that looks nice but I think i like the idea of something custom better, particulary given my particular dimensions etc
I'm coming round to the idea of sanding and painting the walls in here (and still keeping pegboard over one of them). Otherwise it'll just annoy me that I didn't 'do it right' from the beginning.

yeah, fair enough! obviously the ikea bamboo version is not quite as nice as the teak shelved original that it's referencing (/ blatantly ripping off) but $$$ etc.
https://www.vinterior.co/furniture/storage/shelves/poul-cadovius-modular-storage-system-1960sthe thing i liked about it is that it's off the shelf, but also semi-customisable with varying shelf depths / cupboards / desk unit
i trimmed the length of the shelves on mine to fit into an alcove.come to think of it, it would be easy to put some pegboard in-between the uprights - might do that at some point!
i also considered an office in the cupboard under the stairs, but ended up with a floating desk in the dining room instead as i didn't want to lose the cupboard storage space and also the idea of working in a cupboard didn't really appeal.
i used this ikea system;

also went with a 32" monitor that doubles up as a TV for the dining room
