With feng shui as my guide, I am attempting to design a quadrant of my apartment into a home office. For the past seven months, I propped my laptop computer on my, err, lap; and while I may still do that, it would be less frequent as I now have a proper desk that I bought yesterday at IKEA.
After assembling the desk today (very easy) and moving existing furniture around to maximize space and comfort (not very easy as I kept changing my mind), I think I’m set for now. I still have some organizing to do (taking clutter off the floor, consolidating multiple bins’ and baskets’ worth of stuff, buying a floor plant, buying another floor lamp, etc.), but apartment life is much nicer-looking now than yesterday.
Comparing the living room with the office room, here are some pictures (which can be clicked on for a larger view).

Nice desk. You need to organize all your papers!!
It certainly looks better than before, though you might want to find a way to conceal all of those papers so that they are organized, but out of the way – maybe a nice set of colored boxes? Also, I think you might want to consider upping the Feng Shui energy by adding a few brighter colors – maybe some red for luck and prosperity? It feels like the lighter colors are washing away your energy – but then again, I am just looking at a picture. If it feels right to you, why change it?
