It looks like a fabulous workspace! Is the furnace room door the entrance to this room?

Thank you!

The entrance is on the top right between the desk and garbage can. The garbage can is actually curved so it shouldn’t stick out as much as it looks like in the picture (the dimensions in the picture are the max dimensions). The cart that is sitting next to the desk will only be there when I’m using it at the desk and be parked on the other side or by the easels otherwise. My husband is cutting the desk top for me so if needed I can make that a bit shorter to allow a bigger walkway as well.

I think as is in the picture the entrance is just under 2’. I can also move the garbage can to the other side of the room and I have some play with how close the billy bookshelf in the bottom right corner is as well. I figure I’ll firm it all up once we’re to the furniture stage and I can get a better feel for how much space there is.

Edited to add - there is no wall on the right side so the bookshelves are serving as the wall/room divider.

The lights are all behind you when sitting, will this be an issue?

I’m hoping that it will reflect off the walls and ceiling enough to fill the areas where there aren’t light. But I don’t think I’ll know for sure until I’m actually in the space and can iterate.

The lights look like this so I think the shape and cover will help with diffusing and helping the light not be super directional.

If I can’t figure out the ceiling lights I’ll augment with clamp lamps at the desk and easels.
