trunking for the power and network cables, similar to those you find at the office.


Then there is the cabling setup in the tall cupboard. We have 2 Cat5e cables to the living room TV console and 2 in each bedroom. We also ran 2 ports to the left side of the study where we sat the network printer. We had this place wired up so well. I hope we can do the same in the new place but I'm realistic that we may not have a customised cupboard to hid all these wires.
