Loft Storage

This Spring, we re-decorated our loft, which houses our home office. In the photo above, you can see how the room looked after we got the floor installed and the walls painted, but before the closet doors were hung and the desks moved back in. We had a contractor install the flooring, and also asked him to build a "box" in what had been an open space between the left-most closet and the kneewall of the loft. It was the silliest wasted space, but once a box was installed, it was the perfect place for the color laser printer. AND, rather than wasting the space inside the box, Gerry thought to have an opening/access from inside the closet. See it on the left side of the closet?

Now that we're done decorating and have moved back in, the closet houses some off-season clothing, but mostly it's filled with storage bins, file cabinets, and office supplies. I store printer paper there (my computer desk is closest to this closet) and some spare purses on the shelf. As you can see by the photo below, Cosmo also thinks Gerry had a great idea.
