My current T's office is different from the office of the T I saw before him. ExT had a nice enough office but it was very much a standard office room with a desk and a desk chair, and two comfortable arm chairs with a small table in between, for her and the client. I don't remember much else of the room, it didn't feel very personal. (I looked at a photo of it on the web just now - there's an interview with my exT in a psychology blog I used to read, and a pic of her office room. It has a wooden floor, which is unusual in an office - I had forgotten about that.)

Current T has an office that's on the top floor of a building; his office door is one flight of stairs down from the actual office so you walk up the stairs directly into the office room. The room has a high ceiling (with a skylight) and exposed rafters. I think it's an extremely comfortable room, and the walls are so thick that most sounds are shut out, which makes it seem very secure. The lack of a visible door also creates a feeling of a secure enclosed space. There is a couch, which I lie on, in one part of the room - it's fairly hard and not what I would think of as a "shrink couch", but it's comfortable enough. (As long as I remember to lie down as high up as I can, because it's only just long enough for me and sometimes I end up with my feet sticking out under the arm rest ) At the other end of the room are two comfortable armchairs, where we used to sit before I decided to try lying on the couch, and in a corner a desk. There are no family photos or anything like that, which I appreciate. It is Ts working space, of course, but it is also my personal safe space, and I like that it is not invaded by other people.
