As some of you know my wife started her own business back in February in realestate apprasing after working for a firm here in Hickory for 12 years. Things are going very well and and I am going to build the LOML "nice" office furniture.
I plan on large desk (more like a large work surface with out file drawers, kind of open underneath) to sit in the middle of the room. I am thinking of a surface about 8'x3' that might even kind of wrap around the user. When she works she has research material laying all over the place including piles on the floor around her chair. It actually looks like a paper grenade went off in her office. I want it to look cool but be functional for her as well with lots of storage near her work station.
In addition to the desk ,I want to build a long Credenza and/or built inn file cabinets to stretch 8' down a wall that are three drawers high for plenty of file storage with the top of the file cabinets being continous providing a real built in look and additional work surface for organizing mail, reports, bills, etc..
I will take as much input as I can get on the design and construction of office furniture. I purchased one book and was not really happy with the material. Any sources, plans and and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
