Cornered

Packing a home office and guest room into a 10'x14' room may not be ideal but it can work.  I'm helping a client design a multi-use space right now and as much as she should like to have the full bed centered in the room with a nightstand on either side, it's just not going to happen. The room is small and they have enough paperwork to fill about 10 filing cabinets. Because two full walls are pretty much taken over with the biggest closet doors you have ever seen and awkward windows we are forced to get really creative with how the hell we are going to fit a bed, storage and a double desk in the room AND make it look good.

Enter the corner headboard.  Super chic, right?  Placing the bed in the corner frees us space in the center of the room and the double headboard anchors the bed making it's placement feel purposeful.  Pack it with pillows and you've got yourself a crazy awesome daybed just asking to be lounged on.  I wish Ballard made their Isabella corner bed in a full but they don't so we'll have to do custom.  I'll keep you posted on the progress...I'm thinking nubby linen with Pucci pillows. Oh snap.
