The study on
the ground floor is also connected to the wood deck, ideal for working whilst
supervising children playing outside. Again this should allow for easy
ventilation in the hot summer months and reduce reliance on air conditioners.
The original plans featured a door and window although we recently opted to
replace these with a French door. Aside from being slightly cheaper, this will
allow for more air-flow and more light although we will probably need to put a
curtain across it to regulate any glare hitting the computers.
By the French doors
will be a small sofa and coffee table and a large desk will run along the
northern wall. The fitted desk offered by the building company have been
removed from the plans to bring the cost down, although we may end up
reinstating this at a later stage if we can’t find anything we like in the
stores. The desk will need to accommodate two desktop computers and we will
also need a place to store paperwork and files, both of which are beginning to
overwhelm our small apartment. Around the remaining walls of the study, we
intend to use IKEA’s famous BILLY bookcases. These are highly customizable,
practical, sturdy and, most importantly, extremely cheap.
