I would recommend a door that goes back into the sides of space. But sorry I can't think what they are called. Maybe retractable? This then allows for space to be completely open without doors or hinges in the way. The only negative is that they do take up extra space when retracted back into sides of cabinet. Having a study desk separate from the bedroom, in my experience is a good idea. The bedroom is for the children to relax and chill, but the study desk is for work and concentration. And when they have finished study for the day, the doors can be closed without having to pack books away.

you could look at staining this one>? Bamboo Woven Ply - Bamboo Australia | Sunshine Coast or may I suggest a good detail joiner could make it to your custom panel sizing and finish it suitably for the kitchen splashbacks (if that is what it is for>?) I can suggest someone who would be able to custom make this if you wish.

Just look at the sunshine screaming into this living area!! I wouldn't mind which desk it is: all look fine to me. I would rearrange the laundry, loo bathroom onto the external wall so the bathroom has some fresh air and natural light. Just my take on it!! PS Love the dogs life if luxury!!!

It is in the arts and craft period style (around 1860-1910) Btw Morris is William Morris and he was definitely British (born Walthamstow, mainly lived in London and Kelmscott). Frank Lloyd Wright (an American) did a version (not like yours). There were many companies that produced lots of similar chairs to Morris, some had joints you could see and some hidden like yours. The shaped top of the back rest is unusual as most of the time are straight across. Maybe yours is an earlier version with Victorian influence and the darker wood gives a hint it could be? Are there any markings on the frame (number or name)? All the best, Louise, Decoro Custom Interiors - Window Treatment Specialist, Sydney
