I have absolutely no creativity when it comes to things like design, clothing, conversation, etc. I am at a loss for how I should layout my home office. I have a pretty decent sized space to work with, about 24 ft. x 15 ft. I have a desk and two bookshelves and I want to fill out the other half of the room. I really want to make it “feel” like an office. I’m currently thinking about:
- A second desk for the occasional pair programming session
- A couch/table for a mini “reception” area
- A conference table
But I don’t want it to be too crowded or too sparse. The couch would be a nice place for me to lounge and read books (can’t do this upstairs in the living room with a 2 year old and wife) but a conference table in my basement would be so cool.
Of course there’s the issue of how to pay for it all. We have so far resisted the urge to put anything on our credit cards and everything we’ve bought has been with cash, so we don’t have a lot of extra spending money right now.
EBay has some good deals…. hmm…
