Office Update

I've been wanting to clean up the office upstairs for a while.  I also wanted to play with the Ikea butcher block countertop to create a floating desk.  Here is what the office looked like before:
And now:
It has one support leg, but the wall sides are floating. I also added some cable management under the desk, and a 5' power strip is mounted under there as well.  It's nice because you don't see any cables, but it still provides access to the back wall outlets.  The old desk had a back cover that made getting behind it a pain.

I may look at routing the wires to the wall-mount TV/Monitor inside the wall, but it's not a high priority right now.  I will look into doing some shelving on the wall soon, as I've lost some usable space with this setup.  This will also be a good chance to see how the countertop holds up to usage.  The desk itself is 8' long, which provides plenty of space.

Accent Paint

Here the paint is about 1/2 done, so with one coat it's a little splotchy on the wall, but gives a good feel for the color.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.

Accent Wall

Been meaning to add some color to the main living area for a while.
