I love combining spaces for different purposes. My dining room is also my office (I am a full time freelancer). To achieve that, invested into a huge, 14 person folding table, and it is used daily is my work space (folded, and moved to the window). Once we have guests, it is moved to the middle of the dining room, and expanded to accommodate everyone. There is a bench that is used instead of chairs, and it is neatly tucked in under the desk when not in use. So, my office can literally get transformed into a formal dining room.

I also share the large Ikea Expedit shelf (5x5) in the same space, with my toddler. I get top two shelves for books and papers and photos, and she gets bottom three shelves for her toys and books. They are all packed inside the bins that fit neatly within the Expedit squares. This brings me to a third transformer room in our house - living room is also used as a family room, where my child can play, while I work, while my husband can still occupy the couch :)
