While office areas are a space most homes require, they often take up ideal space that can be used otherwise. Offering a creative solution to this problem, design firm Moloney Architects created an office space that is fully concealable thanks to expertly placed wood sliding door panels.
When designing the home, Moloney Architects found a clever way to separate the office from the dining room with chic sliding door panels. Since the dining room had a spacious open-concept design, creating an office space that was slim but functional seemed to be a key focus. The office takes up a small space in the dining room with room for a desk, chair and shelves. The office can then be fully hidden from sight thanks to sliding wood panel doors that match the walls making the office seem as though it disappears entirely.
