Haddon's room strikes me as being incredibly personable: the wood floor, the doors at the end of the room, the art, the odd light fixture. His chair is also intriguing. My only concern is it seems to be a very warm feeling space, and I would most likely have difficulties remaining awake while burning the midnight oils. It also strikes me as being somewhat dim. I'd pop a few lights in there, brighten it up. That would help with the whole issue of warmth, as well. But I find the prospect of walking out those doors and finding a garden of some sort is incredibly tempting.
Lodge's space is all about business, and I despise the floor. Other than that, though, it seems incredibly well-suited to churning out pages upon pages of essays, or perhaps opening up the Biochem book. I love the windows and the overhead adjustable lights. The bookcase being situated behind the desk is also a nice touch - it opens up the space a bit. If it were my space, I'd ditch the telephone.
I'll post a picture of my own space some time soon, perhaps a 'before' and 'after' cleaning picture, as well. Obviously, it doesn't even approach the level of these spaces, but I suppose that's part of the dreams we possess as students.
