Computer Desk Hutch

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted here. Things have been busy at work — and school is out for the summer. I’ve been working to rearrange my home studio/office. Things were getting a bit cramped and I haven’t much felt like creating in the room, so I designed and built a simple hutch for my computer desk.

One of my goals for the summer was to learn how to user Sketchup. Here’s a first sketch of the old room layout.

Once I got the hang of using Sketchup’s “inference engine,” things started getting easier. Here’s the design of my hutch as well as a side table I made out of a recycled desk.

New Studio Layout

Here are a few phots of the process.
