In This Corner

No room for a home office? Carve out a tidy-

workstation from just a few square feet of space.

C O U N T E R I N T E L

Skip a conventional

desk and install a

narrow work surface

instead. This wood

top is mounted just

below the window—

the right height

in this case for a

barstool that can be

pulled into kitchen

duty when needed.

S U P P O R T G R O U P

Trade table legs for

built-ins with bonus

storage. The smaller

set of undercounter

shelves is turned 90

degrees. If installed

without a back, this

design makes books

accessible from

both sides.

A T A L L O R D E R

Enlist the natural

order that square

cubbies offer.

Here a floor-to-

ceiling cabinet

accommodates a

mix of accessories,

bins, and assorted

books and magazines.

Each category is

neatly contained

and displayed— no

chance of creating

an avalanche by

removing one thing. ■
