I saw this link on Loobylu: people's studio spaces. Fantastic! I love seeing these as I am trying to plan what I want in my art/craft room in the new house. I realize though that every one of these features hardwood floors and mine will have carpet, which obviously will be terrible if I decide to paint or do any sort of messy crafts. Some of the studios shown are so incredibly tidy and organized its ridiculous.
I think the key for any living space as well, is good lighting.
