Client Project... Office Design

How many of us have a small space that becomes the "drop it there," "put it in the office," "I will file it later" spot?  My client {we just finished her master bedroom} has such a room and was desperately ready to have it organized and looking respectful!  

Before:





Sorry no after pics just yet... 
For now we are keeping the color, so the finishes had to compliment that.  My client wanted not to spend a whole lot of money in this space, but still make it functional and presentable since it is right off of the kitchen.  I personally believe that this is the best place use Ikea furniture!  I know we have all tried to make our break from it {my client included} but sometimes it comes in handy.  She needed a whole lot of storage for books, and a place to keep all of the loose magazine ripping for future recipes and ideas.  She also wanted a place to charge all of her computers and a landing spot for mail and things to be sorted.  It is a small place with a lot of faces!

Here are the 3 space plans and coordinating design option I came up with...







She has selected a design plan and a space plan, and most of the items have been purchased.  Here is a small peak..

sorry for the bad iPhone pic... 

What design would you pick?

I like elements from all 3. I love the color on the file cabinet. Does it look good against the walls? That rangey/gold color is a bit overpowering. I especially like that corner bookcase. Is that from IKEA too?

Nice plans! What color did you use on the file cabinet? I think it's the perfect hue for mine!

LOVING the color of that file cabinet. I think I'd choose #1 or 2, but they all look like great options!
