Hello 😊

Have a three bed house and second baby arriving this summer. Just hoping for some advice on how to reconfigure our main bedroom to allow for my work desk.
Considerations:

  • Would like to be able to somehow 'screen off' the desk when not in use but can't really do any 'foldaway' options as 2 screen set up.
  • Would like view from computer webcam not to show my bed!
  • Need to retain chest of draw as inherited family furniture

See plan in pics, my current set up is in red, plan in blue. Would need to find a desk to fit the alcove but just wondered if there's a better way or I'm missing a trick? Screen inspiration also appreciated.
Photo of the room when we bought included, we've decorated and updated the built in wardrobe but no substatial change.

Help so appreciated!

No genius ideas but my colleague has a fabric folding screen behind her which looks really good. I have no idea which room in her home she is using.

If you do something like this, I would have the side that you can see when you are not working, completely different to your work mode side.

My home office used to be in the bay window of our bedroom and I had a folding screen between that area and the rest of the bedroom
