How to Make Over an Office

Lisa Quinn: Rob’s office makeover is finally complete but before we show you the rest of the room let’s take one last look at the way it was at the beginning of our show. If you remember this is a very typical office with pretty typical office furnishings. We couldn’t change a whole lot we have to keep the desk, we have to keep the office and we have to keep the forest green accent wall in the room so that were we got started. Take a look at what we’ve done now, we are able that actually bring a lot of personality and really kind of bring the office into the 21st century just with a few furniture pieces and a few accessories like all this pictures on the picture wall. I’m not going to lie, this was not the easiest project in the world that took awhile to get everything just so but it didn’t take a whole lot of time and we are able to do in an afternoon and as you see it makes some really big difference from this wall. The wall is really stork and green and the contrast was a lot in this room with all this pictures here in black in white that’s very important too and sort of close it down a little bit and Joe from Varsity Painting did an amazing job as usual putting this dark bright right color on three of the walls at this room. We also just cleaned up the desk a little bit and we brought in this nice leather desk pad, we have to keep the chairs we’ve got chair right here but we also brought into new chairs for Rob’s client. They’re modern, they’re fun, they’re venal so they’re easy to clean and they really make a modern touch in this room. We also needed some storage so what we decided to do is bring in this two belly bookcases. We’ve got doors on the bottom to hideout the clutter that maybe Rob doesn’t want everybody to see and then we also brought in all this magazine because when you’re advising people about there finances you are probably end up with a lot of papers and this is going to keep all those papers away and you can level unless you like and that way still they have this nice, neat appearance. If you remember from earlier too, it kind of mess going on, on this back wall. Be build up a venetian blinds and an old door on the side, and all I did was cover this up with this beautiful white cotton curtains. This kind of keeps it looking more attractive but also keeps a lot of the sun coming in so there is no glair on Rob’s computer. If Rob’s open the door or just wants a little sunlight they’re easy to open so it’s not got a lot of versatility. I love the way this turned out, we didn’t have a whole lot to work at the start now it wasn’t sure exactly how what is going turn out but I am really happy but more importantly we want to find out what Rob thinks so we are going to bring in right now.
