The all white hi-tech Ikea style look wouldn’t work in a 100 year old brick city two flat, so we decided to go with a rustic look - plus any mismatches or damage only adds to the “character.” 
Limited space to work with, and this had to work for my wife and me, so we had to get creative with storage and the desk.
Small space so it’s hard to fit in one photo…
